Abstract

Example methods, apparatus, systems and machine readable instructions are disclosed for presenting stimulus material. An example method includes selecting first media to present to a user based on a current location of the user. The example method also includes monitoring neuro-response data gathered from the user exposed to the first media, the neuro-response data gathered from a mobile device used by the user. In addition, the example method includes determining an effectiveness of the first media based on the neuro-response data and selecting second media to present to the user based on the effectiveness of the first media.

Claims (31)

1 . A method comprising:

selecting first media to present to a user based on a current location of the user;

monitoring neuro-response data gathered from the user exposed to the first media, the neuro-response data gathered from a mobile device used by the user;

determining an effectiveness of the first media based on the neuro-response data; and

selecting second media to present to the user based on the effectiveness of the first media.

2 . A method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the neuro-response data comprises electroencephalographic data.

3 . A method as defined in claim 2 , wherein the effectiveness is determined based on an interaction between two frequency bands of the electroencephalographic data.

4 . A method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the neuro-response data comprises electrooculographic data.

5 . A method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the selecting the second media occurs in real-time relative to the monitoring.

6 . A method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the second media is a dynamic adjustment of the first media.

7 . A method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the first media is selection selected based on user profile information comprising data indicative of previously effective media.

8 . A method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the mobile device is a portable headset.

9 . A method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the selecting the second media is based on a path of the user.

10 . An apparatus comprising:

an analyzer to select first media to present to a user based on a current location of the user; and

a sensor to monitor neuro-response data gathered from the user exposed to the first media, the analyzer to determine an effectiveness of the first media based on the neuro-response data and select second media to present to the user based on the effectiveness of the first media.

11 . An apparatus as defined in claim 10 , wherein the sensor comprises electrodes and the neuro-response data comprises at least one of electroencephalographic data or electrooculographic data.

12 . (canceled)

13 . An apparatus as defined in claim 10 , wherein the sensor is coupled to a portable headset.

14 . An apparatus as defined in claim 10 , wherein the analyzer is to select the second media in real-time relative to the monitoring.

15 . An apparatus as defined in claim 10 , wherein the analyzer is to dynamically adjust the first media to form the second media.

16 . An apparatus as defined in claim 10 , wherein the analyzer is to select the first media based on user profile information comprising data indicative of previously effective media.

17 . A machine readable storage medium having instructions that, when executed, cause a machine to at least:

select first media to present to a user based on a current location of the user;

monitor neuro-response data gathered from the user exposed to the first media, the neuro-response data gathered from a mobile device used by the user;

determine an effectiveness of the first media based on the neuro-response data; and

select second media to present to the user based on the effectiveness of the first media.

18 . A medium as defined in claim 17 , wherein the instructions cause the machine to select the second media while monitoring the neuro-response data.

19 . A medium as defined in claim 17 , wherein the instructions cause the machine to dynamically adjust the first media to form the second media.

20 . A medium as defined in claim 17 , wherein the first media is selection based on user profile information comprising data indicative of previously effective media.

21 . An apparatus as defined in claim 11 , further comprising a first electrode, a second electrode, a third electrode, and a fourth electrode, wherein forces applied by the first electrode and the second electrode counterbalance forces applied by the third electrode and the fourth electrode.
