Brain stimulation system, method and apparatus based on artificial intelligence and storage medium

Provided are a brain stimulation system, method, apparatus and storage medium based on artificial intelligence. The system includes: a plurality of brain stimulation terminals and a cloud platform. The cloud platform is configured to, with artificial intelligence algorithm especially machine learning and deep learning, generate multi-dimensional psychological big data using physiological data and psychological state evaluation parameters gotten from the plurality of brain stimulation terminals and established models of algorithm for disease diagnosis. The brain stimulation terminal is configured to analyze the physiological data and psychological state evaluation parameters of a target subject, measure a mental state of the target subject, obtain brain stimulation parameters required for the target subject according to the mental state, and generate corresponding non-invasive brain stimulation for the target subject according to the brain stimulation parameters based on the multi-dimensional big data through the artificial intelligence algorithm.

Systems and methods for multi-modal and non-invasive stimulation of the nervous system

Systems and methods are provided to combine multiple stimulation modalities to significantly increase the effectiveness of non-invasive stimulation. Multiple sensor and stimulation devices and modalities can be combined into a single, compact unit that minimizes the need for additional sensors or stimulation devices. The system features several subunits, referred to as sensory and stimulation devices (SSD), that are integrated into a headphone setup. The system is controlled by a centralized controller that communicates with all of the SSDs and with an external computer system that delivers learning material synchronized with the delivery of stimulations and the collection of user responses based on physiological signals.

Virtual reality augmented massage therapy system and method
11547831 · 2023-01-10 ·

A virtual reality augmented massage therapy system and method is disclosed. Using this system taps into all of the key senses that people use to evaluate their surroundings, which in turn helps them to relax and feel comfortable. Simply stated, the more stimulus inputs a person's brain receives to determine its presence in an environment, the more immersed the person will become in the generated environment.

VIRTUAL REALITY ACTIVITIES FOR VARIOUS IMPAIRMENTS
20230038695 · 2023-02-09 ·

Systems and methods are provided for identifying a therapeutic VR activity or exercise for a subject/patient based on the subject's impairments, dynamically adjusting a VR activity for a patient, and identifying potential impairments based on a patient's performance in a VR activity. Patients may each have various physical, neurological, cognitive, and/or sensory impairments to be treated. Not all therapeutic activities may be appropriate for some patients and their impairments. A VR therapeutic activity platform may increase patient engagement and challenge patients at more appropriate times by better matching activities corresponding to a patient's impairments and dynamically adjusting each VR activity based on performance to offer a challenging and rewarding therapeutic experience.

Systems and methods for controlling position

Systems and methods for assessing compliance with position therapy. In an embodiment, position therapy is provided to a user while the user is wearing a position therapy device. The position therapy comprises, by the device, collecting positional data, determining positions of the user over a time period based on the positional data, and, when it is determined that the user is in a target position, providing feedback to the user to influence the user to change to a non-target position. In addition, the device stores a duration of use in its memory. The duration of use indicates a duration that the user has used the wearable position therapy device in each of one or more positions. An assessment of the user's compliance with the position therapy is then provided based, at least in part, on the duration of use.
