Method and system for direct communication to human senses Patent 2013059833 . A method for communicating sensory information to an individual, said method comprising:using directing energy aimed at the targeted individuals's cranium to produce a cognitive effect; and reception of synaptic signaling to encode synaptic signal information . The method of Claim 1, wherein the acoustic energy is directed at a target region in the brain to cause a selected cognitive effect. 3. The method of Claim 2, wherein the target region and cognitive effect are selected from the group consisting of: Cognitive effect Target region Perception of touch Somatosensory cortex Auditory perception Auditory cortex Vestibular perception Temporal-parietal junction, central sulcus, intraparietal sulcus, and insular cortex Visual perception Primary and extrastriate visual cortex Olfactory perception Piriform cortex Language comprehension Wernicke's area Language production Broca's area Long-term memory Hippocampus and parahippocampal formation (and connected portions of cortex, e.g. entorhinal cortex and perirhinal cortex) Modulation of pain processing Rostral anterior cingulate cortex Emotion Limbic system (e.g. amygdala) Motor control and movements Primary and supplementary motor cortex; thalamus; cerebellum; basal ganglia; substantia nigra Attention Gamma rhythms Relaxation Alpha rhythms Empathy, social interaction Brainstem nuclei, hypothalamus, amygdala, anterior cingulated cortex, prefrontal cortex, ventromedial prefrontal cortex, and other brain regions involved in oxytocin and arginine vasopressin function Mirth and laughter Inferior temporal gyrus, cingulated gyrus, Cognitive effect Target region subthalamic nucleus Fear Amygdala, insular cortex, internal capsule, nucleus accumbens, and anterior temporal gyrus Physiological arousal, sleep state Various brainstem nuclei Modulation of risk taking Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex ......
