Arousal events can be determined for a user associated with a wearable device, such as a user wearing a wearable computing device including one or more sensors. The one or more sensors may obtain EDA information that may determine a sympathetic nervous system response of the user, which may be responsive to an arousal event or an activation. Detection of events that increase the EDA response may provide information to the user regarding arousal events and provide recommendations to the user to address the arousal events to decrease their response.

A wrist or finger mounted wearable device and method for determining a state or activity level of the autonomic nervous system, such as the respiratory rate or activity of the vagus nerve. The wearable device having at least a pair of electrocardiograms (ECG) measurement electrode pads configured to perform hand-to-hand ECG measurements. The device or method including monitoring of the pair of ECG measurement pads at a first time period to arrive at a first reading of hand-to-hand ECG, and at a second time period to arrive at a second reading of hand-to-hand ECG. The device or method analyzing the first and second readings of ECG to arrive at various indications of the state of a user.

Systems and methods for controlling permissions for an individual. The techniques can include presenting neurophysiological stimuli to the individual, measuring neurophysiological response by the individual to the neurophysiological stimuli, determining whether the individual is exhibiting cognitive impairment based on whether the measured neurophysiological response differs from a reference response by a threshold, and controlling a permission according to criteria and the determination as to whether the individual is exhibiting cognitive impairment, wherein the permission allows the individual to at least one of access a resource or perform an action. The systems and methods described herein address COVID-19 related issues by screening for detection of findings compatible with COVID-19, providing a mechanism to both verify the identity of the individual and to link SARS-CoV-2 laboratory test results to that individual, and controlling permission to access resources or perform actions to prevent transmission of COVID-19.

An example system includes an analyzer to identify first activity in first neuro-response data, the first activity generated in response to exposure of a subject to a first stimulus prior to exposure to an advertisement or entertainment; identify second activity in second neuro-response data, the second activity generated in response to re-exposure of the subject to the first stimulus after to exposure to the advertisement or entertainment; calculate a differential event related potential measurement; and calculate a differential event related power spectral perturbation. The example system includes a resonance estimator to determine a subject resonance measurement to the advertisement or the entertainment based on the differential event related potential measurement and adjust at least one of the subject resonance measurement or the differential event related potential measurement based on the differential event related power spectral perturbation to generate an adjusted subject resonance measurement.

An information processing apparatus includes a first determination unit, a second determination unit, and a presentation unit. The first determination unit determines, based on biometric information of a speaker and a non-speaker, creativities of the speaker and the non-speaker, according to different indices. The second determination unit determines, according to the creativity of the speaker and the creativity of the non-speaker, a creativity of a group including the speaker and the non-speaker. The presentation unit presents the creativity of the group.

A method of imaging nervous tissue, comprising acquiring functional imaging modality data from a functional imaging modality which images an intrabody volume of a patient having a body part, the patient having been injected with an imaging agent having a nervous tissue uptake by an autonomic nervous system (ANS); and locating the nervous tissue in the intrabody volume based on the functional imaging modality data.

An information processing apparatus according to the present technology includes a processing section that executes a process including a correction process of specifying noise included in perspiration data acquired by a perspiration sensor on a basis of sensor data acquired by a different type of sensor than the perspiration sensor, and removing the noise from the perspiration data. According to such a technology, noise estimated according to other sensor data can be removed from the perspiration data, making it possible to maintain high accuracy in a later process of estimating activity in the autonomic nerves.

An example system to identify an advertisement to include in source material to increase an effectiveness of the advertisement includes an analyzer to determine one or more priming characteristics for a plurality of locations of a source material based on neuro-response data collected from a first subject exposed to the source material and a selector to identify an attribute of the advertisement, identify at least one of a temporal attribute or a spatial attribute for the plurality of locations, perform a comparison of the attribute of the advertisement to the at least one of the temporal attribute or the spatial attribute for the plurality of locations, select a first location of the plurality of locations for insertion of the advertisement based on the comparison and the priming characteristics, and transform the source material to include the advertisement at the first location.
