MODIFIED CELL PHONES  AND DEVICES USE BY THE  Govt.

http://www.oocities.com/socrates_truth/Pat_dev_used_by_P.htm

The govt. officers., usually block the patents of electronic devices which will be useful to them and under many cover like 'national security' or 'it will not work' will prevent it going on the market. Then they will duplicate it and use it among its members. They will also spread misinformation rumour around the very existence of these tools, so that people will think that those devices do not really exist and even less, suspect that they are used in the streets and even in the restaurants by the police assistants.  These devices used on rebellious people are brain damaging tools, which can cut the right brain power from being accessed when the devices are on. These devices are commonly circulating in the west and in many ashram in India ,including ours. They are used by the infiltrated members of the govt. which are scouting some sannyasins as part of their folk. They are often masked in ordinary cell phones covers. One cell phone-looking device, can play back previous recordings of  emotions to the brain, influencing emotions.  This is a handy tool that the officers use to cause dissent among family and friends.  That type of phone device ,can cause you to have a fit of rage when your friend has just made a ordinary comment and create an unnecessary show of yourself. The trick is that the rage was previously recorded and now is re-played by the transmitting device.  (does that sound similar to the scenario that some banned people has got from the inner circle? hhhmmmmmm !  The IC is using those tools since their alliance with the Police of Pune, years before) . Brain wave scanners concealed in their modified phones pass the target brain frequency of distress to a central computer located in central India, which record it and pass it on to other agents . Those freq. will be transmitted using  cell phones, since they are prepared for that function  .It can make you  fly into a rage, become fearful or depressed. There are so many types that Socrates team need your help to look in the patent office via computer and find out the most interesting ones.  So again :

Product Detector for a Steady Visual Evoked Potential Stimulator and Product
Detector
Abstract --- An automated visual testing system is disclosed which presents an
alternating steady state visual stimulus to a patient through an optical system
that modifies the stimulus image. As the image changes, the patient produces
evoked potentials that change. The evoked potentials are detected by a product
detector which produces the amplitude of the evoked potentials. The product
detector includes filters which isolate the patient's evoked potentials, a
modulator which detects the response using the stimulus source frequency and a
demodulator that determines the amplitude of the response. The product detector
detects the level of the steady state evoked potential signals even in the
presence of substantial background noise and extraneous electroencephalograhic
signals. These detectors can be used to monitor the evoked potential produced by
visual, aural or somatic steady state stimuli. The components described above can
be used to produce a system that can determine to which of several different
displays an observer is paying attention by providing images that blink at
different frequencies and product detectors for each of the stimulus frequencies.
The product detector producing the highest output indicates the display upon which
the observer is focused.

Non-Invasive Method & Apparatus for Modulating Brain Signals...
Rauscher, Elizabeth A.
Abstract --- This invention incorporates the discovery of new principles which
utilize magnetic and electric fields generated by time varying square wave
currents of precise repetition, width, shape and magnitude to move through coils
and cutaneously applied conductive eletrodes in order to stimulate the nervous
system and reduce pain in humans. Timer means, adjustment means, and means to
deliver current to the coils and conductive eletrodes are described, as well as a
theoretical model of the process. The invention incorporates the concept of two
cyclic expanding and collapsing magnetic fields which generate precise wave forms
in conjunction with each other to create a beat frequency which in turn causes the
ion flow in the nervous system of the human body to be efficiently moved along the
nerve path where the locus of the pain exists to thereby reduce the pain. The wave
forms are created either in one or more coils, one or more pairs of electrodes, or
a combination of the two.

Method & Apparatus for Translating the EEG into Music...
Knispel, Joel, et al.
Abstract --- A method and apparatus for applying a musical feedback signal to the
human brain, or any other brain, to induce controllable psychological and
physiological responses. A signal representing the ongoing electroencephalographic
(EEG) signal of a brain preferably is obtained from the electrode location on the
scalp known as CZ or P3 in clinical notation. A signal processor converts the
ongoing EEG into electrical signals which are converted into music by
synthesizers. The music is acoustically fed back to the brain after a time delay
calculated to shift the phase of the feedback in order to reinforce specific or
desired ongoing EEG activity from the scalp position of interest. The music is
comprised of at least one voice that follows the moment-by-moment contour of the
EEG in real time to reinforce the desired EEG activity. The music drives the brain
into resonance with the music to provide a closed loop or physiological feedback
effect. Preferably, the musical feedback comprises additional voices that embody
psychoacoustic principles as well as provide the content and direction normally
supplied by the therapist in conventional biofeedback. The invention contemplates
numerous applications for the results obtained.

