A computer-implemented method and system includes accessing neurophysiological and neurovascular data recorded during sleep. A device mounted on a subject's head during sleep can gather neurovascular data by measuring transcranial impedance. The device can be in the form of a single band, multiple bands, or a headcap that are worn on the subject's head. Electrodes located along an inner surface of the wearable device contact the subject's head and measure transcranial impedance. Transcranial impedance measurements are gathered from multiple locations on the subject's head and over multiple frequencies to obtain a more complete assessment of glymphatic flow.

Method and system for determining user input based on gesture

A waveguide apparatus includes a planar waveguide and at least one optical diffraction element (DOE) that provides a plurality of optical paths between an exterior and interior of the planar waveguide. A phase profile of the DOE may combine a linear diffraction grating with a circular lens, to shape a wave front and produce beams with desired focus. Waveguide apparati may be assembled to create multiple focal planes. The DOE may have a low diffraction efficiency, and planar waveguides may be transparent when viewed normally, allowing passage of light from an ambient environment (e.g., real world) useful in AR systems. Light may be returned for temporally sequentially passes through the planar waveguide. The DOE(s) may be fixed or may have dynamically adjustable characteristics. An optical coupler system may couple images to the waveguide apparatus from a projector, for instance a biaxially scanning cantilevered optical fiber tip.
