Abstract
The study focused on the autonomous feedback with brain entrainment, specifically involving an user-friendly interface to control brainwave entrainment by variation in cardiac autonomie function. In combination with generation of brainwave entrainment, the device would be capable of delivering relief from pressure for user. The platform included several key technologies, such that the device could use measured cardiac rhythmic variation to control a multi-channel oscillators to bring the brain to a specific entrainment state. The excitatory state of autonomie activity, which was reflected by the cardiac rhythmic variation, including the overall potential level of autonomie activity, the potential from the sympathetic branch, and the parasympathetic activity, could be used as biofeedback of body status and an evidence of interaction for more personalized adaptation. This platform could be embedded in beds, chairs, or even the floors to provide a realistic interactive experience.