USP # 4,821,326 (April 11, 1989)
Non-Audible Speech Generation Method & Apparatus
MacLeod, Norman
Abstract --- A non-audible speech generation apparatus adn method for producing
non-audible seech signals which includes an ultasonic transducer or vibrator for
projecting a series of glottal shaped ultrasonic pulses to the vocal track of a
speaker. The glottal pulses, in the approximate frequency spectrum extending from
15 kilohertz to 105 kilohertz, contains harmonics of approximately 30 times the
grequency of the acoustical harmonicsgenerated by the vocal cords, but which may
nevertheless be amplitude modulated to produce non-auduble speech by the speaker's
silently mouthing of words. The ultrasonic speech is then received by an ultasonic
transducer disposed outside of the speaker's mouth and electronically communicated
to a translation device which down converts the ultrasonics signals to
corresponding signals in the audible frquency range and synthesizes the signals
into artificial speech.

USP # 4,777,529 (October 11, 1988)
Auditory Subliminal Programming System
Schultz, Richard M., et al.
Abstract --- An auditory subliminal programming system includes a subliminal
message encoder that generates fixed frequency security tones and combines them
with a subliminal message signal to produce an encoded subliminal message signal
which is recorded on audio tape or the like. A corresponding subliminal
decoder/mixer is connected as part of a user's conventional stereo system and
receives as inputs an audio program selected by the user and the encoded
subliminal message. The decoder/mixer filters the security tones, if present, from
the subliminal message and combines the message signals with selected low
frequency signals associated with enhanced relaxation and concentration to produce
a composite auditory subliminal signal. The decoder/mixer combines the composite
subliminal signal with the selected audio program signals to form composite
signals only if it detects the presence of the security tones in the subliminal
message signal. The decoder/mixer outputs the composite signal to the audio inputs
of a conventional audio amplifier where it is amplified and broadcast by
conventional audio speakers.

USP # 4,699,153 (October 13, 1987)
System for Assessing Verbal Psychobiological Correlates
Shevrin, Howard, et al.
Abstract --- A system for assessing psychobiological conditions of a subject
utilizes a plurality of words which are selected to be in four categories as
critical stimuli. The words are presented by a tachistoscope to the subject in
subliminal and supraliminal modes of operation. Subliminal stimulation of the
subject is achieved by presenting the selected words for an exposure period of
approximately one millisecond. The supraliminal exposure time is approximately
thirty milliseconds. Prior to stimulation, the subject is diagnosed in accordance
with conventional psychoanalytical techniques to establish the presence and nature
of a pathological condition. The words are selected and categorized in four
groups: pleasant words, unpleasant words, words related to a diagnosed conscious
pathological condition, and words related to a diagnosed unconscious pathological
condition. The brain wave responses which are evoked by the stimulation are
collected via electrodes and analyzed in accordance with a transinformation
technique which is based on information signal theory for establishing a
probabilistic value which corresponds to the information content of the evoked
responses.

USP # 4,616,261 (October 7, 1986)
Method & Apparatus for Generating Subliminal Visual Messages
Crawford, James R., et al.
Abstract --- A system for generating a subliminal message during the display of a
normal television program on a television receiver utilizes a personal computer to
generate an RF carrier modulated with video signals encoding the subliminal
message. The computer runs under the control of an application program which
stores the subliminal message and also controls the computer to cause it to
generate timing signals that are provided to a single pole double-throw switch.
The source of the normal television program and the video output of the computer
are connected to the two switch inputs and the switch output is connected to the
television receiver antenna system. The timing signals cause the switch to
normally display the conventional television program and to periodically switch to
the computer output to generate the subliminal message. The video output of the
computer includes horizontal and vertical synchronizing signals which are of
substantially the same frequency as the synchronizing signals incorporated within
the normal program source but of an arbitrary phase.

Abstract --- A method and apparatus is provided with which a person suffering from
sleeplessness can be more easily relaxed and may more rapidly fall asleep. In
particular, sound pulses are emitted by an electro-acoustic transducer, according
to the cadence of which, the person seeking to fall asleep is induced to breathe
in and out over a predetermined period of time. By suitably selecting the pulse
sequence frequency, the pitch and the amplitude of the sound pulses may be
adjusted thereby enhancing the process of falling asleep.

