Purpose & Benefits

Provides users with a digital heart monitor designed to translate a user’s pulse rate into specific matching frequencies produced by a digital synthesizer.

Functions as a therapeutic tool to alleviate and reduce anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other conditions.

Includes a heart monitor capable of being strapped around the chest in order to monitor the heart without any discomfort.

Allows a software program to translate the user’s pulse/heart rate into random key activation, enabling users to create a synthesized musical arrangement in concordance with their heartbeat.

Features a light source, such as an LED light in various colors, configured to illuminate in time with the user’s heartbeat.

Problems Solved

Anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other conditions can lead to panic attacks and hysteria, an unfortunate common occurrence with mental illnesses. People may desire methods of dealing with panic attacks and/or hysteria without the use of medications. Struggling with panic attacks in public can be frustrating and embarrassing, leading people to not traveling outside their home due to fear of having an episode.

Detailed Description & Features

Heart Synth Monitor is a custom heart monitor paired with a software program capable of digitally synthesizing random notes in conjunction with a heartbeat. The monitor is securable to a user’s chest and can detect the wearer’s heartbeat. A microprocessor is utilized to receive the heartbeat signal and translate the signal into an audio signal played through a speaker located on the monitor.

The audio signal is processed into a synthesized musical arrangement in time with the user’s heartbeat. The audio signal can be rearranged by the user to produce a desired song. An LED light can be installed on the monitor, illuminating with the user’s heartbeat. The light can alternate in colors for additional entertainment and therapeutic effects. The system is intended to function as a therapeutic tool for those suffering from anxiety, depression, and other conditions.

Exact size, measurement, construction, and design specifications of the Heart Synth Monitor may vary upon further development and manufacturing.
