Lucide Awake Official User Guide (v1.0)
Thank you for choosing Lucide Awake. Designed for Wear OS, this app utilizes advanced REM detection technology to assist in your lucid dreaming practice.
Core Workflow
- Pre-sleep Preparation: Open the watch app and verify your settings. Pro users: Use the Test Alert feature to ensure phone-watch connectivity and check volume/vibration levels. Press START to begin monitoring.
- Connectivity:
- Free: The watch operates independently; no phone connection is required.
- Pro: Maintain a Bluetooth connection between watch and phone to receive custom audio cues. (Airplane mode is okay as long as Bluetooth is active).
- Post-sleep: Press STOP upon waking. You can review your sleep stages and alert triggers directly on the watch to calibrate parameters.
Understanding the Algorithm
- REM Threshold: The sensitivity for entering REM. Lower for easier detection; higher to prevent false positives.
- REM Energy: The energy level required to trigger an alert. Lower this if you are sleep-deprived.
- REM Persistence: How long the detection stays active. Increase this for repeated cues within one dream.
- Exit Threshold: The standard for ending a REM detection. Higher values exit sooner for better accuracy.
3-Minute Quick Start Guide
1: 60 Seconds Before Bed
Check Stats on watch, do a Sync Test via Test Alert, press START.
2: Decoding REM Signals
When REM is detected, the watch (and Pro phone) will trigger your chosen haptic or audio cues. Recognize the cue in your dream to achieve lucidity.
3: Pro Feature - Master the Parameters
Export .lucid files to your phone Analyzer to replay and fine-tune your thresholds using Fast Sim mode.
FAQ: White Dots & Alerts
Q: What do the "White Dots" on the sleep graph represent?
A: They represent the REM Trigger Points. The system initiates the alert exactly 5 minutes after it confirms you have entered the REM stage. This delay ensures you are deep enough into the dream state to prevent premature awakening.
Battery Tip: Because Lucid Wake processes high-frequency sensor data in real-time, please make sure your device has at least 90% battery before starting the session.