USP # 4,508,105 (April 2, 1985)
Shadow Generating Apparatus
Whitten, Glen, et al.
Abstract --- Disclosed is an apparatus for inducing various brain wave patterns
through visual stimulation. The apparatus comprises a pair of spectacles or other
viewing apparatus having a liquid crystal display embedded in each lens. By
repetitively activating and deactivating the liquid crystals, shadows are
generated which are perceived by the subject individual wearing the viewing
apparatus. Responding to the frequency of shadow generation, the subject's brain
is thereby induced to generate sympathetic brain wave frequencies. The apparatus
finds particular utility in the generation of alpha waves. Because learning is
enhanced when the brain is in the alpha state, activities such as listening to
tapes or lectures and the like can be carried out with greater facility. Shadow
generation is accomplished through the use of a timing mechanism for each liquid
crystal display and the frequency for each is adjustable over a wide range,
permitting synchronous or asynchronous timing.

USP # 4,395,600 (July 26, 1983)
Auditory Subliminal Message System & Method
Lundy, Rene R., et al.
Abstract --- Ambient audio signals from the customer shopping area within a store
are sensed and fed to a signal processing circuit that produces a control signal
which varies with variations in the amplitude of the sensed audio signals. A
control circuit adjusts the amplitude of an auditory subliminal anti-shoplifting
message to increase with increasing amplitudes of sensed audio signals and
decrease with decreasing amplitudes of sensed audio signals. This amplitude
controlled subliminal message may be mixed with background music and transmitted
to the shopping area. To reduce distortion of the subliminal message, its
amplitude is controlled to increase at a first rate slower than the rate of
increase of the amplitude of ambient audio signals from the area. Also, the
amplitude of the subliminal message is controlled to decrease at a second rate
faster than the first rate with decreasing ambient audio signal amplitudes to
minimize the possibility of the subliminal message becoming supraliminal upon
rapid declines in ambient audio signal amplitudes in the area. A masking signal is
provided with an amplitude which is also controlled in response to the amplitude
of sensed ambient audio signals. This masking signal may be combined with the
auditory subliminal message to provide a composite signal fed to, and controlled
by, the control circuit.

Meland, Bruce C., et al.
Abstract --- Apparatus for the electrophysiological stimulation of a patient is
provided for creating an analgesic condition in the patient to induce sleep, treat
psychosomatic disorders, and to aid in the induction of electrohypnosis and
altered states of consciousness. The foregoing is achieved by repetitive stimuli
in the patient for whom external influences, namely those of sight and sound, are
intentionally excluded. The apparatus produces electrical stimulation of the
patient in the form of a modulated wave which produces impulses in the delta,
theta, alpha and beta regions of the brain's electrical activity, the electrical
stimulation being accompanied by two sources of audio stimulation, one of which is
a sinusoidal tone modulated by and synchronized with the electrical stimulation,
and the other is derived from sound recordings.

USP # 4,191,175 (March 4, 1980)
Method & Apparatus for Repetitively Producing a Noise-like Audible Signal
Nagle, William L.
Abstract --- A digital pulse generator and shift register repetitively produce
bursts of digital pulses at a first adjustable repetition frequency. The
repetition frequency of the pulses in each burst is also adjustable. A pink noise
filter accentuates the lower burst frequency components near 7 hz and
substantially attenuates all frequency components of the bursts above a first cutoff
point near 10 Khz. A tunable band pass amplifier having a center frequency
adjustable over a preselected range of frequencies optimally detectable by the
average human ear accentuates the pink noise filter output near 2.6 Khz. The
tunable amplifier drives an audible signal source with noise-like pulses of
varying amplitudes and frequency components. A low pass amplifier may be connected
to the pink noise filter to generate a train of pulses having a repetition
frequency near 7 hz which pulses a light source in synchronism with the audible
noise-like signal.

