Dormio / TDI

Eidolon is based on the MIT Media Lab's Dormio study.

In targeted dream incubation, a quiet, themed prompt played at the onset of sleep influenced what participants reported thinking about. We are building a product that makes that window usable without a lab setup — deliberately, and without claiming the study's results for everyone, every night.
