Method and system for monitoring attainment of flow state for activity by user

Abstract

Disclosed is a method for monitoring attainment of flow state for activity by user. The method comprises: receiving first sensor data from eye-tracking means (202), and second sensor data from heart rate monitoring device (204), wherein first and second sensor data are collected while user is engaged in activity; determining eye fixation frequency and eye fixation percentage, and determining heart rate and heart rate variability, by processing first and second sensor data, respectively; determining focus index (304) of user, based on eye fixation frequency and eye fixation percentage; determining stress index (306) of user, based the heart rate and heart rate variability; determining flow index (308) of user, based on difference between focus index and stress index; and detecting that user has attained flow state for activity, when determined flow index is equal to or greater than predefined flow index for activity.
