Patent ID: 10695529

Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus for changing a cognitive state of a user are disclosed. An example system includes a sensor to gather first electroencephalographic data from the user and an analyzer to determine a first cognitive state of the user based on the first electroencephalographic data and to determine a first binaural beat to present to the user based on the first cognitive state and a second cognitive state. The example system also includes an output to present the first binaural beat to the user. The sensor is to gather second electroencephalographic data from the user exposed to the first binaural beat. The analyzer is to determine a first effectiveness of the first binaural beat to place the user in the second cognitive state, and to determine a second binaural beat to present to the user based on the first cognitive state, the second cognitive state, and the second electroencephalographic data. The output is to present the second binaural beat to the user. In addition, the analyzer to determine a second effectiveness of the second binaural beat to place the user in the second cognitive state, to perform a comparison of the first effectiveness and the second effectiveness, and to select one of the first binaural beat or the second binaural beat for future presentation to the user to change the cognitive state of the user to the second cognitive state based on the comparison.
