METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR NEURAL STIMULATION VIA VISUAL, AUDITORY AND PERIPHERAL NERVE STIMULATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240293680 titled 'METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR NEURAL STIMULATION VIA VISUAL, AUDITORY AND PERIPHERAL NERVE STIMULATIONS
The patent application describes systems and methods for treating cognitive dysfunction in a subject using visual and auditory neural stimulation.
- The system includes a light source and a speaker for providing visual and audio stimulation to the subject.
- A stimuli orchestration component selects either visual or audio stimulation to vary based on a policy during specific time intervals.
- The system aims to improve cognitive function in individuals in need of such treatment.
Potential Applications: - Treatment of cognitive dysfunction in patients with conditions such as Alzheimer's disease or traumatic brain injury. - Cognitive enhancement in healthy individuals looking to improve focus and memory.
Problems Solved: - Addressing cognitive dysfunction through non-invasive neural stimulation techniques. - Providing a personalized approach to cognitive therapy based on individual response to visual and auditory stimuli.
Benefits: - Non-pharmacological treatment option for cognitive dysfunction. - Customizable stimulation patterns for optimal cognitive improvement.
Commercial Applications: Title: Cognitive Enhancement Systems for Healthcare and Wellness Markets Description: This technology can be utilized in healthcare settings for cognitive rehabilitation programs and in wellness centers for cognitive enhancement services. The market implications include increased demand for non-invasive cognitive therapies.
Questions about Cognitive Dysfunction: 1. How does the system determine the optimal stimulation pattern for each individual? - The system uses feedback mechanisms to adjust the visual and auditory stimulation based on the subject's response, aiming to find the most effective pattern for cognitive improvement.
2. What are the long-term effects of using visual and auditory neural stimulation for treating cognitive dysfunction? - Research suggests that consistent use of neural stimulation techniques can lead to sustained cognitive benefits over time, but further studies are needed to fully understand the long-term effects.
Original Abstract Submitted
systems and methods of the present disclosure are directed to systems and methods for treating cognitive dysfunction in a subject in need thereof. the system can include a light source and a speaker. a visual neural stimulation system provides, via the light source, visual stimulation having a first value of a first parameter. an auditory neural stimulation system provides, via the speaker, audio stimulation having a second value of the second parameter. a stimuli orchestration component selects, for a first time interval, one of the visual stimulation or the audio stimulation to vary based on a policy, selects, for the first time interval, the other of the visual stimulation or the audio stimulation to keep constant based on the policy, and provides causes the one of the visual neural stimulation system or the auditory neural stimulation system to vary the one of the visual stimulation or the audio stimulation.
