Abstract
One aspect of this disclosure relates to presenting a user with a stimulus to elicit user interaction with a task on a computing platform associated with the user. The stimulus may be presented on the computing platform when a set of triggering criteria is satisfied. The stimulus includes a task for the user to complete. The stimulus prompts the user to complete the task. The task includes a set of task criteria for completion. Responsive to the user satisfying the set of task criteria, the user is presented with one or more options to modify the stimulus. The user may be continuously prompted by the stimulus until the set of task criteria is satisfied.
Background
FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE(1) The present disclosure relates to presenting a user with a stimulus through a simulated physical space displayed on a computing platform to elicit user interaction.BACKGROUND(2) Alarm clocks, including digital alarms clocks presented through a mobile phone, are designed to ring at a set time and often have a function of snooze. To stop or snooze the alarm, a user may tap on a snooze or stop button on the phone's screen, or utilize physical buttons. However, in some instances when the alarm goes off, the user, being awakened by the alarm clock abruptly and being extremely sleepy, might unconsciously turn off the alarm and thus sleep past the time they are supposed to get up.SUMMARY(3) One aspect of this disclosure relates to presenting a user with a stimulus to elicit user interaction with a task on a computing platform associated with the user. The stimulus may be presented on the computing platform at a predetermined time. The stimulus may comprise of visual content and/or audible notifications. The visual content may include a depiction of a simulated physical space, one or more virtual objects, and/or other virtual content. The virtual objects may be positioned throughout a topography of the simulated physical space. The task may be presented on the simulated physical space via the virtual objects. The task may include a set of task criteria for completion, and/or other information. The audible notifications may notify the user of the task presen
Claims
1. A system configured to elicit user interaction with a stimulus through a simulated physical space on a computing platform, the system comprising: one or more physical processors configured by machine-readable instructions to: obtain trigger information, the trigger information specifying a trigger time for triggering a stimulus, the stimulus including a presentation of the simulated physical space and an audible notification; at an occurrence of the trigger time, initiate the stimulus by: effectuating presentation of views of the simulated physical space on a display of a computing platform associated with a user, the simulated physical space includes a virtual object presented within a topography of the simulated physical space, the virtual object presents a task to the user, the presentation of the task to the user includes a prompt for the user to interact with the virtual object, the task having a set of criteria for completing the task; and effectuating presentation of the audible notification via an audio output device of the computing platform, the audible notification prompting the user to interact with the virtual object; obtaining user input information, the user input information including at least one of user entry or selection of the virtual object within the virtual space, the at least one of the user entry or the selection conveying an attempt to satisfy the set of criteria for completing the task; responsive to the at least one of the user entry or the selection not satisfying the set of criteria, continue the stimulus by continuing the presentation of the audible notification and the presentation of the views of the simulated physical space including the virtual object; and, responsive to the at least one of the user entry or the selection satisfying the set of criteria, end the stimulus by ceasing one or both of the presentation of the audible notification or the presentation of the views of the simulated physical space including the virtual object, wherein the presentation of the views of the simulated physical space including the virtual object continues over time, and a level of complexity of the set of criteria for completing the task increases with the time until the at least one of the user entry and/or the selection is obtained or the set of criteria is satisfied.
10. A method to elicit user interaction with a stimulus through a simulated physical space on a computing platform, the method comprising: obtaining trigger information, the trigger information specifying a trigger time for triggering a stimulus, the stimulus including a presentation of the simulated physical space and an audible notification; and at an occurrence of the trigger time, initiating the stimulus by: effectuating presentation of views of the simulated physical space on a display of a computing platform associated with a user, the simulated physical space includes a virtual object presented within a topography of the simulated physical space, the virtual object presents a task to the user, the presentation of the task to the user includes a prompt for the user to interact with the virtual object, the task having a set of criteria for completing the task; and effectuating presentation of the audible notification via an audio output device of the computing platform, the audible notification prompting the user to interact with the virtual object; obtaining user input information, the user input information including at least one of user entry or selection of the virtual object within the virtual space, the at least one of the user entry or the selection conveying an attempt to satisfy the set of criteria for completing the task; responsive to the at least one of the user entry or the selection not satisfying the set of criteria, continuing the presentation of the audible notification and the presentation of the views of the simulated physical space including the virtual object; and, responsive to the at least one of the user entry or the selection satisfying the set of criteria, ending the stimulus by ceasing one or both of the presentation of the audible notification or the presentation of the views of the simulated physical space including the virtual object, wherein the presentation of the views of the simulated physical space including the virtual object continues over time, and a level of complexity of the set of criteria for completing the task increases with the time until the user entry and/or selection is obtained or the set of criteria is satisfied.
