Research Highlight
MIT study on 40 Hz gamma stimulation
Emerging research suggests that gamma-frequency (around 40 Hz) light and sound stimulation
may support aspects of brain health. We’re encouraged by the growing body of work—from MIT and other labs—and
want to make exploration accessible to everyone.
LucidWave makes it easy to practice 40 Hz light & sound—with background audio for
sound-only sessions, optional gentle screen flicker, and simple timers that fit your day.
Created in honor of a loved one, with a single purpose: make caring for the mind more accessible.
100% of profits from subscriptions are donated to brain research and care.

The Science Behind LucidWave
Curious about how 40 Hz light and sound could support brain health?
Learn what researchers are exploring and how LucidWave turns that into a daily habit.
I’m a sales guy with zero development experience. After discovering the 40 Hz research in May 2025,
I set out to build a simple, low-cost, no-ads app that could help millions—powered end-to-end by AI.
Many research protocols use about 60 minutes daily of 40 Hz stimulation. Ease in and
build a routine that fits your life:
Sound-only in the background: Start with 40 Hz audio while you do other tasks. LucidWave supports background audio so you can keep using your phone.
Light + sound at night: Before bedtime, with lights off, place your phone face-up. The indirect flicker can be present without staring directly at the screen.
LucidWave is for wellness and self-care. It isn’t a medical device and doesn’t diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease. If you have a history of photosensitive epilepsy or similar conditions, consult a clinician before using flicker.
For My Mom, and for Millions More
My mom was one of the sharpest people I’ve ever known—an engineer from Tsinghua University who built a successful global manufacturing company.
Toward the end of her life, she didn’t recognize her own family. That loss changed me.
I’m not an engineer and had no app-building experience, but I had a mission:
honor my mom and make a gentle, accessible tool inspired by promising 40 Hz research.
100% of profits from subscriptions go directly to brain research and supporting brain care.
