Abstract: Systems and methods for detection and/or intervention of stress episodes such as nightmares during sleep activity or flashbacks or anxiety attacks during waking or sleep activity. In some embodiments, sensors, such as gyroscopes, accelerometers, heart rate sensors, and/or other sensors, may be used for monitoring stress indicators indicative of a user's stress level. The sensed stress indicators may be used to calculate a stress level. If the stress level meets or exceeds a stress level threshold, haptic, audio, visual, and/or other feedback or alerts may be used to draw a user's attention and thus interrupt the stress episode.

Abstract: The present disclosure, in one embodiment, is a computer-implemented method for the detection of and intervention in traumatic nightmares. In one embodiment, a user wears a watch wirelessly connected to a phone. The watch may include an accelerometer, gyroscope, and heartrate monitor. The application may monitor these sensors and intervene with haptic feedback if the application detects a traumatic nightmare. In one embodiment, the application may include a monitoring module that collects data from the watch's accelerometer, gyroscope, and heartrate sensors. The application may then estimate and record stress levels based on these sensors. The application may also include an intervention module that responds to high stress levels with haptic feedback that increases in intensity of previous efforts to intervene were unsuccessful.
