Amusing MindPlace Proteus USB Light & Sound Meditation Mind Machine


Product Description

The Proteus Advanced Light plus Sound Stimulation System is known throughout the world to be one of the classic mind machines. Many thousands of happy users experience its benefits on a daily basis. Since its release the platform has expanded in capability with several operating system upgrades plus feature additions.

The Proteus was the first BiColor mind machine which featured two color channels of LEDs in light glasses activated plus mixed simultaneously. This creates a light show covering a wide range of up to 4,096 perceived colors. The Proteus ships with our Ruby/Emerald Ganzframes which have 4 red plus 4 green LEDs generating an extremely bright plus engaging display.

The Proteus is an ideal platform for AudioStrobe decoding allowing you to utilize many commercial music CDs or software applications. AudioStrobe technology uses an inaudible signal embedded in music tracks to trigger the lights in perfect synchronization with the audio.

The Proteus system is a price vs. performance breakthrough. With the Proteus we deliver a large well rounded set of features including manual control of the most important parameters from the front of the unit. You can explore plus customize your experience in realtime as the session plays. This feature expands the possibilities of the system infinitely.

The Proteus is unique among our products as it can be connected with our ThoughtStream Biofeedback System to use biofeedback readings to control programs. For instance, when you are relaxed the lights can tend toward the green end of the spectrum plus when you are stressed more toward red. Sound plus entrainment frequencies can also be aligned with biofeedback readings.

For the easy-to-use realtime control, biofeedback with the ThoughtStream (sold separately), plus the best AudioStrobe decoders available, plus the comfortable plus bright Ruby/Emerald Ganzframes, the Proteus is beyond doubt one of the top mind machines ever created regardless of price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Oh my God.... Amusing!, May 5, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
I am a former teaching fellow in Physiology plus I also have additional graduate education in both biochemistry plus psychology. Some of my studies included neurobiology plus I have a lot of meditation experience. As part of my work, I teach meditation workshops plus also use biofeedback personally plus for education purposes. While I know the basics of neurofeedback, it isn't a specialty area. So, using this product was a brand new experience for me. This isn't biofeedback as such, but it could be coupled with biofeedback for various purposes.

What this equipment does in generate patterns of light that are synchronized with sound. There are also various CDs available that couple the Proteus unit to music. I tried the system in both ways, but got the most out of coupling it with music.

The glasses provided with the Proteues are meant to be used while your eyes are closed. They generate very bright light that shines through your eyelids. In EEG work, a light... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars No problems here., September 22, 2008
All I can say is good stuff. Also, I'm glad I didn't spend more money for larger memory capacity because I only use 2 of the preprogrammed plus 1 that I made plus transfered from the PC. I got exactly what I asked for plus it functions as expected. I've been geekin' daily plus my sessions are very important to me. I've always had trouble meditating but the mind machine, for some reason, keeps me glued for the time of the session. It's hard to say if it's "changed my life" but I love doing it nonetheless. The manufacturer has a web site with forums plus updates plus sample sessions created by users. This was a good catch.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good machine, lots of features for a fair price, August 10, 2006

This review is from: MindPlace Proteus USB Light & Sound Meditation Mind Machine (Health plus Beauty)
I recently upgraded my light plus sound machine from Sirius (an older model from the same manufacturer) to Proteus. I like this one much better.

It sounds superb (it has binaural beats). The lights are better (it supports red plus green lights (for energizing plus relaxing, respectively) - most machines on the market are mono-color.

If you choose the proper program the sounds plus lights will take you to an altered state of consciousness (through training plus persistence).

I also use it to energize right after waking up to make me very sleepy before going to bed.

Some of the features I was telling: you can connect a CES device to it, so you will get electrical mini-pulses sent to your brain to enhance effect. I have a stereo OASIS CES unit.

Moreover, if you get a Thoughtstream unit from the same vendor - that is a biofeedback device - you could have programs (i.e. light plus sound) adjusting dynamically depending on how you relax. BTW,... Read more
