==NEUROPERCEPTUAL FEEDBACK IN EXTENDED REALITY ENVIRONMENTS APPARATUSES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240316310 titled 'NEUROPERCEPTUAL FEEDBACK IN EXTENDED REALITY ENVIRONMENTS APPARATUSES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS

Abstract: An extended reality (XR) neural perceptual feedback (NPF) system includes an XR system and a neural interface. The XR system presents a virtual environment to the user and monitors the user's interactions with the virtual environment. Based on the interaction with the virtual environment, the neural interface applies stimulation to the nervous system of the user. The stimulation may cause a percept in the user, allowing them to have perceptual feedback from interacting with the virtual environment.

Key Features and Innovation:
* XR system presents a virtual environment to the user
* Neural interface applies stimulation to the user's nervous system based on interactions
* Stimulation causes a percept in the user, providing perceptual feedback
* Neural interface can also be used to direct interactions within the virtual environment

Potential Applications:
- Virtual reality gaming
- Medical rehabilitation
- Training simulations
- Therapeutic applications

Problems Solved:
- Enhancing user experience in virtual environments
- Providing real-time feedback during interactions
- Improving neural interface technology

Benefits:
- Enhanced immersion in virtual environments
- Improved user engagement and feedback
- Potential therapeutic benefits for certain applications

Commercial Applications:
Title: "Enhancing User Experience in Virtual Environments with Neural Perceptual Feedback Technology"
This technology can be utilized in various industries such as gaming, healthcare, education, and training to enhance user experiences and provide valuable feedback.

Prior Art:
Prior research in neural interfaces and virtual reality technologies can provide insights into the development of this XR NPF system.

Frequently Updated Research:
Stay updated on advancements in neural interface technology, virtual reality systems, and applications of XR in different industries.

Questions about XR:
1. How does the neural interface determine the type of stimulation to apply to the user?
2. What are the potential long-term effects of using this XR NPF system for extended periods?


==Original Abstract Submitted==

an extended reality (xr) neural perceptual feedback (npf) system includes an xr system and a neural interface. the xr system presents a virtual environment to the user and monitors the user's interactions with the virtual environment. based on the interaction with the virtual environment, the neural interface applies stimulation to the nervous system of the user. for example, a stimulation pattern may be selected based on the type of interaction, what type of virtual object the interaction was with, or combinations thereof. the stimulation may cause a percept in the user, allowing them to have perceptual feedback from interacting with the virtual environment. the neural interface may also be used to direct interactions within the virtual environment, for example using neural signal decoding to determine how to update the virtual environment.
