A system to induce specific subconscious urges in a subjects mind comprising of a stereograph which is provided with at least two images visible substantially from two different viewing orientations in respect of said subject,
- wherein a first image of said at least two images is visible from a significantly reduced viewing orientation in respect of at least one of any other of said at least two images, in a manner such that said at least one of any other of said at least two images are consciously visible to a subject moving relative to said stereograph and said first image is non obvious to such subject.
A method of inducing behaviour in a subject comprising:
- presenting from a fixed location a first image substantially only visible in a first region presenting from said fixed location a second image substantially only visible in a second region wherein said first image of a kind being of a negative perception or connotation representing pain submodalities and said second image is of a kind presenting positive perception or connotations representing pleasure submodalities.
A system for inducing behaviour in a subject comprising:
- an image presenting means secured at a fixed location in respect of a, or a region of consumer product(s), adapted to present at least two images with at least one image only substantially visible from a first or a second region,
- a first image when said subject is in said first region of a kind being of a negative perception or connotation representing pain submodalities, and
- a second image when said subject is in said second region of a kind presenting positive perception or connotations representing pleasure submodalities,
- said second region and said first region orientated to urge the subject to move in a desired direction or towards a particular area.
A method of inducing motivating behaviour in shopping/purchasing environments comprising;
- providing an image presenting means visible to a person in the vicinity thereof wherein said image presenting means presents at least two images each only substantially visible by said person from a first or a second orientation of said person relative to said image presenting means, wherein said at least two images, from the persons perspective are changed as a result of:
- a) the movement of the person relative to a stationary image presenting means and/or
- b) movement of the image presenting means relative to a stationary said person, wherein
- a first image is of a kind being of a negative perception or connotation presenting pain submodalities and the second image is of a kind presenting positive perception or connotation representing pleasure submodalities.
A system for providing an image presenting means visible to a person in the vicinity thereof wherein said image presenting means presents at least two images each only substantially visible by said person from a first or a second orientation of said person relative to said image presenting means, wherein said at least two images, from the persons perspective are changed as a result of:
- a) the movement of the person relative to a stationary image presenting means and/or
- b) movement of the image presenting means relative to a stationary said person, wherein
- a first image is of a kind being of a negative perception or connotation presenting pain submodalities and the second image is of a kind presenting positive perception or connotation representing pleasure submodalities.
A system for suggesting movement to a person comprising;
- an image presenting means secured at a fixed location in respect of a, or a region of consumer product(s) said image presenting means being of a kind able to present two images each only substantially visible from a first or second region or direction, wherein intermediate of said first and second region or direction there is a mixed continuum of the said two images, wherein said image presenting means is in a fixed location in respect of said consumer product such that when a person is in said first region the image visible to said person is of a kind being of a negative perception or connotation representing pain submodalities, and when a person is in a said second region said image visible from said image presenting means is of a kind presenting positive perception or connotations representing pleasure submodalities, said second region being more proximate than said first region, to consumer goods which are desired to have their probability of sale enhanced.
A system for inducing behaviour or arousal in a subject comprising:
- a display adapted to project at least two images,
- a first image, and
- a second image wherein said display includes a refraction surface which results in the projection for viewing of said images in discrete directions,
- and wherein said second image is of a brightness, density, opacity, colour and/or contrast adapted to reduce said subjects conscious perception or awareness of said second image, and
- wherein the visibility of said second image is non obvious to the subject moving relative to said display, as a result of the range of directions from which said first image is viewable being significantly greater than for said second image.
A method of inducing or motivating behaviour in a person comprising;
- providing an image presenting means visible to a person in the vicinity thereof wherein said image presenting means presents at least two images each only substantially visible by said person from a first or a second orientation of said person relative to said image presenting means, wherein said at least two images, from the persons perspective are changed as a result of:
- a) the movement of the person relative to a stationary image presenting means and/or
- b) movement of the image presenting means relative to a stationary said person, wherein
- a first of said at least two images adapted to be substantially consciously perceived or noticed by a person during said relative movement and a second of said at least two images adapted to be substantially subconsciously perceived or noticed by a person during said relative movement, wherein said second image is adapted to intermittently or periodically appear proximate to, overtop of, or replace said first image during said relative movement.
A system comprising an image presenting means visible to a person in the vicinity thereof wherein said image presenting means presents at least two images each only substantially visible by said person from a first or a second orientation of said person relative to said image presenting means, wherein said at least two images, from the persons perspective are changed as a result of:
- a) the movement of the person relative to a stationary image presenting means and/or
- b) movement of the image presenting means relative to a stationary said person, wherein
- a first of said at least two images adapted to be substantially consciously perceived or noticed by a person during said relative movement and a second of said at least two images adapted to be substantially subconsciously perceived or noticed by a person during said relative movement, wherein said second image is adapted to intermittently or periodically appear proximate to, overtop of, or replace said first image during said relative movement.
