What it does
The INSPEC is like having your own sleep lab technician that watches your eyes with a night-vision smart camera and alerts you when you're dreaming. No electrodes, no wearables, no wear and tear. It triggers LED light cues or audio prompts during REM sleep to help you become lucid in your dreams. Configure detection thresholds, set progressive audio cues, view hypnograms with video clips of rapid eye movement episodes, and use the Smart Alarm to wake at the optimal point in your sleep cycle.
lucidcode INSPEC - a lucid dreaming device that detects eye movements during REM sleep with computer vision and triggers audio cues to promote lucidity.

A bedside camera detects REM sleep and agrees with a clinical EEGJul 2026 · lucidcode.com · ▲10I build a device called the INSPEC that detects REM sleep from a bedside infrared camera instead of electrodes. It watches the face under IR light and measures frame-to-frame pixel variance in the eye region. During quiet sleep the face is stable. During REM the eye movements under the lids produce measurable variance, which the device aggregates over time before it flags a REM period. Toss detection, whole-frame motion rejection, and face tracking filter out body movement and out-of-frame periods. After I gave a talk on contactless REM detection, a sleep lab loaned me a clinical-grade EEG…

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
