In response to the many requests I have received for information about
my new device that can be used for developing stereoscopic and VR
vision I am posting the following information:

About four years ago I created a device called the MC2.  This device
uses computer generated light and sound patterns fed through the eyes
and ears to stimulate alpha and theta brain waves(day dreaming).  It
has been copied in a number of forms and is found in a number of mail
order catalogues as a relaxation device.  It works well.

In playing with new ways to stimulate brain states, I developed two
devices that do not need glasses to deliver light patterns. One sits
on a desk(about 8 inches in size) and the other is held in the hand. 
By looking into the devices your brain is guided into the day dreaming
state.  Differing pattern of pulsing light are delivered to each eye
independently.  Your brain mixing these signals is what induces the
alpha brain states and creates a wide range of visual responses.

The devices will be marketed as brain games where you explore your
brain by working your way through several levels.  Level one of the
exploration game make the user very aware of how they use vision (left
eye, right eye or both) and can be used as a trainer for stereoscopic
vision required for VR.  The light you see in the device will change
color depending on how you are using your brain(left side, right side
or both).  The upper levels of the game involve pattern recognition,
imagination and visualization.

I have patent pending and am closing deals with manufacturing and
distribution and the productes will be publicly available by summer
for about $100.  Pre-production units are available upon request.