Multichannel System for & Multifactorial Method of Controlling the Nervous System
of a Living Organism
Ross, Sidney A.
Abstract --- A novel method for controlling the nervous system of a living
organism for therapeutic and research purposes, among other applications, and an
electronic system utilized in, and enabling the practice of, the invented method.
Bioelectrical signals generated in specifictopological areas of the organism's
nervous system, typically areas of the brain, are processed by the invented system
so as to produce a sensory stimulus if the system detects the presence or absence,
as the case may be, of certain characteristics in the waveform patterns of the
bioelectrical signals being monitored. The coincidence of the same or different
characteristics in two or more waveform patterns, or the non-coincidence thereof,
may be correlated with a certain desired condition of the organism's nervous
system; likewise, with respect to the coincidence or non-coincidence of different
characteristics of a single waveform pattern. In any event, the sensory stimulus
provided by the invented system, typically an audio or visual stimulus, or
combination thereof, is fed back to the organism which associates its presence
with the goal of achieving the desired condition of its nervous system. Responding
to the stimulus, the organism can be trained to control the waveform patterns of
the monitored bioelectrical signals and thereby, control its own nervous system.
The results of the coincidence function permit results heretofore unobtainable.

Malech, Robert G.
Abstract --- Apparatus for and method of sensing brain waves at a position remote
from a subject whereby electromagnetic signals of different frequencies are
simultaneously transmitted to the brain of the subject in which the signals
interfere with one another to yield a waveform which is modulated by the subject's
brain waves. The interference waveform which is representative of the brain wave
activity is re-transmitted by the brain to a receiver where it is demodulated and
amplified. The demodulated waveform is then displayed for visual viewing and
routed to a computer for further processing and analysis. The demodulated waveform
also can be used to produce a compensating signal which is transmitted back to the
brain to effect a desired change in electrical activity therein.

Nervous System Manipulation by EM Fields from Monitors
Loos, Hendricus
Abstract --- Physiological effects have been observed in a human subject in
response to stimulation of the skin with weak electromagnetic fields that are
pulsed with certain frequencies near 1/2 Hz or 2.4 Hz, such as to excite a sensory
resonance. Many computer monitors and TV tubes, when displaying pulsed images,
emit pulsed electromagnetic fields of sufficient amplitudes to cause such
excitation. It is therefore possible to manipulate the nervous system of a subject
by pulsing images displayed on a nearby computer monitor or TV set. For the
latter, the image pulsing may be imbedded in the program material, or it may be
overlaid by modulating a video stream, either as an RF signal or as a video
signal. The image displayed on a computer monitor may be pulsed effectively by a
simple computer program. For certain monitors, pulsed electromagnetic fields
capable of exciting sensory resonances in nearby subjects may be generated even as
the displayed images are pulsed with subliminal intensity.

Method and Apparatus for Analyzing Neurological Response to Emotion-Inducing
Stimuli
Patton, Richard
Abstract --- A method of determining the extent of the emotional response of a
test subject to stimului having a time-varying visual content, for example, an
advertising presentation. The test subject is positioned to observe the
presentation for a given duration, and a path of communication is established
between the subject and a brain wave detector/analyzer. The intensity component of
each of at least two different brain wave frequencies is measured during the
exposure, and each frequency is associated with a particular emotion. While the
subject views the presentation, periodic variations in the intensity component of
the brain waves of each of the particular frequencies selected is measured. The
change rates in the intensity at regular periods during the duration are also
measured. The intensity change rates are then used to construct a graph of plural
coordinate points, and these coordinate points graphically establish the composite
emotional reaction of the subject as the presentation continues.

Pulse Variability in Electric Field Manipulation of Nervous Systems
Loos, Hendricus
Abstract --- Apparatus and method for manipulating the nervous system of a subject
by applying to the skin a pulsing external electric field which, although too weak
to cause classical nerve stimulation, modulates the normal spontaneous spiking
patterns of certain kinds of afferent nerves. For certain pulse frequencies the
electric field stimulation can excite in the nervous system resonances with
observable physiological consequences. Pulse variability is introduced for the
purpose of thwarting habituation of the nervous system to the repetitive
stimulation, or to alleviate the need for precise tuning to a resonance frequency,
or to control pathological oscillatory neural activities such as tremors or
seizures. Pulse generators with stochastic and deterministic pulse variability are
disclosed, and the output of an effective generator of the latter type is
characterized.

