  • Patent number: 10891313
    Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems are disclosed for producing cognitive and/or sensory profiles. In one aspect, a method to provide a cognitive or sensory assessment of a subject includes selecting a profile category from among a cognitive performance profile, a sensory performance profile, and a cognitive and sensory performance profile, presenting a sequence of stimuli to a subject, the sequence of stimuli based on the selected profile category, acquiring physiological signals of the subject before, during, and after the presenting the sequence of stimuli to produce physiological data, and processing the physiological data to generate an information set including one or more quantitative values associated with the selected profile category.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 24, 2018
    Date of Patent: January 12, 2021
    Assignees: THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, THE SALK INSTITUTE FOR BIOLOGICAL STUDIES

  • Patent number: 10258291
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are disclosed for evaluating vulnerability, disease progression, and treatments in neuropathologies. In one aspect, a method to provide an assessment related to a neurological or neuropsychiatric disorder includes selecting a profile category indicative of one or more aspects of cognitive or sensory functions associated with a neurological or neuropsychiatric disorder, presenting a sequence of stimuli to a subject, in which the sequence of stimuli is based on the selected profile category, acquiring physiological signals of the subject before, during, and after the presenting of the sequence of stimuli to produce physiological data, and processing the physiological data to generate an information set including one or more quantitative values associated with the selected profile category.

  • Patent number: 10182736
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are disclosed for acquiring and analyzing physiological signals. In one aspect, a physiological sensor device includes a substrate formed of an electrically insulative material and structured to allow physical contact of the device with the frontal region of the head of a user, a recording electrode configured at a first location on the substrate to acquire an electrophysiological signal of the user, a reference electrode configured at a second location on the substrate to acquire a reference signal to the electrophysiological signal, and a ground electrode configured at a third location at least partially between the first and the second locations on the substrate, in which the first location is posterior to the second and third locations, and in which the device is operable when electrically coupled to an electrical circuit to detect physiological signals of the user.

  • Publication number: 20180217666
    Abstract: A biometric control device is described. The biometric control device may include a data acquisition unit configured to detect a biometric signal from a user in an environment. biometric control device may also include a data processing unit configured to process the biometric signal detected from the user. The data processing unit may be further configured to compute a biometric control signal configured to modulate a set of actions and/or objects in the environment.
