Method and System for Mitigating Motion Sickness in Passengers - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240174241 titled 'Method and System for Mitigating Motion Sickness in Passengers

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method of mitigating motion sickness in a passenger by predicting reactions and the possibility of motion sickness based on various information and providing information on mitigation methods.

  • Learning a motion sickness prediction model based on state information of a vehicle or the passenger, reaction information of the passenger, and motion sickness-related information.
  • Predicting reactions of the passenger to a current state of the vehicle or the passenger and the possibility of motion sickness using the learned motion sickness prediction model.
  • Providing information on motion sickness mitigation methods to the passenger or controlling the vehicle based on the predicted reactions of the passenger and possibility of motion sickness.

Potential Applications

The technology could be applied in autonomous vehicles, virtual reality experiences, and other transportation systems to enhance passenger comfort and reduce motion sickness.

Problems Solved

This technology addresses the issue of motion sickness in passengers, which can lead to discomfort, nausea, and other negative effects during travel.

Benefits

The method can improve the overall passenger experience, increase passenger satisfaction, and potentially reduce the incidence of motion sickness in various transportation settings.

Potential Commercial Applications

The technology could be utilized by automotive companies, ride-sharing services, and entertainment industries to offer a more comfortable and enjoyable experience for passengers.

Possible Prior Art

One potential prior art could be the use of motion sickness prediction models in virtual reality systems to reduce simulator sickness in users.

Unanswered Questions

How does the technology adapt to individual passenger preferences and sensitivities?

The patent application does not specify how the system can personalize mitigation methods based on individual passenger characteristics and preferences.

What data privacy measures are in place to protect passenger information used in the prediction model?

The patent application does not address the potential privacy concerns related to collecting and analyzing sensitive passenger data for motion sickness prediction.


Original Abstract Submitted

a method of mitigating motion sickness in a passenger including learning a motion sickness prediction model based on state information of a vehicle or the passenger, reaction information of the passenger, and motion sickness-related information, predicting reactions of the passenger to a current state of the vehicle or the passenger and possibility of motion sickness using the learned motion sickness prediction model, and providing information on the motion sickness mitigation methods to the passenger or controlling the vehicle based on the predicted reactions of the passenger and possibility of motion sickness. the motion sickness-related information includes one or more of a determination result of whether motion sickness occurs to the passenger, motion sickness state information, and motion sickness reaction information.
