Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to a system for providing relaxed working environment designed for enhancing the working environment by promoting user relaxation, improving focus, reducing stress, and supporting mental well-being, thereby enabling a more comfortable, productive, and health-conscious approach to performing work-related activities.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Providing a relaxed working environment presents several challenges including managing noise levels, ensuring ergonomic comfort, and maintaining optimal lighting and air quality. Users often experience mental fatigue, stress, and decreased focus due to prolonged sitting, monotonous tasks, and continuous digital exposure. Lack of personalized environmental controls and real-time monitoring of user’s mental state further hinders relaxation. Additionally, existing workplace setups do not offer integrated solutions for stress detection, task management, or emotional well-being support. Difficulty in synchronizing various wellness tools like breathing guides, aromatherapy, and brainwave monitoring devices within a single platform limits the effectiveness of creating a truly relaxed working atmosphere.

[0003] Traditionally, users rely on basic office furniture, stand-alone noise-canceling devices, relaxation apps, or external stress-relief gadgets to manage workplace stress and discomfort. Solutions like meditation apps, posture correction devices, ambient lighting tools, and external task management software are individually available. However, these are not interconnected and fail to provide a unified platform that adapts in real-time to the user’s mental state, behavior, or productivity level during work.

[0004] US20160260019A1 discloses a smart office desk interactive with the user, defined on the basis of an individual work desk (M) and various hardware and software elements applied to it and whose main hardware components comprise a working desktop divided into two zones, one which can be raised at an angle, motor-driven legs which raise and lower the desktop, a footrest tray and a series of sensors integrated into the desktop structure and in the legs. The smart office desk learns from the user by machine learning algorithms, and proposes physical actions in accordance with what has been learned. The table collects information from the user concerning their postures and working habits, using various physical sensors, and by their interactions with the software application displayed onscreen. It is thus a table controlled by a computer system which receives data on the user and the working environment as inputs. The system's outputs take the form of recommendations made to the user, automatic implementation of actions on them, and statistics the user can consult about their daily work.

[0023] As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” designate both the singular and the plural, unless expressly stated to designate the singular only.

[0024] The present invention relates to a system for providing relaxed working environment developed for improving workplace conditions by helping individuals stay relaxed, maintain concentration, manage stress, and support mental wellness, ultimately contributing to a more comfortable and effective working experience.

[0025] Referring to Figure 1, an isometric view of a system for providing relaxed working environment is illustrated, comprising of a desk 101 for providing working platform, an image capturing unit 102 mounted on the desk 101, a projection unit 103 attached to the desk 101, an adjustable desk canopy 104 attached to one edge of the top surface of desk 101, the adjustable desk canopy 104 comprises a sliding arrangement 105, plurality of stacked plates 106 coupled to the sliding arrangement 105, a motorized arrangement 107, plurality of light emitting diodes (LED) 108 installed on the desk canopy 104, and a fragrance diffusing unit 109 attached to the means.

[0026] The disclosed system herein comprises of a desk 101 for providing working platform to structurally support the placement and operation of various electronic units. The desk 101 includes a motion detection unit, an image capturing unit 102, an acoustic sensor, and a projection unit 103. The desk 101 serves as the base for detecting user presence, capturing real-time images, monitoring environmental sounds, and delivering projected content such as puzzles onto its surface. The motion detection unit, mounted on the desk 101, operates by continuously scanning the area in its detection range for user movement.

[0027] Upon sensing any motion, the detection unit generates an electrical signal indicating presence or activity. The motion detection unit typically utilizes infrared sensors to differentiate between static and dynamic objects in its field. The detection unit primary function is to serve as a trigger for activating downstream monitoring integrated into the desk 101., is activated

[0028] Upon receiving the signal from the motion detection unit, the image capturing unit 102 installed on the desk 101 is activated. The capturing unit 102 captures real-time images or video frames of the user seated at the desk 101. The capturing unit 102 employs visual analytics protocol to monitor facial expressions, eye movement, and posture for identifying signs of fatigue, distraction, or stress. The continuous image acquisition enables the system to perform real-time behavioral analysis. Detected fatigue or stress indicators generate corresponding output signals for initiating countermeasures like projecting puzzles or sending alerts. The imaging unit comprises of an image capturing arrangement including a set of lenses that captures multiple images of the user, and the captured images are stored within memory of the imaging unit in form of an optical data.

[0029] The imaging unit also comprises of a processor that is integrated with artificial intelligence protocols, such that the processor processes the optical data and extracts the required data from the captured images. The extracted data is further converted into digital pulses and bits and are further transmitted to the microcontroller. The microcontroller processes the received data and determines signs of fatigue, distraction, stress in the user. The acoustic sensor is integrated into the desk 101, functions by capturing sound waves from the surrounding environment.

[0030] The image capturing unit 102 captures real-time visual data to detect behavioral indicators such as gaze deviation, where the user frequently looks away from study materials or books, repetitive fidgeting movements suggesting restlessness, and inconsistent posture or reduced physical engagement with the workspace. Upon identifying these patterns, the system initiates corrective prompts or interventions to help the user regain focus and maintain productivity.