USP # 6,091,994 (July 18, 2000)
Pulsative Manipulation of Nervous Systems
Loos, Hendricus
Abstract --- Method and apparatus for manipulating the nervous system by imparting
subliminal pulsative cooling to the subject's skin at a frequency that is suitable
for the excitation of a sensory resonance. At present, two major sensory
resonances are known, with frequencies near 1/2 Hz and 2.4 Hz. The 1/2 Hz sensory
resonance causes relaxation, sleepiness, ptosis of the eyelids, a tonic smile, a
"knot" in the stomach, or sexual excitement, depending on the precise frequency
used. The 2.4 Hz resonance causes the slowing of certain cortical activities, and
is characterized by a large increase of the time needed to silently count backward
from 100 to 60, with the eyes closed. The invention can be used by the general
public for inducing relaxation, sleep, or sexual excitement, and clinically for
the control and perhaps a treatment of tremors, seizures, and autonomic system
disorders such as panic attacks. Embodiments shown are a pulsed fan to impart
subliminal cooling pulses to the subject's skin, and a silent device which induces
periodically varying flow past the subject's skin, the flow being induced by
pulsative rising warm air plumes that are caused by a thin resistive wire which is
periodically heated by electric current pulses.

USP # 6,081,744 (June 27, 2000)
Electric Fringe Field Generator for Manipulating Nervous Systems
Loos, Hendricus
Abstract --- Apparatus and method for manipulating the nervous system of a subject
through afferent nerves, modulated by externally applied weak fluctuating electric
fields, tuned to certain frequencies such as to excite a resonance in neural
circuits. Depending on the frequency chosen, excitation of such resonances causes
in a human subject relaxation, sleepiness, sexual excitement, or the slowing of
certain cortical processes. The electric field used for stimulation of the subject
is induced by a pair of field electrodes charged to opposite polarity and placed
such that the subject is entirely outside the space between the field electrodes.
Such configuration allows for very compact devices where the field electrodes and
a battery-powered voltage generator are contained in a small casing, such as a
powder box. The stimulation by the weak external electric field relies on
frequency modulation of spontaneous spiking patterns of afferent nerves. The
method and apparatus can be used by the general public as an aid to relaxation,
sleep, or arousal, and clinically for the control and perhaps the treatment of
tremors and seizures, and disorders of the autonomic nervous system, such as panic
attacks.

data indicative of the individual's progress toward achievement of the program
milestones. The system also includes an integrated system of graphical system
interfaces for motivating the individual to comply with the program. Through the
interfaces, the individual can access the database to review the compliance data
and obtain health information from a remote source such as selected sites on the
Internet. The system also provides an electronic calendar integrated with the
behavior modification program for signaling the individual to take action pursuant
to the behavior modification program in which the calendar accesses the relational
database and integrates requirements of the program with the individual's daily
schedule, and an electronic journal for enabling the individual to enter personal
health-related information into the system on a regular basis. In addition, the
system includes an electronic meeting room for linking the individual to a
plurality of other individuals having related behavior modification programs for
facilitating group peer support sessions for compliance with the program. The
system enables motivational media presentations to be made to the individuals in
the electronic meeting room as part of the group support session to facilitate
interactive group discussion about the presentations. The entire system is
designed around a community of support motif including a graphical electronic
navigator operable by the individual to control the microprocessor for accessing
different parts of the system.

Subliminal Acoustic Manipulation of Nervous Systems
Loos, Hendricus
Abstract --- In human subjects, sensory resonances can be excited by subliminal
atmospheric acoustic pulses that are tuned to the resonance frequency. The 1/2 Hz
sensory resonance affects the autonomic nervous system and may cause relaxation,
drowsiness, or sexual excitement, depending on the precise acoustic frequency near
1/2 Hz used. The effects of the 2.5 Hz resonance include slowing of certain
cortical processes, sleepiness, and disorientation. For these effects to occur,
the acoustic intensity must lie in a certain deeply subliminal range. Suitable
apparatus consists of a portable battery-powered source of weak subaudio acoustic
radiation. The method and apparatus can be used by the general public as an aid to
relaxation, sleep, or sexual arousal, and clinically for the control and perhaps
treatment of insomnia, tremors, epileptic seizures, and anxiety disorders. There
is further application as a nonlethal weapon that can be used in law enforcement
standoff situations, for causing drowsiness and disorientation in targeted
subjects. It is then preferable to use venting acoustic monopoles in the form of a
device that inhales and exhales air with subaudio frequency.

