Researchers of the Institute of Problems of Artificial Intelligence under the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine and the Institute of Occupational Medicine under the Academy of Medical Sciences have developed the helmet equipped with the intelligent system of correcting psychophysiologic condition of a man in emergency situations with biological feedback.

Specifically, the helmet is used for influencing bioactive zones of the head with the help of various physical irritants such as vibrations, infrared radiation, pressure and specially selected audiovisual effects. The action of these irritants changes psychophysiologic condition of a man, inter alia, facilitating relief of stress.

The helmet can be used independently or as a part of the intelligent system. The preliminary results of testing have proved the high efficiency of the engineering development that allows the scientists to hope for the organization of mass production of the helmets with the intelligent system of correcting psychophysiologic condition of a man. Accordingly, this could help resolve one of the pressing problems now facing Ukraine: psychological rehabilitation of the people who suffered from stress.
