Methods and apparatus provide physiological movement detection, such as gesture, breathing, cardiac and/or gross motion, such as with sound, radio frequency and/or infrared generation, by electronic devices such as vehicular processing devices. The electronic device in a vehicle may, for example, be any of an audio entertainment system, a vehicle navigation system, and a semi-autonomous or autonomous vehicle operations control system. One or more processors of the device, may detect physiological movement by controlling producing sensing signal(s) in a cabin of a vehicle housing the electronic device. The processor(s) control sensing, with a sensor, reflected signal(s) from the cabin. The processor(s) derive a physiological movement signal with the sensing signal and reflected signal and generate an output based on an evaluation of the derived physiological movement signal. The output may control operations or provide an input to any of the entertainment system, navigation system, and vehicle operations control system.

A system for delivering sensory stimulation comprises a sensor configured to measure brain activity information of a patient during a sleep session; a sensory stimulator configured to deliver sensory simulation to the patient during the sleep session; and a computer system. One or more physical processors are programmed with computer program instructions which, when executed cause the computer system to: determine a first stimulation profile, a second stimulation profile, or a combination stimulation profile thereof based on obtained sleep cycle information and/or obtained cognitive domain information; and provide input to the sensory stimulator based on the determined stimulation profile, the provided input causing the sensory stimulator to deliver the sensory simulations to the patient based on the determined stimulation profile during the detected slow wave sleep in the patient.