Abstract --- A speech-based system for assessing the psychological, physiological,
or other characteristics of a test subject is described. The system includes a
knowledge base that stores one or more speech models, where each speech model
corresponds to a characteristic of a group of reference subjects. Signal
processing circuitry, which may be implemented in hardware, software and/or
firmware, compares the test speech parameters of a test subject with the speech
models. In one embodiment, each speech model is represented by a statistical timeordered
series of frequency representations of the speech of the reference
subjects. The speech model is independent of a priori knowledge of style
parameters associated with the voice or speech. The system includes speech
parameterization circuitry for generating the test parameters in response to the
test subject's speech. This circuitry includes speech acquisition circuitry, which
may be located remotely from the knowledge base. The system further includes
output circuitry for outputting at least one indicator of a characteristic in
response to the comparison performed by the signal processing circuitry. The
characteristic may be time-varying, in which case the output circuitry outputs the
characteristic in a time-varying manner. The output circuitry also may output a
ranking of each output characteristic. In one embodiment, one or more
characteristics may indicate the degree of sincerity of the test subject, where
the degree of sincerity may vary with time. The system may also be employed to
determine the effectiveness of treatment for a psychological or physiological
disorder by comparing psychological or physiological characteristics,
respectively, before and after treatment.

Supraliminal Method of Education...
D'Alitalia, Joseph A., et al.
Abstract --- A method of behavior modification involves having a patient view
supraliminal video messages superimposed upon an underlying video presentation.
The video messages incorporate messages wherein at least some of the messages link
a desired modified behavior to positive feelings of the patient. A supraliminal
message generator and superimposer iteratively selects individual messages for
display from the sequence of messages, decompressing the messages as required, and
places the selected messages in a buffer memory of a video generation device. A
processor of the supraliminal message generator and superimposer then fades the
selected message from an invisible level to a visible level on the video display,
and then fades the selected message from the visible level back to the invisible
level.

Device and Method for Estimating a Mental Decision
Smyth, Christopher
Abstract --- A device and method for estimating a mental decision to select a
visual cue from the viewer's eye fixation and corresponding single event evoked
cerebral potential. The device comprises an eyetracker, an electronic biosignal
processor and a digital computer. The eyetracker determines the instantaneous
viewing direction from oculometric measurements and a head position and
orientation sensor. The electronic processor continually estimates the cerebral
electroencephalogramic potential from scalp surface measurements following
corrections for electrooculogramic, electromyogramic and electrocardiogramic
artifacts. The digital computer analyzes the viewing direction data for a fixation
and then extracts the corresponding single event evoked cerebral potential. The
fixation properties, such as duration, start and end pupil sizes, end state
(saccade or blink) and gaze fixation count, and the parametric representation of
the evoked potential are all inputs to an artificial neural network for outputting
an estimate of the selection interest in the gaze point of regard. The artificial
neural network is trained off-line prior to application to represent the mental
decisions of the viewer. The device can be used to control computerized machinery
from a video display by ocular gaze point of regard alone, by determining which
visual cue the viewer is looking at and then using the estimation of the taskrelated

Method and Apparatus for Introducing Subliminal Changes to Audio Stimuli
Lauffer, Martha A., et al.
Abstract --- A method and apparatus for introducing gradual changes to an audio
signal so that the changes are subliminal. The changes can involve tempo and
volume, for example, and can take the form of a gentle gradient having ever
increasing/decreasing ramp-like changes over a sufficient duration, or a more
complex program involving several gentle gradients. In the preferred embodiment,
an enhanced audio play-back device such as a portable audio cassette recorder can
be programmed to subliminally alter the characteristics of a standard pre-recorded
tape containing music, for example. As a motivational tool during walking, jogging
or other repetitive exercise, the tempo is gradually increased over a period of
time to encourage a corresponding gradual (and subliminal) increase in physical
exertion by a user whose rate of movement is proportional to the tempo of the
music. The tempo can be either manually changed in conjunction with a subliminal
program, or by itself in an override mode, or by itself in a version of the
present-inventive audio play-back device which allows only manual tempo
alternation. In an alternate embodiment, a special pre-recorded tape contains
subliminal changes in tempo, for example, for play-back on a standard audio
cassette recorder (which operates at one speed, only) to cause the same effect as
the preferred embodiment.

