This project focuses on patients with awake bruxism, aiming to monitor and treat this condition from a design perspective. Since stress is a cause of awake bruxism symptoms in patients, MOG is a wearable olfactory concept device based on aromatherapy.
This concept device is intended for daily use by patients with awake bruxism. It is wireless, lightweight, and features an ear-hook design for ease of wear. This device aims to help patients improve their mood from a psychological perspective and gradually reduce the frequency of bruxism by timely releasing scents based on the monitored state of the user's jaw muscles.

SYSTEM DIAGRAM
STRUCTUREThis device monitors the tension frequency of the jaw muscles using electrical muscle sensors and triggers an ultrasonic nebuliser to release scents based on biometric data (e.g., releasing the scent of lavender or orange when the jaw muscles contract continuously for 2 seconds).
