It is about.

It is known that the brain emits different frequencies according to each state. If the external signal is continuously received from a certain frequency by sound or light, the brain wave also has the effect of synchronizing with the input frequency.

Using this principle is a mind machine, that is, an EEG induction device.

In general, brain waves between 15Hz and 30Hz are called beta waves and appear mainly in everyday life.

The EEG between 8Hz and 14Hz is called alpha wave, and it appears mainly in meditation or rest state and is generally known as an EEG.

The brain waves between 4Hz and 7Hz are called theta waves and are often observed in super-learning, slightly sleepy, and highly creative states.
