Publication number: 20240148296Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for implementing cognitive behavioral therapy to help a subject to manage a psychiatric or mental condition of the subject are provided. Interactive digital reality (DR) activities are provided through an interactive DR scene, each configured for a subject to practice a specific reframing technique. In some embodiments, a method also includes providing one or more additional psychotherapeutic or psychoeducational techniques. Through the practice of satisfying conditions associated with each interactive DR activity, the systems, methods, and devices help a subject to manage a psychiatric or mental condition of the subject, such as by getting better at recognizing and/or challenging an anxious thought as the thought occurs, and/or by reframing the anxious thought into more a different thought using the interactive DR scene.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2023Publication date: May 9, 2024Applicants: BehaVR, LLC, Sumitomo Pharma Co., Ltd.Inventors: Roward Agulto, Jillian Ahrens, Eleanor Anderson, Todd Grinnell, Robert Hayes, Shannon Hooper, Katie Howard, Marc Recasens, Bayley Taple, Risa Weisberg, Sarah Zadd, Gazeleh Vakili

Patent number: 11961142Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method for pooling and transferring digital assets may include detecting a transaction event for a blockchain ledger. The blockchain ledger may include transaction records for a pool of digital assets and accounts collectively owning the digital assets. Each account may own a proportional portion of the digital assets corresponding to an account asset balance. The method may also include calculating an exchange rate based on a cash balance of the pool, a liabilities balance of the pool, and an ownership distribution value. The ownership distribution value may be based on a distribution of the account asset balances. The method may also include updating the cash balance based on the exchange rate and the transaction event, and adding a transaction record for the transaction event to the plurality of transaction records. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2019Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: COMPOUND LABS, INC.Inventors: Robert Leshner, Geoffrey Hayes, Jared Flatow, Torrey Atcitty, Coburn Berry
