ABSTRACT:
An improved multiple afferent sensory stimulation device is provided to receive a prerecorded tape program upon which the audio stimulation and control signals for the visual stimulation of a subject person's eyes and ears is provided, the invention consisting of a reproducing device to emit the audio and visual control signals on separate channels, the audio stimulation proceeding to earphones worn by the subject person, and the visual stimulation control signals processed electronically. This electronic processing includes amplifiers receiving the electronic signals for amplification, means to convert the AC signals to stretched out positive pulses, and means to utilize the stretched pulses to turn on and turn off the visual stimulation components of the invention. Visual stimulation components utilized may be electrofluorescent lights or incandescent bulbs placed directly in front of the subject person's eyes. Various different schemes of audio and visual sensory stimulation are suggested for achieving a mental and physical affect upon the subject person.
