Improving Focus and Concentration in the Classroom while Studying with Lighting Arrangement and Brainwave Stimulation

The combination of brain wave frequency can be used to describe the level of attention and comfort of a person to a certain activity including the level of focus and concentration while studying in a classroom which represented by the increase of alpha and beta frequency band. These brain wave patterns can be manipulated using stimulation that resonates with the brain waves. The stimulation can be combined with the arrangement of the lighting system in the classroom to improve the result. A research was conducted to evaluate the brain wave frequency patterns of a participant in a classroom which was stimulated using binaural audio stimulation and a lighting arrangement to increase the focus and concentration of the participant. The results show that the alpha and beta frequency band represented as a relative wavelet energy are increased and distributed throughout the whole brain while the theta relative wavelet energy frequency band shows a trend of decrease.
