SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TAKING RESPONSIVE ACTION TO HUMAN BIOSIGNALS
First Claim
1. A method of taking action in response to biosignals detected from a user, comprising:
- establishing a training signal containing biosignal data corresponding to a mental state of the user while the user concentrates on a perceptual cue;
associating a user specified action to be carried out by an electronic device with the training signal;
monitoring biosignal data from the user; and
comparing the monitored biosignal data to the training signal and, if a match between the monitored biosignal data and the training signal is determined, commanding the electronic device to carry out the user specified action.

Abstract
To enhance interaction and use with electronic devices, the present disclosure describes several improved systems and methods of taking responsive action to a detected human mental state. A training signal containing biosignal data corresponding to a mental state of the user while the user concentrates on a perceptual cue may be established. In some embodiments, user input or other information may be stored in association with the training signal. Biosignal data from the user may be monitored at an appropriate time and, if a match between the monitored biosignal data and the training signal is determined, a predetermined response is taken by an electronic device.

18. A system for taking action in response to biosignals detected from a user, comprising:
-
a biosignal detection headset configured to detect biosignals from a user that are indicative of a mental state of the user and output corresponding biosignal data; and an electronic device that includes an interface to receive the biosignal data from the biosignal detection headset and a control circuit configured to; establish a training signal containing biosignal data corresponding to a mental state of the user while the user concentrates on a perceptual cue; associate a user specified action to be carried out by the electronic device with the training signal; monitor biosignal data from the user; and compare the monitored biosignal data to the training signal and, if a match between the monitored biosignal data and the training signal is determined, command the electronic device to carry out the user specified action. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
