Furthermore, the lighting system includes a structure for adapted for simulating clouds. Also, the system provides at least one room having the lighting system and providing plants and flowing water providing an illusion of the room being outdoors.

A rehabilitation assistant system for patients with cognitive impairments, including an audio stimulation unit, an acupoint stimulation unit, a phototherapeutic unit, an electronic stimulation unit, a display and optical frequency-flashed stimulation unit and a control unit. The audio stimulation unit broadcast a binaural beats with frequency following response, and the acupoint stimulation unit includes several acupoint agents to output physical stimulation to a user. The phototherapeutic unit includes two near-infrared light groups, and the electronic stimulation unit includes two electrical stimulation agents to output physical stimulation to the user. The display and optical frequency-flashed stimulation unit is switchable between a display mode and an optical frequency-flashed stimulation mode, and the control unit simultaneously controls the audio stimulation unit to broadcast the binaural beats with frequency following response so as to improve the rehabilitation efficiency in patients with cognitive impairment.

The present specification discloses a photobiomodulation therapy garment having a garment structure configured to be donned by a user atop a skin surface with one or more near-infrared light sources integrated with the garment structure. The near-infrared light source is configured to emit near-infrared light directed to one or more regions of interest of the skin at a wavelength between 600 nm to 1600 nm and at a predetermined dosimetry and duration. A controller with a processor and memory is in communication near-infrared light source to control the operational parameters of the near-infrared light source.

Disclosed is a lighting device for bright therapy and dark therapy, comprising: a light source part including a red light source, a green light source and a blue light source; a power supply part supplying a power to the light source part; and a controller adjusting, by controlling the power supply part, a bio illuminance to allow melatonin suppression value to exceed a first reference value during morning hours and to allow the melatonin suppression value to be less than a second reference value while maintaining a visual illuminance over a predetermined value during evening hours.

Disclosed herein a method for improving holistic wellness of humans, wherein said method comprises of synergizing the light and color via spectral wavelengths inducing Simultaneous Adjacent Chroma Stimulus (SACS), sound frequencies and projection art. The synergized light and color, sound frequencies and projection art provide a sensory experience that de-stresses and realigns the body, mind and soul. The corresponding system comprises of an enclosure having projection screens and multipurpose integrated apparatus, wherein said apparatus comprises of CONTENT projecting means, color and light producing means, sound producing means and geometric reflectors, wherein these are configured to project lights on to the projection screen shown through a story-telling format, wherein said light projecting means, light producing means, sound producing means, projecting screens and reflectors are relatively placed so as to optimally produce the desired response of de-stressing and breaking the vicious cycle of stress in humans.

A color temperature fusion lighting apparatus includes a first light source with a first color temperature, a second light source with a second color temperature, and a driver circuit. The driver circuit operates the lighting apparatus in two modes. In the first mode, the driver circuit operates the lighting apparatus in a first linear combination of the first light source and the second light source, resulting in a first operating color temperature for the lighting apparatus. In the second mode, the driver circuit operates the lighting apparatus in a second linear combination of the first light source and the second light source, resulting in a second operating color temperature. Moreover, the driver circuit is configured to alternate the operation of the lighting apparatus between the first mode and the second mode at a frequency F between 35 to 45 Hz, resulting in a blended color temperature of the first operating color temperature and the second operating color temperature for the lighting apparatus.

Methods and devices are disclosed for the non-invasive treatment of autoimmune diseases or disorders through the delivery of energy to target nervous tissue, particularly the vagus nerve.. A device for treating an autoimmune disease or disorder comprises one or more electrodes having a contact surface configured for contacting an anterior portion of an outer skin surface of a neck of a patient and an energy source coupled to the electrodes. The energy source is configured to generate one or more electrical impulses and to transmit the electrical impulses to the electrodes and transcutaneously through the anterior portion of the outer skin surface of the neck of the patient at or near a vagus nerve. The electrical impulses are sufficient to modulate the vagus nerve and to inhibit inflammation and treat the disorder.

Systems and methods of the present disclosure are directed to neural stimulation via non-invasive sensory stimulation. Non-invasive sensory stimulations can comprise audio stimulation, visual stimulation, mechanical stimulation, or a combination thereof. The combination and/or sequence of one or more of audio, visual, and mechanical brain stimulations can adjust, control or otherwise manage the frequency of the neural oscillations to provide beneficial effects to one or more cognitive states or cognitive functions of the brain, while mitigating or preventing adverse consequences on a cognitive state or cognitive function that stems from, for example, sleep deprivation, stress, hormonal imbalance, or other physical, physiological, or psychological conditions. In doing so, the present systems and methods can improve the cognitive potential of a person.

A method and apparatus for stimulating neural activity in the brain of a user of an apparatus with a display screen by causing at least one portion of the display screen to flicker in a controlled manner and utilizing the apparatus to measure an effect on a user exposed to the flicker for a time.

A system and method for treating various medical indications is disclosed. Specific dosages of light are delivered to a subject. The dosages may be defined according to various parameters, including light wavelength, pulse frequency, intensity, area within the subject's field of vision, duration, pulse waveform shape, or a combination thereof. The dosages of light may be administered while the subject's eyes are closed. Auditory stimulus may also be provided, in synchronization with the administered dosages of light.
