As millions of college students head off to school, they’re forced to trade carefree summer routines for rigorous winter class schedules, and this trade-off eventually leads to exhaustion. A recent study published in the Journal of Adolescent Health found that only 30% of college students get enough sleep.
Part of this trend is due to the stress of school life, triggering procrastination and late night cramming sessions. While students try to pack their class schedules and party time into one extreme day, their sleep patterns become disturbed. This cycle depletes physical energy and mental alertness, but have no fear — there’s an app for that.
Launched this week by GSC Products, BluWave uses therapeutic blue light to invigorate the mind and body by fooling the biological clock to help over-tired college students beat the “Study Fatigue Blues”. The BluWave iPhone app uses light emitting diode (LED) technology to deliver an adjustable panel of blue light through the screens of iPhones and iPods. BluWave also features an audio mode with relaxing natural sounds including ocean, rain, nature, waterfalls and wind.
BluWave is presently available for the iPhone and iPod Touch for $1.99 at the iTunes App Store. Promotional downloads are available for qualified media and reviewers upon request.
