(3) The Learning Channel, which by a special process, offers data learning and languages during sleep, and then drops you into normal sleep. (4) Nature Sounds - rain, surf, soft wind, etc., which you may like during Sleep. All sleep channels present a special wake-up signal at the appropriate time. Included too, is reinforcement in learning to go to sleep whenever you so desire. MASTER CONTROL ROOM (MCR) - a This is the heart of the technical operation of the Center. First, the MCR feeds audio and video programs to each CHEC unit, and can send as many as ten (10) different programs simultaneously. Thus, any individual can receive Special reinforcement exercises, elective and optional training on an one-to-one basis with the Trainer in MCR. Through intercom and direct Switching into the program, the Trainer can converse with the Participant in any CHEC unit privately, without disturbing or interrupting any one else. This important com- munication link permits a close personal approach during the exercise with each person, if and when needed. Equally important is the other activity in the MCR - the moni- toring of biological responses of each Participant. Through a custom scanning system, technicians in MCR can read EEG, EMR, GSR, body temperatures, and body voltage changes at the microvolt level. The MCR'is able to record any such responses on magnetic tape, with real time syncronous program and oral response patterns, thus pro- viding a permanent record of the progress of each Participante Of Special interest is the MCR Mind Mirror, a new instrument that dis- plays visually full-range hemispheric synchronization of electrical brain waves from high Beta to slow Delta, all in one pictorial repre- sentation, It also has provision for video distribution throughout the Center, including the CHEC units, as the need develops. To make full use of the new Center, the Institute is modifying all of the current Gateway Program exercises into a new format. How- ever, such changes will not negate the methods and training provided to date, but instead will augment and amplify them to new levels of proficiency. , Approved For Release 2003/09/10 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001700210029-1
