PGO waves, or Ponto-Geniculo-Occipital waves, are brain activity patterns that are observed during sleep, particularly in the REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep phase. They are primarily recorded through electroencephalography (EEG) and are characterized by bursts of rhythmic activity in the brain. These waves are thought to play a role in the process of visual processing and the generation of dreams.
