[Noisebridge-discuss] 4 more [PAID TESTERS] for Mitch's sleep mask project‏

[Mitch Altman]

We actually are working on a "wake-up" sequence.  The one I have works OK, but I'm now focusing on getting a good "go to sleep" sequence.  Next is getting the "go back to sleep" sequence really good (for when one wakes up in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep).
 
Mitch.

Is there a mask that will get me out of the bed in the morning?

I want one, gimme.

Payment is an unnecessary bonus. Also, do you have anything cool I can
demo at Hackers? We could use a device for the biohacking session.
