Active symbolic self design method and apparatus

A method for behavior modification and memory enhancement utilizing a central processing unit, comprising compiling a symbolic profile of a subject participant, interpreting the subject participant's stored symbolic constructs, instructing the subject participant using virtual reality means, evaluating and recording physiological parameters of the participant and delivering symbolic containers to the participant; and delivering symbolic prescriptions to the subject participant for behavior modification and memory enhancement. The methodology allows for accessing and recognition of stored memory symbolic constructs by isolating symbolic quests embodied within multiple multimedia virtual reality events, and delivering the multimedia virtual reality events to a user by artificial intelligence and multi-media means, applying the symbolic constructs to the user. Apparatuses for behavior modification and memory enhancement, comprising devices for evaluating and constructing a symbolic profile of a subject participant, interpretative apparatus, virtual reality instruction apparatus for instructing the participant in behavior and memory modification, apparatus for evaluating and recording physiologic parameters of the subject participant and delivering symbolic containers to the participant and delivery apparatus for delivering symbolic prescriptions to the participant are included.

An accelerated learning and rehabilitation system for teaching the performance of a musical instrument, a remotely operated system, a sport, a weapon, and for brain rehabilitation and other uses includes generating sensory cues including auditory, haptic and visual sensory cues capable of being perceived by a user. The generated sensory cues are applied to the user and are dependent on a position of at least one body member of a performer relative to a performance element of a performance object with which an event is performed. The sensory cues are effective for stimulating a various processing center of a brain of the user so that user learns how to position his body member corresponding to the position of the performer of the event. The sensory cues can include visual sensory cues effective for stimulating the visual processing center of the brain of the user. The visual sensory cues are synchronized with the other applied sensory cues so that the position of the body member of the performer is virtually visually indicated in synchronization with the other sensory cues so that the visual processing center is stimulated with a visual sensory cue in synchronization with the stimulation of other processing centers corresponding to the other sensory cues for teaching the user to perform a version of the event.

Illumination apparatus

In an illumination apparatus, a control unit starts lighting of a light source at a first time before a wake-up set time and executes a first control pattern to increase a dimming ratio of the light source from the first time to a second time determined based on the wake-up set time and a second control pattern to further increase the dimming ratio of the light source from the second time to a third time determined based on the wake-up set time. When a change curve of the dimming ratio in the first control pattern and the second control pattern is applied to a function represented by the equation: Y(t)=d+(a−d) / (1+(t / c)b), the time c becomes closer to the second time than the first time in the first control pattern, and becomes closer to the second time than the third time in the second control pattern.
