HEAD-WORN THERAPY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240042232 titled 'HEAD-WORN THERAPY DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure relates to a head-worn apparatus that includes a frame, a light emitting system, a sound system, a haptic system, and a processor.

  • The frame is designed to be mounted on the head of a user.
  • The light emitting system is positioned within the frame and provides light to the user's eye.
  • The sound system delivers audio to the user.
  • The haptic system is positioned within the frame and provides haptic feedback to the user.
  • The processor controls the lighting system, audio system, and haptic system in a coordinated pattern of light, sound, and haptics.
  • This coordinated pattern of stimuli is designed to provide a mental-health therapeutic stimulus to the user, leading to an improvement in mental performance.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Mental health therapy: The coordinated pattern of light, sound, and haptics can be used to provide therapeutic stimuli for mental health conditions.
  • Cognitive enhancement: The apparatus can be used to improve mental performance and cognitive abilities through the coordinated pattern of stimuli.
  • Virtual reality experiences: The combination of light, sound, and haptics can enhance the immersion and realism of virtual reality experiences.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Limited mental health therapy options: The apparatus provides a new and potentially effective method for delivering therapeutic stimuli to improve mental health.
  • Lack of cognitive enhancement tools: The coordinated pattern of stimuli can help individuals enhance their cognitive abilities and mental performance.
  • Immersion limitations in virtual reality: The combination of light, sound, and haptics can create a more immersive and realistic virtual reality experience.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved mental performance: Users can experience an improvement in their mental performance through the therapeutic stimuli provided by the apparatus.
  • Versatile application: The apparatus can be used for various purposes, including mental health therapy, cognitive enhancement, and virtual reality experiences.
  • Personalized experience: The coordinated pattern of stimuli can be customized and tailored to individual users' needs and preferences.


Original Abstract Submitted

embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a head-worn apparatus, comprising: a frame adapted to be mounted to a head of a user; a light emitting system positioned within the frame to provide light to an eye of the user; a sound system adapted to provide audio to the user; a haptic system positioned within the frame to provide haptic feedback to the user; and a processor adapted to control the lighting system, audio system and haptic system in a coordinated pattern of light, sound and haptics that causes a mental-health therapeutic stimulus provided to the user, whereby the user experiences an improvement in mental performance based on the coordinated pattern.
