Unveiled to the public for the very first time is a prototype version of the Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response Unit (A.S.M.R.U.), or what I like to call the A.I. Relaxation Companion. It is currently running the Relaxation Sleep Countdown program. There are still some minor glitches that need to be worked out with the program and unit itself, but for the most part I'm happy with the design and operation. Also I'm still not sure if I want to add a more natural flesh tone to the unit's white polymer latex skin to make it look more human. My goal, once I get enough investor backing, is to be able to mass market this to the consumer so that everyone can have their very own Relaxation Companion. Imagine lying in bed or relaxing in your favorite chair or recliner as the ASMRU whispers your favorite book, folds towels, paints, taps, crinkles plastic or even performs an eye exam! Let me know what types of Relaxation programs you'd like to see performed if you had your own ASMRU and I will do my best to code them and run another test video using this prototype.

To listen while using other apps, switch the player to Picture-in-Picture (PiP) during playback — it keeps playing in a small floating window (the screen stays on).
To listen with the screen fully off, in-browser playback stops by YouTube's design. Open the video in the YouTube app to keep listening where background playback is supported (e.g. with YouTube Premium).
