Therapeutic outputs comprise synchronized haptic stimulation, thermal modulation, and breathing-synchronized visual cues configured to guide calming respiratory patterns. The invention further incorporates pediatric-specific thermal safety mechanisms including redundant thermal monitoring, software cutoff, hardware emergency shutdown, and session-duration limitation. Secure BLE communication with encrypted data logging enables caregiver and clinical oversight. The invention provides improved therapeutic compliance, enhanced comfort, and effective pediatric anxiolysis through synchronized multi-modal biofeedback delivered in a child-friendly plush form factor.