[0031] The acoustic sensor employs a microphone-based sensing element to detect the presence, frequency, and intensity of noise levels. Once a noise is sensed, the acoustic sensor converts the sound waves into an electrical signal for analysis by the processing module. The sensor helps in monitoring environmental noise conditions that may affect user concentration. When noise levels exceed predefined thresholds, the processing module can trigger appropriate countermeasures like visual alerts or adaptive acoustic signals. The acoustic sensor ensures real-time auditory monitoring to enhance the user’s working environment.

[0032] Based on user condition assessments from the image capturing and acoustic sensing units, the projection unit 103 mounted on the top surface of the desk 101, projects visual content, including puzzles, onto the desk’s work surface. This content is designed to stimulate cognitive engagement or provide relaxation stimuli. The projection unit 103 utilizes liquid crystal display projection technology to deliver high-resolution, focused projections.

[0033] The projected puzzles are selected dynamically based on the system’s real-time evaluation of user fatigue, stress, or distraction levels, fostering user alertness. A controlling unit is operably connected with the desk 101 and configured to receive a captured image of the user from the image capturing unit 102. Upon receiving the image, the controlling unit executes an authentication protocol by comparing the user’s image against pre-stored user data contained within a database to verify identity.

[0034] Upon successful authentication, the controlling unit enables operable connection between the desk 101 and a communication unit selected from a smart phone, smart watch, laptop, desktop, or combinations thereof. The controlling unit manages secure data transmission, controls desk 101 access, and activates communication features only upon verified user authentication, ensuring secure user interaction. The communication unit is configured to establish operative connection with the desk 101 upon receiving authorization from the controlling unit.

[0035] The communication unit comprises an input unit allowing the user to select between two distinct working modes: ‘focused mode’ and ‘writing journal mode’. When the ‘focused mode’ is activated via the input unit, the communication unit disables all non-emergency notifications, ensuring minimal distractions during work. The communication unit also receives user-defined goals through an input module, processes these inputs via a processing module, and generates segmented task-based outputs, aiding user productivity.

[0036] The input module is integrated within the communication unit and configured to receive the user’s intended goal in real time. Upon activation, the input module enables the user to manually or verbally input a specific goal using a graphical interface, touchscreen, or voice recognition unit provided within the communication unit. The input module collects and temporarily stores the user input data and transmits the goal-specific data packets to the processing module for further breakdown and analysis. The input module functions as the primary data acquisition interface, ensuring that the user’s goal is accurately captured for subsequent task segmentation.

[0037] The processing module is linked with the input module of the communication unit and configured to receive the user’s goal data transmitted from the input module. Upon receiving the goal, the processing module performs real-time computational operations to analyze the goal and systematically divide it into multiple small, realistic, and achievable tasks. The processing module embedded task-splitting protocols to ensure effective segmentation. It stores the subdivided tasks within the communication unit’s memory, enabling further retrieval, display, or user notifications.

[0038] The processing module ensures continuous feedback and updates the task list based on user progress or changes. An adjustable desk canopy 104 attached to one edge of the top surface of a desk 101 and operably connected to a communication unit. The desk canopy 104 comprises a sliding arrangement 105 supporting a plurality of stacked plates 106, each configured as noise-cancellation panels. The adjustable desk canopy 104 operates by extending a set of noise-cancellation plates 106 from a resting position at the edge of the desk 101 to form a dome-like structure over the working area.

[0039] A motorized arrangement 107 drives the plates 106 to extend and form a dome-like structure above the desk 101. Upon receiving an activation signal from the communication unit, the motorized arrangement 107 triggers the sliding arrangement, causing the stacked plates 106 to extend horizontally and then curve overhead, providing a sound-reduced environment. The motorized arrangement 107 functions by supplying mechanical drive to the sliding arrangement 105 for controlled movement of the stacked plates 106.

[0040] Upon receiving control signals from the communication unit or the controlling unit, the motor generates rotational or linear force transmitted through gear systems, belts, or actuators attached to the sliding tracks. The motor ensures sequential and synchronized movement of each plate, enabling smooth and accurate extension to form the dome-like canopy 104. The sliding arrangement 105 herein operates by providing a guided linear track for the plurality of stacked plates 106 to extend and retract along the horizontal axis.

[0041] Upon receiving an actuation signal from the motorized arrangement 107, the sliding arrangement 105 enables smooth longitudinal displacement of each plate, allowing sequential extension to create the dome structure over the desk 101. The sliding tracks are integrated with low-friction surfaces and guiding rails, minimizing mechanical resistance during motion. A plurality of thermal sensing units is integrated to record the user’s breathing pattern based on temperature fluctuations and transmit the recorded pattern to a controlling unit for comparison with an ideal breathing pattern pre-stored in a database.

[0042] The plurality of thermal sensing units operates by continuously detecting minute temperature fluctuations in the ambient air caused by the user's inhalation and exhalation patterns. Each sensor generates digital signals corresponding to detected thermal changes and transmits this data to the controlling unit. The controlling unit processes the received signals to derive a real-time breathing pattern profile. This recorded breathing pattern is then compared against an ideal, user-specific breathing pattern pre-stored in a database.

