[0002] With the fast pace of modern life, sleep problems have become a significant factor affecting people's physical and mental health. Currently, existing sleep aids typically assess sleep status by monitoring physiological signals such as brain waves and heart rate, and then provide non-invasive interventions accordingly. However, these devices primarily influence sleep indirectly by adjusting environmental parameters (such as temperature, humidity, and sound), resulting in a relatively weak sleep-aiding effect. Summary of the Invention

[0023] Optionally, the feature information of the first timing segment includes signal frequency and signal amplitude; the set feature includes the signal frequency being within a set frequency range and the signal amplitude being greater than or equal to a set amplitude.

[0053] <System Implementation Example>

[0054] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structural composition of a neuromodulation device according to one embodiment. Figure 1 As shown, the neuromodulation device 100 may include a controller 10, an electroencephalogram (EEG) detection device 20, a first illumination device 30, and a second illumination device 40. Here, the controller 10 may be a sleep intervention control device of the neuromodulation device.

[0055] The above-mentioned EEG detection device 20 can be an EEG sampling module, which has a multi-channel dry electrode EEG sensor to collect EEG signals from the target subject wearing the neuromodulation device 100.

[0056] The first illumination device 30 and the second illumination device 40 described above can be light source arrays composed of multiple independently addressable and controllable 810nm and 1064nm light sources. The first illumination device 30 and the second illumination device 40 can be light source arrays composed of LED lamps or VCSEL laser diodes, and are not limited here.

How the computer program controls the processor to operate is well known in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0059] <Method Implementation>

[0060] Figure 2 This is a schematic flowchart of a sleep intervention control method using a neuromodulation device according to one embodiment. The implementing entity is, for example, a... Figure 1 Controller 10.

[0061] like Figure 2 As shown, the sleep intervention control method of the neuromodulation device in this embodiment may include the following steps S210 to S230:

[0062] Step S210: In response to the trigger command of the target subject wearing the neuromodulation device, control the operation of the EEG detection device of the neuromodulation device.

[0063] In this embodiment, when the target subject wears the neuromodulation device, the EEG detection device in the neuromodulation device operates, that is, the aforementioned EEG acquisition module begins to work, acquiring the target subject's EEG signals. The target subject here is generally a human or an animal that experiences sleep disorders, and is not limited to any particular species.

[0064] In this embodiment, the neuromodulation device has a sleep induction mode; step S210 may include the following steps S310 and S320:

[0065] Step S310: In response to the trigger command of the target subject wearing the neuromodulation device, the neuromodulation device is set to enter the sleep induction mode.

[0066] Step S320: In the sleep induction mode, control the operation of the second light source and the EEG detection device of the neuromodulation device; wherein the light intensity output by the second light source is less than the light intensity output by the first light source.

[0067] Step S220: When the first EEG signal fed back by the EEG detection device indicates that the target object is in a sleep state, the first light device of the neuromodulation device is controlled to operate.

[0068] In this embodiment, during the sleep induction mode, the second illumination device and the EEG detection device of the neuromodulation device operate simultaneously. The second illumination device can output continuous light waves with a wavelength of 850nm, acting on the prefrontal and frontal regions of the target subject, which helps to reduce the excitability of the target subject's sympathetic nervous system, promote relaxation and sleep, and further enhance the sleep-aiding effect of the neuromodulation device.

[0069] In some embodiments, prior to step S220, the method further includes the following steps S410 and S420:

[0070] Step S410: Obtain the first EEG signal fed back by the EEG detection device.

[0071] Step S420: Determine whether the signal strength of the first EEG signal tends to the first trend.

[0072] Based on this, step S220 may include the following step S430:

[0073] Step S430: When the first EEG signal fed back by the EEG detection device tends to the first set trend, it is determined that the first EEG signal fed back by the EEG detection device indicates that the target object is in a sleep state, and the first light device of the neuromodulation device is controlled to operate.

[0074] In this embodiment, the controller determines the frequency and amplitude changes of the first EEG signal. When the controller determines that the first EEG signal gradually changes from a high-frequency, low-amplitude waveform (such as a beta wave) in a waking state to a low-frequency, high-amplitude waveform (such as an alpha wave or a theta wave), it determines that the target object's EEG signal tends towards a first preset trend. When the first EEG signal fed back by the EEG detection device tends towards the first preset trend, the controller determines that the first EEG signal fed back by the EEG detection device indicates that the target object is in a sleep state, and controls the first light illumination device of the neuromodulation device to operate, so as to provide imperceptible intervention to help the target object fall asleep.

[0075] Step S230: When the second EEG signal fed back by the EEG detection device meets the set conditions, adjust the operating parameters of the first illumination device.

[0076] In this embodiment, the set conditions are used to measure whether the deep sleep of the target subject reflected by the second EEG signal meets the requirements of human sleep. That is, when the second EEG signal does not meet the set conditions, the first illumination device continues to operate according to the current operating parameters. When the second EEG signal meets the set conditions, the operating power and / or operating time of the first illumination device are adjusted to improve the sleep condition of the target subject.

[0077] In some embodiments, prior to step S230, the method further includes the following steps S510 to S540:

[0078] Step S510: Obtain the second EEG signal fed back by the EEG detection device.

[0079] Step S520: Based on the sampling period corresponding to the second EEG signal, obtain a signal time segment with a first set duration.

[0080] In some examples, the sampling period can be the period corresponding to the second EEG signal fed back by the EEG detection device. The first set duration can be 120 minutes. The signal timing segment can reflect the period corresponding to the second EEG signal being converted to 0-120 minutes and the second EEG signal being mapped to 0-120 minutes.

[0081] Step S530: Divide the signal timing segment into multiple first timing segments according to a set interval duration.