USP # 5,170,381 (December 8, 1992)
Method for Mixing Audio Subliminal Recordings
Taylor, Eldon, et al.
Abstract --- Audio subliminal recordings are made in which in addition to using a
primary carrier, such as music, two audio channels are used to deliver subliminal
messages to the brain. On one channel, accessing the left brain hemisphere, the
message delivered is meaningfully spoken, forward-masked, permissive affirmations
delivered in a round-robin manner by a male voice, a female voice and a child's
voice. On the other channel, accessing the right brain, directive messages, in the
same voices, are recorded in backward-masked (or meta-contrast). The three voices
are recording in round-robin fashion with full echo reverberation. The audio
tracks are mixed using a special processor which converts sound frequencies to
electrical impulses and tracks the subliminal message to synchronize the
subliminal message in stereo with the primary carrier. The processor maintains
constant gain differential between the primary carrier and the subliminal verbiage
and, with the subliminal verbiage being recorded with round-robin, full echo
reverberation, ensures that none of a message is lost. The primary carrier should
be continuous music without breaks or great differences in movements.

  Commercial Observation Satellites At the Leading Edge of Global
  Transparency, RAND Monographs/Reports MR1229, 2001
  http://www.rand.org/pubs/monograph_reports/MR1229/

  This document gives an overview of global access to observation satellites
  and addresses the issues of "global transparency" that this has created, including
  potentially beneficial information, such as civilian access to information about nuclear
  buildup. The framing of "open skies" issues in the context of the rights of photographers
  and first amendment rights is important because advocates of privacy rights
  should be aware that these issues are also important.

  However, this report gives scant coverage to privacy rights, nor does it adequately address
  how private citizens could be protected from stalking and harassment by users of satellite
  data who spy on their lives and movements.

  The assumption of many of the contributors to this report -- that the use
  of observation satellites is, for better or worse, here to stay -- should be
  re-examined in terms of the importance to human beings of privacy and of
  the kind of world we want to live in the future.

Abstract --- Data to be displayed is combined with a composite video signal. The data is stored in a memory in digital form. Each byte of the data is read out in sequential fashion to determine: the recurrence display rate of the data according to the frame sync pulses of the video signal; the location of the data within the video image according to the line sync pulses of the video signal; and the location of the data display within the video image according to the position information. Synchronization of the data with the video image is derived from the sync pulses of the composite video signal. A similar technique is employed to combine sound data with an audio signal. Data to be displayed may be presented as a subliminal message or may persist for a given time interval. The data may be derived from a variety of sources including a prerecorded or live video signal. The message may be a reminder message displayed upon a television screen to remind the viewer of an appointment. The data may be stored in a variety of different memory devices capable of high speed data retrieval. The data may be generated locally on-line or off-line and transferred to memory which stores the data necessary to create the message.

Product Detector for a Steady Visual Evoked Potential Stimulator and Product Detector
Abstract --- An automated visual testing system is disclosed which presents an alternating steady state visual stimulus to a patient through an optical system that modifies the stimulus image. As the image changes, the patient produces evoked potentials that change. The evoked potentials are detected by a product detector which produces the amplitude of the evoked potentials. The product detector includes filters which isolate the patient's evoked potentials, a modulator which detects the response using the stimulus source frequency and a demodulator that determines the amplitude of the response. The product detector detects the level of the steady state evoked potential signals even in the presence of substantial background noise and extraneous electroencephalograhic signals. These detectors can be used to monitor the evoked potential produced by visual, aural or somatic steady state stimuli. The components described above can be used to produce a system that can determine to which of several different displays an observer is paying attention by providing images that blink at different frequencies and product detectors for each of the stimulus frequencies. The product detector producing the highest output indicates the display upon which the observer is focused.

Abstract --- This invention incorporates the discovery of new principles which utilize magnetic and electric fields generated by time varying square wave currents of precise repetition, width, shape and magnitude to move through coils and cutaneously applied conductive eletrodes in order to stimulate the nervous system and reduce pain in humans. Timer means, adjustment means, and means to deliver current to the coils and conductive eletrodes are described, as well as a theoretical model of the process. The invention incorporates the concept of two cyclic expanding and collapsing magnetic fields which generate precise wave forms in conjunction with each other to create a beat frequency which in turn causes the ion flow in the nervous system of the human body to be efficiently moved along the nerve path where the locus of the pain exists to thereby reduce the pain. The wave forms are created either in one or more coils, one or more pairs of electrodes, or a combination of the two.

