Opera Air, the browser that takes care of the digital well -being of users

Opera, a Norwegian Pioneer company in the development of web browser, today announced the launch of Opera Air, an innovative browser conceived around the concept of mindfulness. Opera Air does not just offer the features of a traditional, powerful and safe browser, but stands out for its attention to the well -being of users, integrating tools designed to improve the web navigation experience and promote a more peaceful mental state. Almost thirty years after its birth, Opera recognizes the increasingly central role of the browser in daily life. Today, in fact, the browser acts as an access door to a myriad of activity, from work to shopping, from entertainment to the use of web apps, consolidating itself as a real super application. With Opera Air, the company redefines the very concept of browser, transforming it from a simple utilitarian tool into an ally for the management of stress, the improvement of concentration and the maintenance of emotional lucidity during the day.

“The web offers infinite possibilities, but it can also be a source of chaos and information overload. We wanted to explore scientifically valid methods to help our users navigate in this environment in order to make them feel and work better,” said Mohamed Salah, Senior Director of Product of Opera. Opera Air offers a navigation experience based on Mindfulness, thanks to the integration of innovative features. The user can, for example, make use of the “take a break” and “boost” functions. The first guide is the user through breathing, meditation and body scan exercises, with variable duration sessions (from 3 to 15 minutes) and of different types. It is also possible to set reminder to encourage regular pauses dedicated to well -being.

The “boost” function, on the other hand, is based on the technology of binaural tones, a hearing technique that exploits the reproduction of slightly different frequencies in each ear to induce a third frequency perceived by the brain. This process is known for its ability to influence the activity of brain waves, favoring relaxation, concentration or a meditative state. Opera Air offers a variety of “boost”, including “Boost of creativity”, “energized concentration” and “deep relaxation”, as well as a specific function to facilitate the memory of dreams. Each “boost” allows you to customize the volume of the waves, natural sounds and background music, also offering the possibility to choose your favorite music. The duration of the “boost” is adjustable from 15 minutes to infinity.

The integration of Mindfulness in Air Opera is discreet and non -invasive. Users can, for example, continue to navigate or work on a document while listening to the “boost” “concentrated calm”, which uses Alpha tones combined with background music and natural sounds to encourage a state of calm concentration, ideal for study or work. To complete the user experience, a scandinavian minimalist design and a user interface with an elegant satin glass effect. Opera Air therefore represents a significant step forward in the panorama of web browsers, emphasizing the digital well -being of users and offering a more conscious and serene navigation experience.
