1. A method for communication with a device, comprising:
- monitoring brain activity of a subject via an EEG monitoring system coupled to the subject;
detecting a predefined state of brain activity of the subject;
comparing a first time with a predefined window of time;
determining the first time is not within the predefined window of time;
wherein the device includes at least one household device, and based on the detecting the predefined state and the determining the first time is not within the predefined window of time, delaying wireless transmission of instructions to the at least one household device from the EEG monitoring system to adjust a setting of the at least one household device;
comparing a second time with the predefined window of time;
determining the second time is within the predefined window of time; and
based on the detecting the predefined state and the determining the second time is within the predefined window of time, wirelessly transmitting the instructions to the at least one household device from the EEG monitoring system to adjust the setting of the at least one household device.

Abstract
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.