Method & Apparatus for Translating the EEG into Music...
Knispel, Joel, et  al.
Abstract --- A method and apparatus for applying a musical feedback signal to the human brain, or any other brain, to induce controllable psychological and physiological responses. A signal representing the ongoing electroencephalographic (EEG) signal of a brain preferably is obtained from the electrode location on the scalp known as CZ or P3 in clinical notation. A signal processor converts the ongoing EEG into electrical signals which are converted into music by synthesizers. The music is acoustically fed back to the brain after a time delay calculated to shift the phase of the feedback in order to reinforce specific or desired ongoing EEG activity from the scalp position of interest. The music is comprised of at least one voice that follows the moment-by-moment contour of the EEG in real time to reinforce the desired EEG activity. The music drives the brain into resonance with the music to provide a closed loop or physiological feedback effect. Preferably, the musical feedback comprises additional voices that embody psychoacoustic principles as well as provide the content and direction normally supplied by the therapist in conventional biofeedback. The invention contemplates numerous applications for the results obtained.

Auditory Subliminal Programming System
Schultz, Richard M., et al.
Abstract --- An auditory subliminal programming system includes a subliminal message encoder that generates fixed frequency security tones and combines them with a subliminal message signal to produce an encoded subliminal message signal which is recorded on audio tape or the like. A corresponding subliminal decoder/mixer is connected as part of a user's conventional stereo system and receives as inputs an audio program selected by the user and the encoded subliminal message. The decoder/mixer filters the security tones, if present, from the subliminal message and combines the message signals with selected low frequency signals associated with enhanced relaxation and concentration to produce a composite auditory subliminal signal. The decoder/mixer combines the composite subliminal signal with the selected audio program signals to form composite signals only if it detects the presence of the security tones in the subliminal message signal. The decoder/mixer outputs the composite signal to the audio inputs of a conventional audio amplifier where it is amplified and broadcast by conventional audio speakers.

Abstract --- A system for assessing psychobiological conditions of a subject utilizes a plurality of words which are selected to be in four categories as critical stimuli. The words are presented by a tachistoscope to the subject in subliminal and supraliminal modes of operation. Subliminal stimulation of the subject is achieved by presenting the selected words for an exposure period of approximately one millisecond. The supraliminal exposure time is approximately thirty milliseconds. Prior to stimulation, the subject is diagnosed in accordance with conventional psychoanalytical techniques to establish the presence and nature of a pathological condition. The words are selected and categorized in four groups: pleasant words, unpleasant words, words related to a diagnosed conscious pathological condition, and words related to a diagnosed unconscious pathological condition. The brain wave responses which are evoked by the stimulation are collected via electrodes and analyzed in accordance with a transinformation technique which is based on information signal theory for establishing a probabilistic value which corresponds to the information content of the evoked responses.

Shadow Generating Apparatus
Whitten, Glen, et al.
Abstract --- Disclosed is an apparatus for inducing various brain wave patterns through visual stimulation. The apparatus comprises a pair of spectacles or other viewing apparatus having a liquid crystal display embedded in each lens. By repetitively activating and deactivating the liquid crystals, shadows are generated which are perceived by the subject individual wearing the viewing apparatus. Responding to the frequency of shadow generation, the subject's brain is thereby induced to generate sympathetic brain wave frequencies. The apparatus finds particular utility in the generation of alpha waves. Because learning is enhanced when the brain is in the alpha state, activities such as listening to tapes or lectures and the like can be carried out with greater facility. Shadow generation is accomplished through the use of a timing mechanism for each liquid crystal display and the frequency for each is adjustable over a wide range, permitting synchronous or asynchronous timing.

Auditory Subliminal Message System & Method
Lundy, Rene R., et al.
Abstract --- Ambient audio signals from the customer shopping area within a store are sensed and fed to a signal processing circuit that produces a control signal which varies with variations in the amplitude of the sensed audio signals. A control circuit adjusts the amplitude of an auditory subliminal anti-shoplifting message to increase with increasing amplitudes of sensed audio signals and decrease with decreasing amplitudes of sensed audio signals. This amplitude controlled subliminal message may be mixed with background music and transmitted to the shopping area. To reduce distortion of the subliminal message, its amplitude is controlled to increase at a first rate slower than the rate of increase of the amplitude of ambient audio signals from the area. Also, the amplitude of the subliminal message is controlled to decrease at a second rate faster than the first rate with decreasing ambient audio signal amplitudes to minimize the possibility of the subliminal message becoming supraliminal upon rapid declines in ambient audio signal amplitudes in the area. A masking signal is provided with an amplitude which is also controlled in response to the amplitude of sensed ambient audio signals. This masking signal may be combined with the auditory subliminal message to provide a composite signal fed to, and controlled by, the control circuit.
