  • Publication number: 20230255567
    Abstract: A system, and related methods, for estimating a level of interoception in a subject, the system including a heartbeat sensor for sensing the subject's heartbeat as manifested locally to the sensor, a user interface for receiving input from the subject and a processor configured to: receive information representing the timing of sensed heartbeats; form, in dependence on the received information, a periodic output having the same frequency as the sensed heartbeats; present the periodic output to the subject; receive input of a first type from the user interface; and in dependence on the input of a first type, adjust the phase with which the periodic output is to presented to the subject.

  • Publication number: 20210334566
    Abstract: A method of detecting a biometric event in an input signal comprises: performing principal component analysis PCA on samples of a plurality of model signals to generate a transformation matrix having more informative components and less informative components, each model signal comprising a known signal which includes the biometric event to be detected; reducing a dimensionality of the transformation matrix by discarding one or more of the more informative components; transforming a plurality of samples of the input signal using the reduced dimensionality transformation matrix; determining a probability that the biometric event is present in the plurality of samples of the input signal, by calculating a predefined probability function for the transformed samples; and determining that the input signal includes the biometric event if the probability is higher than a threshold.

  • Publication number: 20200012682
    Abstract: A system and method for the automatic, procedural generation of musical content in relation to biometric data. The systems and methods use a user's device, such as a cell phone to capture image data of a body part, and derive a biometric signal from the image data. The biometric signal includes biometric parameters, which are used by a music generation engine to generate music. The music generation can also be based on user-specific data and quality data related to the biometric detection process.
