  • System and Method for Providing Biofeedback Controls to Various Media Based Upon the Remote Monitoring of Life Signs
    Publication number: 20220071556
    Abstract: A system and method for generating biofeedback using feedback signals created by at least one media device. A subject person is monitored to obtain biometric data. The biometric data is used to generate a biometric waveform. The biometric waveform is used to generate control signals. The control signals are used to regulate audio signals, lighting, audiovisual imagery and/or auxiliary devices so that these feedbacks are altered to represent some waveform characteristic embodied by the biometric waveform. The subject person will hear and/or see the feedback and will better be able to control their body and mind.

  • SCENARIO BASED MONITORING AND CONTROL OF AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES
    Publication number: 20230347931
    Abstract: A system evaluates modifications to components of an autonomous vehicle (AV) stack. The system receives driving recommendations traffic scenarios based on user annotations of video frames showing each traffic scenario. For each traffic scenario, the system predicts driving recommendations based on the AV stack. The system determines a measure of quality of driving recommendation by comparing predicted driving recommendations based on the AV stack with the driving recommendations received for the traffic scenario. The measure of quality of driving recommendation is used for evaluating components of the AV stack. The system determines a driving recommendation for an AV corresponding to ranges of SOMAI (state of mind) score and sends signals to controls of the autonomous vehicle to navigate the autonomous vehicle according to the driving recommendation. The system identifies additional training data for training machine learning model based on the measure of driving quality.

  • Method for treating a patient
    Patent number: 9095266
    Abstract: A signal processing method and system combines multi-scale decomposition, such as wavelet, pre-processing together with a compression technique, such as an auto-associative artificial neural network, operating in the multi-scale decomposition domain for signal denoising and extraction. All compressions are performed in the decomposed domain. A reverse decomposition such as an inverse discrete wavelet transform is performed on the combined outputs from all the compression modules to recover a clean signal back in the time domain. A low-cost, non-drug, non-invasive, on-demand therapy braincap system and method are pharmaceutically non-intrusive to the body for the purpose of disease diagnosis, treatment therapy, and direct mind control of external devices and systems. It is based on recognizing abnormal brainwave signatures and intervenes at the earliest moment, using magnetic and/or electric stimulations to reset the brainwaves back to normality.

The vehicular wireless signal controller includes a remote, a control head, a remote receiver and a control unit. The driver in pursuit or high speed chase situation because of emergent duty or timing wants to operate the emergency signaling system, he or she may needs to look for the control head. As a result, the driver can't mind his or her road's condition and it may cause accidents easily. A remote can be mounted on the top of turning axis of the steering wheel's shaft where is very close to the driver's hands holding with to improve the operability of the signaling system and reduce hazardous situation while in use with emergency vehicles.
