Designed a device to support individuals experiencing nighttime disturbances such as nightmares or sleep-related behaviors. The system detects physiological and behavioral indicators of wakefulness or distress and responds with a gentle, patterned light stimulus to interrupt the episode and promote awareness. Optional audio cues—such as personalized voice reminders or guided calming prompts—can be integrated to reinforce grounding, intention-setting, or relaxation practices. The design emphasizes non-invasive intervention, user agency, and customizable responses to nighttime dysregulation.
