System and program for cognitive skill training

PendingUS20180286272A1Accurate targetPrecise personalized measurementElectroencephalographySensorsSustaining attentionBehavioral inhibition
This invention enables targeting, personalized measurement, and management of cognitive skills development by users, clinicians, teachers, and parents. The invention features a game based virtual learning curriculum for targeting and developing the underlying cognitive skills of executive functions. The methods and systems of the invention provide an effective and rapid video game-based training curriculum to improve the cognitive skills such as focused attention, sustained attention, cognitive inhibition, behavioral inhibition, selective attention, alternating attention, divided attention, interference control, novelty inhibition, delay of gratification, inner voice, motivational inhibition, and self-regulation. This curriculum utilizes: (i) each of the cognitive processes that underlie attention control and impulse inhibition; (ii) the identification of measurable and trainable cognitive skills; and (iii) game design and game mechanics that effectively train and enable retention of those skills. The game-based system provides a medical professional, clinician, parent, teacher and user with the ability to measure and manage training of targeted cognitive skills to reach a desired performance goal.

Baseball striking practice device

A ball hitting practice device featuring a practice ball slidably located upon a tether. The tether is attached to a support structure thereby placing the practice ball in a target position to be hit by a user. The support structure may be mounted to a base, driven into the ground, or attached to a wall. The ball is slidably mounted to the tether and is positioned in a target position for striking by a user by a ball positioner also located on the tether in a fixed position that is either adjustable or permanent. Once struck during use, the practice ball and attached tether wrap around the support structure and may be aided in the return to the target position by an elongated biasing device attached to the distal end of the tether and the support structure or another fixed point of attachment. An optional cam may be used to adjust the radius of a vertical post of the support structure thereby allowing the user to alter the return speed of the ball to the target position by adjusting the cam. The tether may also act as the elongated biasing device in one embodiment of the device.

Baseball striking practice device

A ball hitting practice device featuring a practice ball slidably locateable upon a tether. The tether is attached to a support structure thereby placing the practice ball in a target position to be hit by a user. The support structure may be any versatile pole or pole like structure upon which fasteners at the ends of the tether will attach. The best mode features cuffs mounted at both ends of the tether which open and reengage to provide an easy encircling mount to the support structure for the tether. The ball is slidably mounted to the tether and is positioned in a target position for striking by a user by a ball positioner also located on the tether in a fixed position that is either adjustable or permanent. Once struck during use, the practice ball and attached tether wraps around a vertical support structure or pole and may be aided in the return to the target position by forming the tether from elastic material which will naturally bias the ball to unwind from the support structure for a subsequent strikes.
