The 'InstaDreamer' is a revolutionary piece of technology that will enable wearers to take control of their dreams and enjoy their choice of experience when resting at night.

The wearable works by being worn on the [wrist at all times](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wakeband) and using VibraSmart Conditioning Technology that uses the power of Pavlovian conditioning to train your brain to identify when it's dreaming. This is achieved through a series of [subtle vibrations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mave) that will take place during the day, while at night the bracelet will recognize when you are asleep to let your brain recognize as such. This could allow users of the 'InstaDreamer' wearable to enjoy [lucid and vivd dreams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dreamkey-journal) without having to spend extended periods training to do so.
