Abstract

Binaural beats are a technology of stereo sound designed to put the brain into the same activity state as when someone are meditating using traditional methods. It is necessary to use a stereo headphone to create a binaural effect in the brain. The pattern is the following- the oscillation discrepancy between the two tones is the frequency at which the binaural beat will pulse. A 250Hz tone in the left ear and a 256Hz tone in the right ear will produce a binaural beating frequency of 6Hz, (the middle of the brain`s theta patterns range), only perceptible into the listener’s brain. This is important to mention because of the human ear’s range of hearing does not go much below 20Hz, direct listening to such frequencies usually will not register in the listener’s perception, especially within older people. Binaural arousal help create a synchronicity between the brain’s hemispheres, better cognitive function and higher mental performance.
