Luciding

San Francisco, CA, United States

Overview

Luciding is a joint Ukrainian‑Russian startup developing a wearable device intended to let users enter and control their dreams. Founder and lead developer Nikita Antu conceived the idea after reading Carlos Castaneda and says the device can help users control and "tune" dreams for the next night. The team spent about eight months developing the gadget and invested roughly $10,000 into development. The product will be sold as a $290 device and also offered via a $40/month subscription. The company has taken preorders and plans to deliver devices to preordering users imminently while preparing a Kickstarter campaign targeted for before the end of November. Incubator support and additional financing are expected to accelerate production and fulfillment.
