Abstract

Techniques are provided for synchronizing a plurality of client wearable elements based on an event. Systems may include a social control module that produces synchronization signal(s) based on an event, and a social communication module that transmits the synchronization signal(s) to the one or more social clients. Systems may also include a social receiver module that receives synchronization signal(s) and sensory stimulation modules that actuate based on stimulation signal(s). A stimulation schedule module generates the stimulation signal(s) based at least in part on the at least one synchronization signal. Wearable elements retain at least a portion of the modules described. Various other aspects are directed toward feedback collection and use, sequencing signals, relationship management, client identities, and other related aspects.

Claims

1. A system, comprising:

a social receiver module that receives a synchronization signal based at least in part on a group event;

one or more sensory stimulation modules that actuate based on a stimulation signal;

a stimulation schedule module that generates the stimulation signal based at least in part on the synchronization signal; and

one or more wearable elements that retain at least a portion of the social receiver module, the one or more sensory stimulation modules, and/or the stimulation schedule module.

2. The system of claim 1 further comprising a feedback tracking module that tracks feedback information related to at least the one or more wearable elements.

3. The system of claim 2, wherein a subsequent stimulation signal is provided to the stimulation schedule module based at least in part on the feedback information.

4. The system of claim 2, further comprising a social transmitter that broadcasts a supplemental signal based at least in part on the feedback information.

5. The system of claim 1, further comprising a location module that determines at least one of an absolute location and/or a relative location of the one or more wearable elements.

6. The system of claim 1, further comprising one or more attachment modules configured to variably connect at least one of the one or more sensory stimulation modules to the one or more wearable elements.

7. The system of claim 6, further comprising an electrical interface of the attachment modules capable of providing more than 0.5 amp current to at least one of the one or more sensory stimulation modules.

8. The system of claim 1, further comprising a delay module that delays presenting at least a portion of the group event to permit time coordination of the synchronization signal.

9. The system of claim 1, wherein at least one of the one or more sensory stimulation modules is flexible and/or distributed discontinuously across the one or more wearable elements.

10. The system of claim 1, further comprising an identity module that associates at least one client identifier with at least one of the one or more wearable elements.

11. The system of claim 10, wherein the social receiver module selectively receives the synchronization signal from a plurality of available feeds based on the at least one client identifier.

12. The system of claim 1, further comprising a relationship module that provides a subsequent stimulation signal to the stimulation schedule module based at least in part on a relationship interaction.

13. The system of claim 12, wherein the relationship interaction is defined by at least one relationship classification.

14. A system, comprising:

a social control module that produces one or more synchronization signals based on a group event, the one or more synchronization signals include stimulation information that actuates sensory stimulus modules; and

a social communication module that transmits the one or more synchronization signals to one or more social clients associated with the sensory stimulus modules.

15. The system of claim 14, further comprising a social feedback receiver that receives feedback information associated with the clients.

16. The system of claim 15, wherein the feedback information includes one or more client identifiers associated with the one or more social clients, and wherein the one or more synchronization signals are based at least in part on the one or more client identifiers.

17. The system of claim 15, further comprising a pairing module that manages connections of at least one of the social communications module and the social feedback receiver.

18. A system, comprising:

a control section for administering synchronization of a plurality of wearable social devices;

an execution section for completing synchronized actions with the plurality of wearable social devices;

an identity module that associates at least one client identifier with one or more social clients;

a social control module of the control section that produces at least one synchronization signal based on a group event and the at least one client identifier;

a social communication module of the control section that transmits the at least one synchronization signal to the one or more social clients associated with the sensory stimulus modules;

a social receiver module of the execution section that receives the at least one synchronization signal;

one or more sensory stimulation modules of the execution section that actuate based on at least one stimulation signal;

a stimulation schedule module that generates the at least one stimulation signal based at least in part on the at least one synchronization signal; and

one or more wearable elements of the execution section that retain at least a portion of the social receiver module, the one or more sensory stimulation modules, and/or the stimulation schedule module, wherein the one or more wearable elements are associated with the one or more social clients.

19. The system of claim 18, further comprising:

a feedback tracking module of the execution section that records feedback data associated with the execution section; and

a feedback receiving module of the control section that receives the feedback data,

wherein the at least one synchronization signal is modified based at least in part on the feedback data.

20. The system of claim 18, further comprising a relationship module that detects a relationship interaction, wherein the at least one stimulation signal is based at least on part on the relationship interaction.
