A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11922731B1) outlines a computer-implemented method that involves inducing both voluntary and involuntary actions in a user through cues presented on a client device. The method utilizes sensor data, such as eye movements captured by a camera, to determine if the user's reactions meet specific criteria, including confidence thresholds for involuntary actions. If the user fails to perform the desired involuntary action, a second cue is generated to induce the voluntary action. The system also includes instructions for selecting display locations for cues and analyzing multiple reactions to determine if the user is live based on their responses.

Furthermore, the patent describes a system that implements the method, featuring a processor and memory storing instructions for generating cues, analyzing user reactions, and determining live status based on the user's responses. The system is designed to detect involuntary eye movements and other actions, such as user input or device manipulation, to assess user engagement and responsiveness. Additionally, the system includes instructions for presenting cues at specific display locations on the client device to prompt user reactions effectively. Overall, the patented method and system aim to enhance user interaction by dynamically adjusting cues based on user responses and engagement levels, ultimately improving the overall user experience.
