  • Patent number: 11617917
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatuses, and systems for non-linear breathing entrainment. As described herein, “breathing entrainment” refers to guiding a user's breath or breathing. According to an aspect, an initial breathing period and a final breathing period are selected. Based on the initial and final breathing periods, a non-linear breath rate per minute sequence is determined. A guiding stimulus is output and aligned with the non-linear breath rate per minute sequence. The guiding stimulus is non-linearly altered with the non-linear breath rate per minute sequence to align with the final breathing period over an interval of time. The non-linear alterations of the guiding stimulus vary based on an amount of time the guiding stimulus has been output.

  • Patent number: 11205408
    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for generating music, and, more particularly, to methods, systems, and apparatuses for generating music associated with a state contained within a communication, for a user interface for generating music associated with a state, for generated music to reflect movement between states, and for generating music to guide a user toward a desired state. In various embodiments, a computing system might analyze a communication of a user to determine at least one state contained within the communication. The communication may be a sensor communication, a biometric/health communication, a voice communication, a numerical communication, a textual communication, a picture/video communication, etc. Based on the determined at least one state, the computing system might generate music associated with the state or continuously control the generation of music to guide a user toward a desired state. A user interface for generating music may also be provided.
