System and method of altering motions of a user to meet an objective
First Claim
1. A system for altering a user'"'"'s motions, the system comprising:
- a current source;
a feedback sensor device configured to detect motions associated with a user;
an objective information source, configured to provide information related to an objective of the user'"'"'s motion;
a control program configured to receive data representative of the detected motions and to receive the information, the control program having a control algorithm configured to generate control data based on the data representative of the detected motions and the information;
a controller configured to run the control program and output control signals based on the control data; and
electrical contacts configured to contact flesh of the user and deliver a current from a current source to a vestibular system of the user in response to the control signals.

Abstract
A method is generally described which includes detecting motions associated with a user, by a feedback sensor device. The method of also includes receiving information by a control program, the information being related to an objective of the user'"'"'s motion from an objective information source and receiving data representative of the detected motions by the control program. Further, the method includes generating control data based on the data representative of the detected motions and the information, by a control algorithm of the control program. Further still, a method includes running the control program by a controller. Yet further still, the method includes outputting control signals based on the control data and delivering current from a current source to the vestibular system of the user in response to the control signals.
