DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING BRAIN WAVES AND CELL ACTIVITY BY PHOTIC STIMULATION, AND DEVICE FOR IMPROVEMENT, PROPHYLAXIS, OR ENHANCEMENT OF BRAIN FUNCTION

摘要

To provide a brain wave and cell activity control device and method based on light stimulation in which light having a specific wavelength, such as violet light, is irradiated using continuous light or a specific blinking frequency, and a device for improvement, prevention, or increase in brain function. The above-described problem is solved by a brain wave and cell activity control device, based on light stimulation, that controls brain waves or cell activity by irradiating light having a specific wavelength onto a subject using continuous light or a specific blinking frequency. The brain wave and cell activity control device comprises a light source that irradiates the light having a specific wavelength using continuous light or a specific blinking frequency, and a control unit that controls an emission of light that induces specific brain waves, the brain waves of the subject having received the light being the same or substantially the same as, or different from a frequency of the light in an irradiation state. At this time, the light is preferably violet light, and the irradiation state of the light is preferably continuous light or a blinking frequency greater than 0 Hz and less than or equal to 150 Hz.
