FirstIgnite is supporting the commercialization of Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory’s system to augment restorative sleep. This technology is a wearable device that records brain signals during sleep, which are then decoded using artificial intelligence to stimulate or elicit brain wave patterns that are beneficial to the user's health. This brain-computer interface enhances sleep monitoring, memory manipulation, and overall sleep quality.

This technology has a variety of applications, including home sleep disorder monitoring and treatment, hospital and sleep clinic monitoring improvements, enhancement of AI learning in sleep-related fields, and potential treatment for neurodegenerative disorders. The sleep disorder market was worth $22.5 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $73.5 billion by 2032.

Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory’s system to augment restorative sleep is ready for collaboration (licensing, partnerships, industry feedback, etc.). Is your company the right fit?
