Description

Develop and demonstrate a wearable, non-invasive, closed-loop system that enhances the restorative functions of sleep. The system must monitor neurophysiological signals in real-time to deliver non-pharmacological stimuli that measurably improve physiological recovery and sustain cognitive performance under conditions of operational stress, such as sleep restriction.
