REDUCING A MEASURE OF A COGNITIVE STATE OF AN INDIVIDUAL IN AN ENVIRONMENT TO BE LESS THAN A CAUSE-FOR-CONCERN THRESHOLD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240265642 titled 'REDUCING A MEASURE OF A COGNITIVE STATE OF AN INDIVIDUAL IN AN ENVIRONMENT TO BE LESS THAN A CAUSE-FOR-CONCERN THRESHOLD

The patent application describes a system designed to reduce a measure of an individual's cognitive state in an environment to below a cause-for-concern threshold. This system includes a processor and memory storing an analysis module and a controller module. The analysis module prompts the processor to identify when the cognitive state measure exceeds the threshold, while the controller module directs the processor to initiate a response to lower the measure below the threshold.

  • The system utilizes an analysis module to monitor the cognitive state of an individual in a given environment.
  • A controller module triggers responses to reduce the cognitive state measure if it surpasses a cause-for-concern threshold.
  • Responses may involve presenting augmented reality images or adjusting machine operations if the individual is operating a machine.

Potential Applications: - Healthcare: Monitoring and managing cognitive states in patients. - Workplace Safety: Enhancing safety by alerting individuals when their cognitive state is compromised. - Education: Providing feedback to students on their cognitive performance in learning environments.

Problems Solved: - Identifying and addressing cognitive states that may impact an individual's performance or safety. - Offering real-time interventions to mitigate potential risks associated with elevated cognitive states.

Benefits: - Improved safety and performance outcomes for individuals in various environments. - Enhanced monitoring and support for individuals with cognitive challenges. - Increased awareness and proactive management of cognitive states in real-time settings.

Commercial Applications: Title: Cognitive State Management System for Enhanced Performance and Safety This technology can be applied in industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, and education to optimize performance and safety by monitoring and managing cognitive states effectively.

Questions about Cognitive State Management System: 1. How does the system differentiate between normal cognitive fluctuations and concerning states? 2. What are the privacy implications of monitoring and analyzing an individual's cognitive state in real-time environments?

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on the latest advancements in cognitive state monitoring technologies and their applications in various industries.


Original Abstract Submitted

a system for reducing a measure of a cognitive state of an individual in an environment to be less than a cause-for-concern threshold can include a processor and a memory. the memory can store an analysis module and a controller module. the analysis module can cause the processor to obtain information that the measure of the cognitive state of the individual in the environment is greater than the cause-for-concern threshold. the controller module can cause the processor to cause a response intended to reduce the measure to be less than the cause-for-concern threshold. the response can include one or more of: (1) a presentation of an image to produce an augmented reality for the environment or (2) if the individual is operating a machine, then a change to an operation of: (a) a component of a stationary machine or (b) a movement control component of a machine configured to move.
