His later inventions included the electronic battle game now known as Laser Tag, and the electronic dog collar system now known as Radio Fence. After graduate school at MIT, Lee passed the US patent bar exam, became a licensed patent practitioner, and has since written and prosecuted his own patents on his inventions.<\/p>\n<p>In line with his interest in helping people with his inventions, during graduate school, Lee became interested in healthcare innovation and did his master\u2019s thesis designing heart monitors for hospital Intensive Care Units. While teaching at MIT and during his subsequent ventures, Lee has done over 2000 hours of volunteering as a healthcare advocate, including serving two years on the consumer council of Healthcare for All, a non-profit involved in drafting healthcare legislation.<\/p>\n<p>Frustrated by financial conflicts of interest that sometimes prevent cost-saving innovations from becoming available through standard healthcare channels, after years of attempting to market the biofeedback headband through dentists, Lee formed Holistic Technologies in 2007 to make the biofeedback headband available as an option for people to eliminate TMJ-related pain and migraines. Lee has since personally assisted over 2000 people in using the biofeedback headband to eliminate significant pain and suffering from their lives.<\/p>\n<h3>SleepGuard Product Photos<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-378\" src=\"http:\/\/mysleepguard.com\/solution\/wp-content\/uploads\/1.jpg\" alt=\"1\" width=\"260\" height=\"174\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0This photo shows how the SleepGuard biofeedback headband is worn during sleep.
