  • Apparatus and method for photonic physiological and neurological stimulation
    Patent number: 10471276
    Abstract: An apparatus and method utilizes photonics, particularly lasers, and biometric feedback for physiological and neurological stimulation. While many areas of the body are candidates, such laser stimulation is particularly directed to the outer ear. Lasers positioned over the ear stimulate targets on the outer ear for pain and stress management and regulation of the autonomic nervous system to affect symptoms and clinical conditions. Laser positioning, wavelength, aiming, focus, power, power density, timing, and sequencing are managed and modified dynamically in real time to effect a personalized and effective treatment protocol.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 7, 2016
    Date of Patent: November 12, 2019
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: William Beckner, John A. Ives, Mark Bachman, Guann-Pyng Li
