It uses the method of Pulsed Electromagnetic Stimulation (PEMS).

It is head-mounted U-shaped device which is placed at the backside of the head. In the middle of the device is a coil, which produces electromagnetic pulses. The device is made of plastic and is powered by smartphone through a user's headphone jack.
