1. A statistical data gathering system,comprising;
- a base device;
a plurality of cubes, the cubes responding to three dimensional movement and neighboring with other cubes to transmit data regarding its three dimensional location and neighboring with other cubes to the base station;
wherein the base devise is configured to selectively transmit images and sound to the cubes such that a player has to perform a predefined action in response;
the base device further configured to periodically capture said data from the cubes and record the data into a table, the data including data pertinent to a cognitive disorder;
the base device further configured to determine statistics from said table, the statistic including sums, averages, standard deviation to produce response metrics that are indicative of a cognitive disorder;
a web-based server configured to store player data, including the player'"'"'s name and medical history; and
wherein the base device is configured to determine a unique number associated with a particular set of cubes and to use this number to communicate with the web-based server;
wherein the base device is further configured to instruct the player to play a game with the cubes which involves the player reacting a specific manner to a plurality of difference cube configurations;
or by following the lead of a lead cube manipulated by a person other than the player being diagnosed;
wherein the specific configurations include predetermined disturbance configurations, the reaction to such disturbances comprising an indicia of a cognitive disorder; and
wherein the symptoms of inattention are determined by comparing reaction time, fewer commissions, and less accessory movements, with control;
wherein, based on summary statistics, hyperactivity and impulsivity symptoms are determined by comparing more commissions, when the spatial component, as determined by measuring spatial coordinates, is introduced in the game level, and decreased overall reaction time is compared to control;
wherein, based on summary statistics, ASD symptoms are determined by comparing over control more omissions, specifically when the spatial component, as determined by measuring spatial coordinates, is introduced in the game level; and
wherein more commissions are determined, in response to a disturbance;
wherein, based on summary statistics, anxiety symptoms are determined by an uneven distribution of reaction times over sessions in comparison to controls, as measured in ticks by the point in time a new stimulus is presented to the point of response;
wherein increased movement is compared to control;
orwherein, based on summary statistics, depression symptoms are determined by more omissions and commissions, increased cube neighbor reaction time, and further increased neighbor reaction time when spatial relationships, as determined by measuring spatial coordinates, are applied compared to control.

Abstract
A cognitive disorder diagnostic system that employs cognitive cubes, gameplay associate with the cognitive cubes, and a data gathering as statistical analysis base device that may be a computer, that communicates the gathered data to a web server host according to a unique ID associated with particular cognitive cubes and further associated with a particular player. Using the statistical data gathered using the gameplay, various cognitive disorders may be successfully diagnosed and treated with higher reliability.

4. A statistical data gathering system, comprising;
-
a base device; a plurality of cubes, the cubes responding to three dimensional movement and neighboring with other cubes to transmit data regarding its three dimensional location and neighboring with other cubes to the base station; wherein the base devise is configured to selectively transmit images and sound to the cubes such that a player has to perform a predefined action in response; the base device further configured to periodically capture said data from the cubes and record the data into a table, the data including data pertinent to a cognitive disorder; the base device further configured to determine statistics from said table, the statistic including sums, averages, standard deviation to produce response metrics that are indicative of a cognitive disorder; a web-based server configured to store player data, including the player'"'"'s name and medical history; and wherein the base device is configured to determine a unique number associated with a particular set of cubes and to use this number to communicate with the web-based server; and further wherein the base device is configured to display player names on a cube, and in response tangible manipulation, allows a player and/or a clinician to select a player through tilting a cube, thereby allowing the base device to link a set of cubes to a remote system containing medical history and patient data of disturbance configuration in relation to movement, spatial components and coordinates.
