Abstract
The present disclosure provides devices, systems and methods for enhancing the cognitive activity/ability of a user by providing a watch-only stimulation session with visual features configured to induce stimulation to different brain areas, thereby stimulating a predefined path within the brain of the user.
Claims24
1-29. (canceled)
A brain stimulation device for enhancing a cognitive function of a user, the brain stimulation device comprising:
- a monitor configured to display visual imagery to the user;
- a non-transitory memory configured to store thereon multiple visual features, at least some of the multiple visual features are stimulating visual features having stimuli characteristics for inducing stimulation to predetermined regions of the brain;
- and
- a processing circuitry configured to:
- define a stimulation path by selecting at least two brain regions for stimulation, wherein inducing stimulation to the stimulation path is associated with affecting an enhancement to the cognitive function of the user;
- create a stimulation session by selecting and sequencing visual features from the stimulating visual features, wherein the selected visual features have stimuli characteristics configured to induce stimulation to the at least two selected brain regions, such that the stimulation session is configured to induce stimulation to the stimulation path;
- and
- provide the stimulation session to the monitor.
A method for inducing brain stimulation to enhance a cognitive function of a user, the method comprising:
- defining a stimulation path by selecting at least two brain regions for stimulation, wherein inducing stimulation to the stimulation path is associated with affecting an enhancement to the cognitive function of the user;
- creating a stimulation session by selecting and sequencing visual features from stimulating visual features having stimuli characteristics configured to induce stimulation to the at least two selected brain regions, such that the stimulation session induces stimulation to the stimulation path;
- and
- displaying the stimulation session on a monitor;
- wherein the stimulation session does not require an active engagement of the user.
A brain stimulation system for enhancing a cognitive function of a user, the system comprising:
- a server including:
- a server communication controller;
- a non-transitory memory configured to store thereon multiple visual features, at least some of the multiple visual features are stimulating visual features having stimuli characteristics for inducing stimulation to predetermined regions of the brain;
- and
- a processing circuitry configured to:
- define a stimulation path by selecting at least two brain regions for stimulation, wherein inducing stimulation to the stimulation path is associated with affecting an enhancement to the cognitive function of the user;
- create a stimulation session by selecting and sequencing visual features from the stimulating visual features, wherein the selected visual features have stimuli characteristics configured to induce stimulation to the at least two selected brain regions, such that the stimulation session is configured to induce stimulation to the stimulation path;
- and
- provide the stimulation session to the server communication controller;
- and
- a user stimulation-device including:
- a user communication controller configured to be in communication with the server communication controller and to receive therefrom a stimulation session;
- and
- a monitor configured to display the stimulation session to the user, for inducing stimulation to the stimulation path.
