Systems and methods for generating sensory outputs (e.g., tactile, scent, and/or flavor) based on biometric/neurometric user data are provided. One exemplary method comprises receiving an incoming signal from a bio-generated data sensing device worn by a user; receiving an input signal representing sensory content experienced by the user in association with generation of the incoming signal; populating a common vocabulary with one or more values determined based on the input signal; determining a set of output values based on the incoming signal, the common vocabulary, which comprises a list of possible output values, and a parameter file, which comprises a set of instructions for applying the common vocabulary to the incoming signal to derive the set of output values; generating an output array comprising the set of output values; and providing the output array to an output delivery system configured to render the output array as a sensory output.

System and method for creating a sensory experience by merging biometric data with user-provided content

Systems and methods for preparing communication events, such as telephone calls, for prepaying customers are described. The systems and methods permit, at the beginning of a communication event, the determination of a time limit for the event based on the available balance in a prepayment account associated with the event.

Systems and methods for prerating costs for a communication event

The invention provides systems and methods that operate to provide seamless roaming to a prepaid subscriber in as many markets as possible. To that end, the systems of the invention include a location register (LR) that can determine the type, or class, of serving market with which the roaming subscriber is registering. Once the class of the serving market is identified, the LR can modify a subscriber's profile as a function of this class, and return to the serving market a profile that will allow the serving market to employ the prepaid platform that services the subscriber and thereby provide services to the roaming subscriber. In optional embodiments, the LR may also respond to location requests from the prepaid platform. The location information may be employed by the subscriber to determine a rate structure for a call, and thereby decrement the subscriber's balance as a function of, at least in part, the location of the roaming subscriber.
