PainWave is an innovative interactive gaming trial conducted by researchers from multiple universities in Australia and the University of Washington. This neurofeedback system allows users to change their brainwave patterns and reduce chronic pain without medication. Using a 3D printed headset, it captures brainwave signals and translates them into visual feedback on a tablet. The initial trial demonstrated promising results, with three out of four participants reporting significant pain reduction, revealing that training the brain could alter pain perception effectively.
The innovative game, PainWave, allows users to harness their brainwaves to achieve drug-free pain relief by learning to control their brain activity through an interactive experience.
PainWave entails a 3D printed headset that collects brainwave signals while users engage with an interactive game, leading to visual feedback that aids in pain management.
