To illustrate the analysis and display capabilities a real life example from a recent course follows. These are the brain patterns of a 55 - year old business executive, very successful internationally. However, dyslexic since childhood. Very slow reading and low comprehension.
The displays below summarize 200 meters of linear EEG data.
To more easily understand the results, ask yourself which of the diagrams is the more esthetically pleasing? If you picked the center one you are now a qualified neuroscientist.
If you can see the "Before" is out of balance to the right, the "During" is balanced and the "After" is still balanced then you can really read EEGs like a professional.
These color displays represent the average brainwave frequencies and power for the entire duration of the test. In the case below 4 and 12 minute tests.
NOTE: The following displays can be enlarged by clicking on the individual images.
BLUE represents the left brain
and RED represents the right brainThe vertical scale in the center measures the brain frequency from 1 to 30 Hertz in 1 Hertz divisions.
The horizontal distance to the left or right of center measures the power of the brainwave.

Another way to view the results is by the second instead of as an average. The displays below are split in the middle with a white vertical line: the Left brain is on the left in each display and the Right brain on the right.
The vertical scale measures time in seconds. The horizontal scale measures the frequency and power of the brainwaves. As in the above example, one does not have to be a rocket scientist to see the difference in balance and alpha dominance.

Based on the results of the "Before" test above, a 12-minute optical-acoustical session is performed while observing the EEG at the same time. This program takes the brain through the 4 major frequencies for 2 minutes each:
7. Beta 14 Hz Decisions
8. Alpha 7 Hz. Learning
9. Theta 3 Hz Memory
10. Delta 1 Hz. Rest
And, will also test the brains ability to cooperate left-right during each 2-minute cycle. This result shows the brains relative balance in each of the beta, alpha and theta states.
The displays below show the computer screen monitoring the accuracy of the light and sound as it changes frequency and balancing sequences. The twin displays show both the input to the brain and the effect, all in real time. And, all re-playable later.

The above sequence requires approximately 20 minutes.
The result of balancing this mans brain and allowing alpha dominance was a 300% increase in reading speed and by his own definition "a staggering increase in comprehension".
Additional Views
NOTE: The following displays can be enlarged by clicking on the individual images.
Relative Percentage of Beta Alpha Theta
This display compares the left/right percentages as a total on the far right vertical axis and time by the second on the horizontal axis.
Balance between left and right in Beta Alpha Theta
This display shows the cooperation between the left and right brain, i.e. the balance, separated into Beta Alpha Theta. The yellow line shows the degree of balance. A flat line is perfect balance.

Linear 3 line display
Shows the Left brain on the top line and the Right brain on the bottom. Time is the horizontal axis and power the vertical axis. The yellow line in the center represents balance, when both brains are doing the same thing at the same time the yellow line will be flat. The display is available from 2 seconds per screen for maximum detail to 10 seconds per screen to observe longer term trends.

Frequency analysis
Shows the power at each frequency from 1 to 30 Hz. This is the clearest display of the overall left-right balance and the dominant frequencies both second by second and as an average for the duration of the test.
This example is the average activity during the 1023" of the Light/Sound session.
10 Second moving average
Shows the average frequency, power and left/right balance for the last 10 seconds. The bottom of the display shows the same information as a cumulative total of elapsed time.
This example is of a virtually instantaneous reconnection of the neurons damaged in a severe head injury to the left rear of the cranium. The symptoms were color blindness and an inability to control the left eye as well as the right which resulted in balance, dizziness and high pulse rate. The Light/Sound program was at 5 min of the 10 min program when the brain connected. The reconnection was permanent and the client reported he could now see color and move his eyes easily in balance. A side effect was his reading speed increased from 80 w/m to 340 w/m with increased comprehension and recall.
The zoom feature allowed the operator to see the event more clearly and to replay it for the client to show the exact instant of reconnection. It occurred just before 515". To see it clearly click on the image and enlarge to any size.
