  • Publication number: 20230377543
    Abstract: A method and a system for generating music for an electronic device are provided. The system is configured to generate a first portion of generative music by combining a plurality of audio stems based on a determined first current state vector; measure, with the biosensor, the EEG data while the first portion of generative music is played by the speakers to the user; in response to determining that the current state should be modified to achieve a desired goal state of the user, determine a second set of music parameters for achieving the desired level of focus of the user; generate by the processor and play at the speaker a second portion of generative music characterized by the second set of music parameters to achieve the desired goal state of the user.

  • Patent number: 11540759
    Abstract: There are described headphones comprising earcups to be placed about ears of a user, with a headband linking the earcups and to be extending above a head of the user. A flexible band distinct from the headband is secured below the headband for contact with the head of the user. Removable headband sensors are embedded in the flexible band and have a portion thereof protruding downwardly from the flexible band to reach the scalp. The flexible band has a flexibility which makes the flexible band deform under the weight of the earcups to conform with the head of the user to ensure high quality contact between the headband electrodes and the scalp. There are further provided earcup electrodes on the earcups for contact with a region on or behind an ear of the user. Signals from the electrodes can be used for different purposes such as concentration monitoring and feedback.
