Muse is an immersive meditation device that provides real-time feedback on your mental activity, heart rate, breathing, and body movements to help you build a consistent meditation practice.

Muse S (Gen 2) is an EEG-powered sleep & meditation device that is designed to help you fall asleep and guides you back to sleep if you wake up. All-new Digital Sleeping Pills respond to changes in brain activity and are designed to cue your brain to sleep.

The idea of a device or application with biofeedback is extremely interesting and relevant. Here is a lot of detailed information about how to use it for sleep. Can you tell me more about how this app is used for meditations? Does it provide guided meditations, or does the user practice their own kind of meditation, receiving biofeedback from the app? What exactly does this biofeedback consist of? Does the app assess the success of meditation based on physiological indicators (decrease/increase in heart rate, change in activity and predominance of brain waves)?

As a biofeedback app developer I am willing to receive an answer, too.

👋 Hi all! It’s been a while since we launched the Muse 2 meditation headband on Product Hunt and a LOT has happened in the world at large since then. Like many others, working remotely for the past 18 months has been challenging for our team of neuroscientists, engineers, and creators, but today, we’re super excited to launch what we believe is revolutionary in the world of sleep innovation and technology. The next generation of our Muse S EEG-powered meditation and sleep headband not only gives you real-time biofeedback as you meditate and measures your brain’s activity while you sleep, but also includes a never-before-seen non-pharmaceutical sleep intervention that we are REALLY excited to share with the world: Digital Sleeping Pills. 💤 Beyond Sleep Tracking ----------------------------------- We know from our customers that while sleep tracking is helpful to understanding the quality of their sleep, it doesn’t provide immediate relief when they need to actually fall asleep. This is why we designed the research and technology behind Muse S (Gen 2) to go beyond sleep tracking and provide immediate sleep support with Digital Sleeping Pills. ✨💊 Digital Sleeping Pills Technology ----------------------------------------------- Digital Sleeping Pills are a new type of intelligent sleep experience that uses natural changes in your brain activity to modulate your sleep experience and cue your brain for sleep. If you wake in the night, that same technology is used to automatically guide you back to sleep again for your best rest. ✨💊 Are There Different Types of Digital Sleeping Pills? ---------------------------------------------- Yes. We wanted to offer a variety of different Digital Sleeping Pills so users could find the sleep experience that works best for them including: 💊 Original, Classic, and Adventure Sleep Stories 💊 Ambient Soundscapes 💊 Sleep Biofeedback Soundscapes 💊 Sleep Meditations 🚀 Muse S (Gen 2) Hardware Upgrades ---------------------------------------- 🚀 Faster Charging Time 🚀 Improved Battery Performance 🚀 Wider Size Range 🚀 Upgraded Signal Quality 👉🏻 Additional Details ---------------------- 👉🏻 Simply pair your Muse to your mobile device, launch the Muse app, and put on your favourite headphones to enjoy the immersive real-time dynamic audio soundscapes. 👉🏻 Compatible with most smartphones and tablets 👉🏻 Connects to the Muse app via Bluetooth to be used with a variety of Apple and Android devices 👉🏻 Muse app can be downloaded from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store 🎁 Don’t forget to use code LAUNCH15 for 15% off Muse S (Gen 2) Bundles 🎁 Our goal at Muse is to help people live healthier, happier, more connected lives through human-centered technology. By providing an effective, EEG-powered non-pharmaceutical sleep intervention we aim to push our neurofeedback devices into a new realm that makes getting your best rest a tangible reality. We’re hungry for your feedback and thoughts! With gratitude, Chris Aimone, CTO & Co-founder

I can't wait to try Muse S... Has the team conducted any research on the effectiveness of Muse S and sleep quality improvements?

@bryncdn Yes we have! A recent 2021 study led by Western University, Cambridge Brain Science, Hatch, and Interaxon that used Muse S EEG-sleep support technology showed a 20% improvement in the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, relative to controls wanting to improve their sleep. The study used our first gen Muse S device!

Muse offers a nice SDK on both iOS and Android. It is pretty easy to get to EEG sensor data for analysis. Thank you.

Muse works great for me. It helps me relax and calm down. I love how it gives real-time feedback to track progress. As someone in Pharmacy B2B, I see the importance of mental health tools like this. It’s amazing how technology can support both physical and mental wellness.
