Publication number: 20160007915Abstract: Adaptive performance trainer for guiding a user toward a psychophysiological state. In an embodiment, psychophysiological signal data is received from one or more sensors, and a current psychophysiological state of a user is determined based on the psychophysiological signal data. The current psychophysiological state is compared to one or more goal states, and one or more control signals are generated based on a difference between the current psychophysiological state and the one or more goal states. The control signal(s) cause one or more feedback devices to generate feedback to guide the user toward the one or more goal states. The feedback may comprise an indication to the user of the current psychophysiological state at a pace that replicates the user's heartbeat.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 18, 2015Publication date: January 14, 2016Inventors: Christine Berka, Adrienne Behneman, Djordje Popovic, Gene Davis, Giby Raphael
