DEVICE FOR MEASURING CEREBRAL ACTIVITY LEVEL BY EMITTING SENSORY IRRITANTS Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: medical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: device has means for stimulating sensory organs (auditory and visual analyzers), thermo- and mechanoreceptors and transcutaneous electrostimulation in various combinations and sequences. Device has technical means providing sensory irritations. A set of light-emitting diodes comprising white, blue, green, red ones or their combinations are applied in particular for stimulating visual analyzer. Some of them are located on internal surfaces of sun-protection glasses and others arranged on periphery as radial divergent lines. To stimulate auditory analyzer, a set of micro speakers is used, one of which is mounted in the center of head phone and the others are concentrically arranged at least in two rows on periphery. To stimulate mechanoreceptors, a set of infrared light-emitting diodes is used, one of which is mounted in the center of thermode and the others are concentrically arranged at least in two rows on periphery. To carry out transcutaneous electrostimulation, electrodes with centrally arranged contact plate and electrically isolated contact plates concentrically arranged at least in two rows on periphery. Sensory irritation generators have independent communication channels having centrally and peripherally arranged stimulators. The generators are electrically connected to control unit connected to PC.

EFFECT: wide range of functional applications; enhanced effectiveness of human organism mental correction.
