About this project
Nuvi was developed based on extensive brainwave experimentation and research. It is a “smart” sleeping aid system made for the modern age - practical and highly efficient.
Meet Nuvi
Nuvi is a smart sleeping mask embedded with a Bluetooth system. It integrates the slim speakers, lighting LED and an app to implement powerful sleep aid programs.
7 SMART PROGRAMS
Nuvi has 7 smart programs, they are Easy Sleep, Smart Deep Sleep Booster (inside Easy Sleep program), Smart Wake Up, Lucid Dream, Power Nap, Light Energizer and Jet Lag Adjust program. All of the programs are operated via mobile phone app.
Lucid Dream
Lucid Dream is requested by backers and created from stretch goal. It is based on the study, most of the dreams happen at the last stage before wake up. We set up a sequence of flashes red light to induce the lucid dream.
1. Easy Sleep
Our specifically composed Zen music mix with binaural beats and the dimming sound effect can truly soothe your mind effectively, lead you sleep onset quickly and bridge you to your deep sleep smoothly. For sure Nuvi also has the white noise for you to choose to block out the environmental interruptions, so you can not only fall asleep, but stay asleep.
2. Smart Deep Sleep Booster
Inside the Easy Sleep program there is a Smart Deep Sleep Booster program features with whispering Zen music and binuaral beats after the Easy Sleep program smartly induce your slow brain waves lead you enter the deep sleep again in the middle of your sleep.
3. Smart Wake Up
The smart alarm is designed to wake you up gently and naturally with the blue light and music from your light sleep phase. It takes you from sleep to wakefulness without usual grogginess, leaving you feeling much more refreshed. Moreover, it wakes you up but not disturbing your partner.
4. Lucid Dream
Inside the Smart Wake Up program, there is a Lucid Dream function which can be set in 2 hours time period to induce the lucid dream before wake up. You can enjoy the reality of the lucid dreams.Check this out you can know more about the details of LUCID DREAM

Mostly, if you are struggling with a.m. brain fog or having seasonal affective disorder or depression. Try LIGHT ENERGIZER!
You can wear the mask for 20 minutes with blue light to recharge your energy. It is able to lift your mood and help you feel more awake. Recent studies have demonstrated the better effectiveness of short wavelength blue light (approximately 460 nm) with better phase shifting properties when compared to the rest of the visible light spectrum. It improves alertness, diminishes and drowsiness.
7. Jet Lag Adjust
With its specially designed flashing blue light program, which can alleviate the negative effects of the jet lag.
Who is Nuvi for?
Nuvi is an excellent gadget for people who are long distance travelers, long working hour designers, night shift workers, insomnia sufferer and people who care their healthy lifestyle.
EEG Experiment and test
We did the EEG brain waves test at the Medical school by using Neurosky Mindwave EEG sensing technology, which is highly complied with Biopac system in clinical brain waves test.
Before using the Nuvi, the tester was highly awaken with beta brain waves. See Brain waves picture A.
After wearing Nuvi the Easy Sleep program with Zen music starts, which includes binaural beats. After 5 minutes the tester's brain waves quickly drop to low Alpha waves and afterwards change to slow Theta brain waves. See Brain waves picture B.
That means Nuvi can highly clear the mind of the tester and help him fully relax and fall asleep easily. See brain waves picture C.
Product Comparison
Technology should make complex things into simple and make our lives easier. We follow this golden rule and develop the Nuvi for practical use.
Note: Nuvi Easy Sleep Program has been tested by Neurosky Mindwave EEG Brain waves test to make sure it effectively induces people's slow brain waves and makes them feel sleepy.
If you are looking for a practical sleep aid and jet lag adjusting device, then Nuvi is the best and affordable sleeping mask you deserve to have!

Design Concept
Beautiful designed in and out
Nuvi design concept was inspired by the paraglider canopy. it has to give you the impression of flying high in the sky, cruising over the mountains, fields and beaches freely.
To develop the ideal sleeping mask, our team has gone through numerous prototypes in search of perfection.
What's inside?
We have integrated all of the electronic parts on printed circuit boards. There is no signal interference. The Bluetooth's system board, speakers, and LEDs have been integrated in an innovative way to fit into a relatively small silicone case. The result is a masterpiece of engineering on the inside and a masterpiece of design on the outside.

Our Team
We are a small team full of enthusiasm for sharing our work and providing our backers, friends, and clients with a healthy life style.
Story
A lot of my ex-colleagues and friends are frequent flyers. They suffer a lot from lack of sleep and jet lag issues. It took them weeks to recover, which impacted their normal life as well as their working performance.
Coincidentally, in this March, we participated in Orange Fab Asia campaign as a guest where we met their Asia Chairman Mr. Wang who is a frequent flyer as well. He suggested us to create a smart lightweight sleep mask without a clumsy measuring device which would be easy to use. One that not only could help to sleep easily and would also adjust the jet lag at an affordable price. He deeply believed this mask could help lots of people. This matched with our primary idea that motivated us to come up with the solution as quickly as possible.
To develop this ideal sleeping mask, our team not only studied countless online reviews, purchased many top selling sleep masks for studying but also did the prototypes for testing. It took us months of trying to implement the idea from sketch to prototype 1, 2 and 3. Finally, we came up the Nuvi, a simple sleep aid device that is easy to carry and operate and packed features that help you sleep, wake up and adjust your jet lag.
Additionally, to prove Nuvi is working efficiently, we did the brain wave experiment and tested it in the medical school. The results were very impressive and showed it helps to relax and induces sleepiness by Zen music and binuarial beats. For the jet lag adjustment, we are following the study finds - the flashing blue light exposure could provide a fast and efficient method of preventing jet lags. We believe Nuvi will not only help long distance travelers but also assists more people with getting better sleep and improving their quality of live.