[0043] Furthermore, a plurality of light-emitting diodes (LED) 108 are installed on the canopy 104 and function by emitting light pulses controlled by the controlling unit to guiding the user’s breathing rhythm. The controlling unit triggers specific LEDs 108 to switch ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’ at timed intervals synchronized with the ideal breathing pattern pre-stored in the system database. The LEDs 108 intensity, color, and blinking rate are adjusted dynamically based on real-time feedback from the thermal sensing unit monitoring the user’s breathing pattern.

[0044] This visual feedback helps the user to align their breathing rate with the system-generated rhythm, promoting calmness and relaxation during prolonged work sessions. The LED 108 is a two-lead semiconductor light source also known as p-n junction which produce the lighting when constant voltage is supplied across the diode. When the voltage is supplied across the diode, the electrons recombine with the electrons hole in the diode which result in conversion of electron into photons which is another form of light.

[0045] Upon receiving an activation command from the communication unit, a fragrance diffusing unit 109 attached and connected to the communication unit functions by storing aromatic compounds within an internal reservoir and releasing controlled quantities of fragrance into the surrounding air. The user issues this command via a connected interface or preset scheduling in the controlling unit. An integrated actuator or air pump system disperses the fragrance through nozzles or vents located on the desk canopy 104.

[0046] The controlling unit regulate the diffusion duration and intensity based on user preferences or predefined settings. A blend of essential oils including Basil and Rosemary is used to promote cognitive clarity and enhance alertness, helping individuals stay focused during tasks. Lavender is incorporated to reduce anxiety levels, providing a calming effect on the mind and body. Additionally, Frankincense is utilized for its ability to encourage deep relaxation and support improved breathing patterns.

[0047] Together, these essential oils work synergistically to reduce mental fatigue, restore concentration, and create a calm and balanced environment that supports both mental well-being and productivity. A plurality of electroencephalograms (EEGs) embedded within a headphone, configured to monitor the brain activity of the user in real time. The EEGs are operably connected to a communication unit and calibrated for detecting specific brainwave patterns including alpha, beta, and theta waves. The system captures neuro-electrical signals, processes the data to analyze cognitive states such as high productivity or creative zones, and accordingly communicates task suggestions to the user through the communication unit. The plurality of electroencephalograms functions by detecting electrical signals generated by the user's brain through multiple embedded electrodes within the headphone.

[0048] These electrodes capture voltage fluctuations corresponding to brainwave frequencies such as alpha (8–13 Hz), beta (13–30 Hz), and theta (4–8 Hz) waves. The EEG signals are transmitted to the processing module where the communication unit performs real-time analysis to identify the user's cognitive state. The system continuously monitors and processes these brainwave signals to classify the user’s state as focused, relaxed, or creative. Based on the classified brain state, the system suggests specific tasks aligned with the detected cognitive zone. A chair is integrated with a vibratory unit; the vibratory unit is operably connected to a communication unit configured for receiving user commands.

[0049] Upon receipt of a user-generated command via the communication unit, the vibratory unit is automatically activated to generate controlled mechanical vibrations through the seating and backrest surfaces of the chair. The vibratory unit operates through an embedded motor with an eccentric rotating mass, which transmits oscillatory motion across the chair structure. This mechanical stimulation provides targeted massage functionality to the user for relaxation or therapeutic effect, based on the intensity and duration preset or commanded.

[0050] The chair having the vibratory unit works by converting electrical input into mechanical oscillations that transmit through the seat and backrest to the user. When a user issues a command via the communication unit, the control circuit activates the motor within the vibratory unit. This motor, fitted with an offset mass, rotates at varying speeds as per the user’s selected mode, creating targeted vibrations. These vibrations generate rhythmic pressure pulses over the user's body.

[0051] Moreover, a battery is associated with the system to supply power to electrically powered components which are employed herein. The battery is comprised of a pair of electrodes known as a cathode and an anode. A voltage is generated between the anode and cathode via oxidation/reduction and thus produces the electrical energy to provide to the system.

[0052] The present invention works best in the following manner, where the system comprises of the desk 101 provided with the motion detecting unit that detects the motion of the user and generates a signal, which is transmitted to the microcontroller integrated within the controlling unit. Upon receiving the signal, the microcontroller activates the image capturing unit 102 to capture the user’s image and further authenticates the user by matching the captured image with pre-stored data in the database. The acoustic sensor senses the surrounding noise and transmits data to the microcontroller for analysis. Once authentication is successful, the microcontroller enables connection of the desk 101 with the communication unit. The electroencephalograms embedded in the headphone monitor the brain waves of the user and transmit brain activity data to the microcontroller, which analyzes the data to suggest personalized tasks aimed at enhancing productivity or relaxation. The communication unit further receives the user’s goal via the input module and, through the processing module, segments the goal into smaller, achievable tasks. Based on the breathing pattern recorded by the thermal sensing unit, the microcontroller compares the real-time pattern with the ideal pattern stored in the database and synchronizes LEDs 108 illumination for guided breathing, while activating the fragrance diffusing unit 109 and the vibratory unit in the chair as per user’s command.
