If you are interested in helping, you will need a laptop or netbook running Windows with a webcam and Lucid Scribe along with the Halovision plugin installed. If you are able to set it up on a nightstand and happen to face the webcam during a dream, the log will be of great value to me. No images are ever stored and the logs are human readable - they only contain a number (the amount of change between frames) every tenth of a second.