[0082] In this embodiment, the set interval duration can be 30 seconds, 1 minute, or other durations, and is not limited here.

[0083] Step S540: Based on the feature information of the first time segment in the signal timing segment, determine the second time segment that meets the set features among multiple first time segments, and use it as the deep sleep segment.

[0084] In some examples, the feature information of the first time segment can be the signal frequency of the EEG signal in the first time segment. The feature can be that the signal frequency is within 0.5-4Hz. Then, the second time segment can be the time segment with the signal frequency within 0.5-4Hz in all the first time segments of the signal time segment.

[0085] Based on this, step S230 may include the following step S550:

[0086] In step S550, when the proportion of the duration of the deep sleep segment in the duration of the signal timing segment is lower than the first set ratio, it is determined that the second EEG signal fed back by the EEG detection device meets the set conditions, and the operating parameters of the first illumination device are adjusted.

[0087] In some examples, the first set ratio is, for example, 20%, but this is not a limitation.

[0088] Step S550 can be as follows: when the proportion of the deep sleep segment in the total duration of multiple consecutive signal time segments is lower than a first preset ratio, determine that the second EEG signal fed back by the EEG detection device meets the preset conditions, and adjust the operating parameters of the first illumination device. The multiple consecutive signal time segments can be two, three, or five consecutive signal time segments, and are not limited here. For example, if there are three consecutive signal time segments, then these three signal time segments can correspond to 0-120min, 120min-240min, and 240min-360min.

[0089] In this embodiment, by determining the deep sleep segment, the sleep characteristics of the target object are converted into data to determine whether the duration of the target object's deep sleep meets the human sleep requirements, thereby providing data support for subsequent adjustments to the first illumination device.

[0090] In some embodiments, the feature information of the first timing segment includes signal frequency and signal amplitude; the set features include signal frequency within a set frequency range and signal amplitude greater than or equal to a set amplitude.

[0091] In some examples, the frequency range can be set to 0.5-4Hz, and the signal amplitude can be 75μV. That is, within the signal timing segment, time segments with a frequency range of 0.5-4Hz and a signal amplitude greater than or equal to 75μV are extracted, i.e., deep sleep segments. When the duration of this deep sleep segment exceeds 20% of the total signal timing segment duration, the first illumination device maintains its current operating parameters. When the duration of this deep sleep segment is less than 20% of the total signal timing segment duration, the controller adjusts the operating duration and / or operating power of the first illumination device; that is, the controller increases the operating duration of the first illumination device and / or increases its operating power.

[0092] In some examples, a first set duration of 120 minutes is used. Sleep staging algorithms, such as the proportion of delta band power in the EEG signal, are applied based on EEG signals to detect the proportion of deep sleep. Specifically, the second EEG signal of each time segment is divided and filtered for noise reduction at 30-second intervals, resulting in multiple first time segments. Then, a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm is applied to each first time segment to identify and measure all Delta waves that meet the criteria of "signal frequency within 0.5-2Hz" and "signal amplitude ≥75μV," which are considered second time segments. Finally, these second time segments are accumulated. If the duration of this second time segment reaches or exceeds 20% of the total 30-second duration of the signal time segments (i.e., ≥6 seconds), then this second time segment is determined to be stage N3 deep sleep.

[0093] In some embodiments, prior to step S230, the method further includes the following steps S610 and S620:

[0094] Step S610: Determine whether the proportion of the duration of the deep sleep segment in the duration of the signal timing segment exceeds a second set ratio.

[0095] In this embodiment, the second set ratio is, for example, 40%, and is not limited here.

[0096] Step S620: When the proportion of the duration of the deep sleep segment to the duration of the signal timing segment exceeds a second preset ratio, the operating power of the first illumination device is determined.

[0097] Based on this, step S230 may include the following steps S630 and S640:

[0098] Step S630: When the operating power of the first illumination device is at the set lower limit value, the operating time of the first illumination device is shortened by a third set time.

[0099] Step S640: When the operating power of the first illumination device is higher than the lower power limit, the operating power of the first illumination device is reduced by a set intensity.

[0100] In this embodiment, the upper limit of the running time can be 20 minutes, the lower limit of the running time can be 20 minutes, and the third set duration can be 1 minute. The upper limit of the operating power can be 300 mW / cm², the lower limit of the operating power can be 150 mW / cm², and the set intensity can be 10 mW / cm². That is, when the operating power of the first lighting device reaches 150 mW / cm², the running time of the first lighting device is shortened by 1 minute. When the operating power of the first lighting device does not reach 150 mW / cm², the operating power is preferentially reduced by 10 mW / cm². In other words, by prioritizing the adjustment of the operating power and then adjusting the running time, the target object can be placed under a relatively stable lighting condition, further optimizing the sleep-aiding effect on the target object.

[0101] In some embodiments, the neural modulation device has a calibration mode; prior to step S210, the method further includes the following steps S710 to S730:

[0102] Step S710: In response to the calibration command of the target subject wearing the neuromodulation device, control the EEG detection device of the neuromodulation device to operate independently.

[0103] Step S720: Obtain the third EEG signal of the target subject through an EEG detection device.

[0104] Step S730: Based on the sleep characteristics of the target object reflected by the third EEG signal, set the initial power and initial duration of the first illumination device of the neuromodulation device.

[0105] In this embodiment, the neuromodulation device is in calibration mode for the first seven nights of its initial use. In calibration mode, the controller operates the EEG detection device independently, monitoring and recording only the target subject's natural N3 sleep percentage, i.e., the target subject's sleep characteristics. Using data from multiple consecutive nights, the controller calculates the target subject's average N3 sleep level—a personalized baseline—and sets the initial power and duration of the neuromodulation device's first illumination device based on this baseline. In other words, by setting the calibration mode, the comfort level of the target subject when using the neuromodulation device can be improved.
