Best device(s) to detect REM sleep ?

Hi,

i’m looking for precise and minimally invasive REM sleep monitors, does anybody know of today’s state of the art ?

The goal is to wake one up during REM sleep since you have +80% chance to remember a dream with top vividness at that time according to dream research.

I’m quite surprised this isn’t the first tool suggested to novice dreamers since basing dream recall on shaky motivation is unreliable as hell, at least if you unfortunately have a sane/average mind.

Hi, and welcome to LD4all!

I have had moderate success with motion detector apps for my phone. They detect REM sleep all right, but I usually interpret the noises wrong in my sleep. It usually wakes me up, but sometimes in a panic because I have thought the noises came from the fire alarm or intruders in the house.

Other devices are meant to be worn on the body. I feel those would interfere too much with falling asleep.
