The present invention relates to methods and devices to consolidate memory and/or cognitive functions by monitoring brain rhythms and delivering a stimulus at an appropriate stage of sleep cycle.

A method for communicating with devices may include monitoring brain activity of a subject via an EEG monitoring system coupled to the subject. The method also may include detecting a predefined state of brain activity of the subject. Further, based on the detecting the predefined state, the method may include wirelessly transmitting instructions from the EEG monitoring system to the at least one household device to adjust a setting of the at least one household device.

The present disclosure pertains to a system configured to manage a sleep session of a subject. In some embodiments, the sleep session is a nap and the system is configured to increase the restorative value of the nap by enhancing and/or maintaining sleep slow waves (and/or slow wave activity estimated using an EEG) in the subject during the nap with sensory stimuli. The present system is configured to enhance restorative sleep during a nap by delivering sensory stimulation to the subject during lighter NREM sleep stages (e.g., during a portion of stage N2 sleep) while still avoiding arousals. In some embodiments, the system is configured to facilitate a powernap by delivering the sensory stimulation to the subject in such a way so as to prevent transition into deep sleep (e.g., stage N3 sleep).

A respiratory assistance device including a respiratory interface device configured to be worn by a user and deliver a gas, a gas temperature measurement unit configured to measure a gas temperature that is a temperature of the gas, a warming unit configured to warm the gas, and a temperature change unit configured to change the gas temperature by controlling the warming unit. The respiratory assistance device can administer comfortable respiratory assistance even during sleep.

This sleep assistance apparatus includes a stimulation generation unit that generates stimulation, a user being capable of receiving the stimulation; a detection unit that detects biological information of the user; and a control unit that decides optimal stimulation on the basis of the detected biological information, and causes the stimulation generation unit to generate the optimal stimulation.

A multisensory environment apparatus for providing stress reduction to a user is disclosed. The apparatus includes a support frame that defines a recess. Auditory signal generators, somatosensory signal modules, olfactive signal modules, visual signal modules, and vestibular signal modules are positioned to deliver the associated to a user positioned in the recess. One or more of these signals are delivered to the user by the multisensory environment apparatus during a session. The delivery of the auditory and vibrotactile signals to the user work to meet the user's vital functions where they are, entrain them, and guide them to a more relaxed state, helping to reduce stress. The combination of the signals and the apparatus provide short term relief of acute stress, and long term benefits by breaking the cycle of chronic stress.

Provided are systems, methods, and devices for implementation of custom sleep parameters. Methods include receiving, via a user interface, a plurality of input parameters associated with a sleep profile of a user, the plurality of input parameters representing at least one sleep profile target, generating, using one or more processors of a processing device, a plurality of sleep parameters based, at least in part, on the received plurality of input parameters, the plurality of sleep parameters representing one or more changes to one or more biomarkers of the user, and generating, using one or more processors of the processing device, a plurality of stimulation parameters based, at least in part, on the plurality of sleep parameters, the plurality of stimulation parameters representing stimuli configured to implement the identified changes for each of the identified biomarkers of the user's sleep profile.
