I mean like, detects your brainwaves and shakes you awake if it detects you are awake but unable to move.

Like I can still slightly move my fingers during sleep paralysis, is there a way to use my tiny bit of control to activate a button, which then triggers a device that shakes me awake? 😆

🤔

Idk I keep getting sleep paralysis every night, feels so weird.

    First of all, get a sleep study done. Sleep paralysis can be a sign of underlying sleeping disorders such as apnea, which is incredibly unhealthy if untreated.

    If you study checks out clean and you’re still looking for a way to manipulate something with your fingers then the only thing I can think of that you’d be able to DIY is some kind of Arduino-type button thingamajig that you could strap to a finger that sends a wireless signal to some kind of alarm in the room.

    A D1 mini is small, cheap, and easy to configure. If you have no idea what I’m talking about you’ll need to do some homework and learn some stuff, but as far as projects go it’s pretty simple to set up. Hardest part would likely be rigging something that you could use that doesn’t get triggered inadvertently. Cockpit style toggle switch with a cover, maybe? Lol.
