  • Patent number: 10896375
    Abstract: In one embodiment of the present invention, environment information corresponding to a user is received. A target environment is simulated in augmented reality based on the environment information. Physiological information corresponding to the user is received. A cognitive state of the user is determined based on the physiological information. In response to determining that the cognitive state of the user is not a target cognitive state, the target environment is modified in augmented reality to achieve the target cognitive state.

  • Patent number: 10868799
    Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for securing data transmission. After determining that a message is being created to be sent from a sender to a receiver, the cognitive states of the sender and receiver are measured. A set of feature vectors for the sender and receiver is generated based on the cognitive states of the sender and receiver. The feature vectors are inputted into a long short term memory network, which selects an appropriate level of encryption (encryption strength, encryption algorithm, and mode of transportation in sending the message) to encapsulate the message utilizing the generated set of feature vectors. The message is then encapsulated using the selected level of encryption. In this manner, by using an appropriate level of encryption, the message is less likely to be accessible by unauthorized users thereby reducing the likelihood of unauthorized access or loss of valuable data.

  • Patent number: 10748518
    Abstract: In an approach to adaptive sound masking, one or more computer processors analyze a surrounding of one or more users and stores in a database. The one or more computer processors receive a request from the one or more users for adaptive sound masking. The one or more computer processors analyzes a surrounding environment associated with the one or more users and storing a first information associated with the surrounding environment in a database. The one or more computer processors generate a cognitive sound mask base on the first information. The one or more computer processors produce a sound cone based on the cognitive sound mask and directing the sound cone at a distracting sound. The one or more computer processors adapt the sound cone based on changes to the surrounding environment.

  • Patent number: 10743805
    Abstract: In an approach to generating preflex stimulation, one or more computer processors monitor one or more sensing devices for data associated with a user activity. Based, at least in part, on the data associated with the user activity, the one or more computer processors predict a user reaction associated with the user activity. The one or more computer processors transmit a preflex stimulus to at least one muscle of the user, wherein the at least one muscle is associated with the user reaction. The one or more computer processors determine a reaction time of the at least one muscle to the preflex stimulus.

  • Patent number: 10739848
    Abstract: A determination can be made as to whether a user of an augmented reality device is within a threshold distance from a configurable physical apparatus including at least one display configured to emit light. Responsive to determining that the user is within the threshold distance from the configurable physical apparatus, a communication link can be established between the augmented reality device and a controller of the configurable physical apparatus. The controller can be initiated to change the configurable physical apparatus from a first configuration to a second configuration. In the first configuration the at least one display can visually depict textures causing the physical apparatus to look like a first type of ceiling or a first type of floor. In the second configuration the at least one display can visually depict textures causing the physical apparatus to look like a second type of ceiling or a second type of floor.

  • Patent number: 10620695
    Abstract: Adapting a virtual space to the cognitive state of a user as measured through an immersive environment. The probability or confidence that a particular cognitive state is classified correctly is output by a probability density classifier. The predictors are from active features and inactive features acquired through the immersive environment to reverse engineer the cognitive state of the user in the real world. The overall goal of the immersive environment is initialized by the user with a default of nurturing the cognitive state of the user.
