A method for designing a human interface of a system includes establishing guidelines for avoiding sensory overload conditions of a human interacting with the system. The method also includes identifying an event associated with the system producing a potential sensory overload condition. The method further includes generating a human interface design solution based on the guidelines for modifying an operation of the system to help alleviate the potential sensory overload condition associated with the event. A prediction of a performance capability of a human subject interacting with the system may be made by determining a first parameter indicative of an intelligence of a human subject, determining a second parameter indicative of a multiple sensory input memory capacity of the human subject, and determining a third parameter indicative of an interactive monitoring capacity of the human subject and then using the parameters to generate an overall parameter indicative of a performance capacity.

A safety device of a gun includes elements for determining the geographical location of the gun and the shooting direction, elements for receiving via a short range radio link from a gun user's mobile phone a safety area map related to the current location and location data of moving or fixed targets in this safety area. The safety device additionally has elements for determining those moments, when the gun is in the shooting position. When the gun is in the shooting position the safety device determines the risk area, within which there must be no targets preventing shooting. The safety device determines the size of the safety area based on the type of gun and the shooting direction of the gun. If it is detected that there are targets preventing shooting in the determined risk area, then the safety device generates a warning detectable with humans senses regarding this.

A non-invasive method for storing, editing, deleting, appending, and retrieving infinite quantities of audio, visual or tactile data from targeted neuronal groups in the human brain. The process involves transmitting sequenced, buffered, and indexed data streams to human sensory receptors. Each data stream contains an ordinal or cardinal position that identifies a targeted group of neurons. Linear data streams may be stacked vertically and then transmitted to manufacture complete thoughts. Both linear and stacked data streams create artificial memory constructs. The manufactured memories appear older than they are because of the indexed and undated artificial mnemonic environmental variables embedded in the data stream. This method further creates a genius complex in some individuals whereby implanted memories are recalled quickly and precisely using a sequenced query that specifies the neuronal group. In stark contrast, the brain indexes naturally occurring memories with non-indexed and unknown variables randomly selected by the human senses.

When a control part (3) outputs human detection signals from a human sensing sensor (4), a switch lightening a circuit part (2) is turned on and two parties of two light sources (1A, 1B) are lightened. Therefore, light illuminating from the light source (1B) to a ceiling surface (S) is sued to improve brightness of lighting space (brightness refers to a target value). On the other hand, when the control part (3) does not output the human detection signals from the human sensing sensor(4), one party of the switch lightening the circuit part (2) is kept to be on to make the light source (1A) be lightened, and make the other party of the switch be off to make the light source (1B) be extinguished. Therefore, energy conservation can be promoted via making the light source (1B) be extinguished under the condition that no people exist in the lighting space.
