The Halo
The Halo is the most advanced consumer neurotechnology wearable ever created. It is designed to induce lucid dreams along with other conscious experiences by utilizing emerging technologies such as transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) and generative transformer architectures, along with established technologies like electroencephalogram (EEG) and functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS).
Neuroscience
The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is a highly influential region in the human brain located at the front of the frontal lobes. It's involved in a wide array of complex neural functions and is key to human congition. Functions of the prefrontal cortex include attention, concentration, working memory, emotion regulation, and self-awareness.
Prophetic focuses on the modulation of the PFC because its unique capacities make it responsible for a large number of conscious experiences, including lucidity, which is the activation of the PFC during rapid eye movement sleep.
Neuromodulation
Transcranial Focused Ultrasound (tFUS) is an emerging non-invasive neuromodulation technology that utilizes high-frequency sound waves generated from piezoelectric crystalittes that are focused to precisely target areas within the brain. These sound waves can pass through the skull and other tissues without causing damage.
Prophetic designs and engineers state-of-the-art multielement transducer arrays with fibonacci spirals to maximize steering range and holography generation.
Neuroimaging
The human prefrontal cortex has approximately 16 billion neurons. The Halo utilizes dual neuroimaging engines: EEG and fNIRS. EEG senses electrical oscillations generated from neurons. fNIRS senses the presence of oxygen atoms in blood, an indication of neural activity.
Morpheus Transformer Architecture
Morpheus is a class of ultrasonic generative neural transformer models designed by Prophetic. We call it Morpheus because, in Greek mythology, Morpheus is the god of dreams. He is often depicted as a messenger of the gods, delivering messages through dreams, particularly those related to human emotions and experiences.
Unlike Large Language Models, Morpheus-1 is not prompted with words and sentences but rather brain states. And instead of generating words, Morpheus-1 generates ultrasonic holograms for neurostimulation to bring one to a lucid state. Morpheus-1 is a 103 million parameter transformer model trained on 8 GPUs for 2 days. We engineered this from scratch and filed a provisional utility patent application.
