Method and System for Measuring, Predicting and Optimizing Human Alertness

Abstract

A system and method using a biomathetical model in conjunction with an optimization method for an individual's alertness impairment at a future time based on a known sleep schedule by adjusting the intake of caffeine over that schedule. In a further embodiment, placing constraints on the frequency, the dose amount, and/or total amount consumed over the course of the future schedule. In a further embodiment, optimizing the sleep schedule (prior to or independent of caffeine optimization) to decrease the individual's alertness impairment at the future time(s). In a further embodiment, adjust both the sleep schedule and caffeine intake to decrease the individual's alertness impairment at the future time(s). In at least one embodiment, the system including a mobile based system and/or a networked computer-based system.
