Memory Air
is a device designed to support memory and brain function using scent. It runs
at night and releases a series of natural smells while the user sleeps. The
goal is to activate brain areas linked to memory by using the sense of smell,
which has direct pathways to those regions.
The device does not treat medical conditions.
Instead, it offers a science-based wellness approach that connects smell
with memory.
Smell signals travel directly to the parts of
the brain that handle memory and emotion. Studies have shown that exposing
people to different scents, especially during sleep, can improve memory
performance.
Memory Air uses this idea by delivering a wide
range of scents in a specific sequence. Changing the scent often helps keep the
brain active and avoids getting used to a single smell. The device's design is based on research by neuroscience teams.
Memory Air sits near the bed and starts working
once it’s turned on. It releases short scent pulses during the night, usually
starting an hour after sleep begins. The device works quietly and does not need
to be worn.
Each month, users replace the scent cartridge
with a new one containing a blend of scents. The system is set to release
around 80 scent exposures per night. It pauses between each one to let the
brain reset, which helps keep the stimulation effective.
Memory Air is made for adults who want to
support memory and brain activity through non-drug methods. It may be helpful
for people who:
The device is easy to set up and requires no daily adjustments. It works passively while the user sleeps.
Some studies show that people exposed to scent
stimulation during sleep perform better on memory tests. Brain scans have also
shown changes in activity in memory-related areas.
These findings suggest that stimulating the
sense of smell may help memory, especially in older adults. However, results
can vary, and this method should be seen as part of a broader wellness routine.
