Abstract
A system and method for controlling a non-tactile device including a receiving device configured to receive signals corresponding to a user's brain waves or movements, the brain waves or movements corresponding to a series of directional intentions, the intentions defining at least one line pattern, a processor configured to process the at least one line pattern, each of said at least one line patterns associated with an action of the device, and output a control signal to the non-tactile device related to the action.
Claims14
A system for controlling operation of a device comprising:
- a non-invasive receiving device comprising:
- one or more sensors for recording actions performed by a user of the non-invasive receiving device;
- a processor communicatively coupled to the one or more sensors, wherein the processor is configured to:
- identify, via the one or more sensors, when the user has performed a primer, the primer comprising at least one of a relaxation of a body part, a head tilt, a brow raise, a smile, an eye blink, or a jaw clench detected by least one of determining a change in an inner ear pressure of the user of the non-invasive receiving device and detecting electrical activity due to muscle movement, and
- in response to identifying the primer, transmit sensor data captured by the one or more sensors to a second device, the second device comprising a second processor configured to:
- identify, from the sensor data, a line pattern performed by the user, wherein the line pattern comprises a plurality of segments forming at least one of a one-dimensional pattern, a two-dimensional pattern, or a three-dimensional pattern, and
- output a control signal based at least in apart on the identified line pattern.
A method for controlling operation of a third device comprising:
- receiving, from a non-invasive receiving device in communication with a second device, sensor data corresponding to actions performed by a user of the non-invasive receiving device,;
- identifying, at the non-invasive receiving device, when the user has performed a primer based on the sensor data, the primer comprising at least one of a relaxation of a body part, a head tilt, a brow raise, a smile, an eye blink, or a jaw clench detected by least one of determining a change in an inner ear pressure of the user of the non-invasive receiving device and detecting electrical activity due to muscle movement;
- in response to identifying the primer, transmitting the sensor data to the second device;
- identifying, at the second device, a line pattern performed by the user based on the sensor data, wherein the line pattern comprises a plurality of segments forming at least one of a one- dimensional pattern, a two-dimensional pattern, or a three-dimensional pattern;
- and
- outputting, from the second device, a control signal based at least in part on the identified line pattern.
