Description
Mémoire descriptif La présente invention se rapporte à un casque qui vibre au niveau de la tête en harmonie avec la bande sonore écoutée par l'individu qui le porte. Dans le domaine du jeu vidéo et de l'écoute de musique.
Il est d'usage courant d'utiliser certains accessoires de jeu vidéo qui émettent des vibrations afin d'augmenter la sensation du joueur. Les moyens utilisés sont, des manettes de jeu et certains écouteurs qui déclenchent (vibreur intégré) une vibration activée conséquemment à l'émission de basses fréquences sonores, comme des explosions ou quelques autres bruits dans les jeux. Ces appareils ne permettent pas une grande augmentation de la sensation. Les moyens utilisés ne couvrent qu'une très petite partie de la bande sonore et ne couvrent pas une des principales parties réceptrices du corps, la tête.
J'ai découvert que ce manque de sensation pouvait être supprimé car l'appareil permettant de faire vibrer, se place sur la tête et vibre avec toute la bande sonore en harmonie avec les sons diffusés. Pour synchroniser les vibrations et le son sur le casque, la bande sonore est divisée en plusieurs sous-bandes auxquelles sont attribuées une sous-fréquence, de très basse à très aigue. Chacune de ces sous-bandes sonores est reliée à un élément vibrant qui correspond (par son degré de vibration) à la bande en question.
Le nombre des sous-bandes auquel est attribué une fréquence est illimité.
Des éléments vibrants sont disposés à un ou plusieurs endroits sur l'appareil.
Les vibrations entrent en contact avec la partie extérieure de la tête. Avec ce casque, il est maintenant possible de vivre une expérience sensorielle entière au niveau de la tête.
Les vibrations ressenties synchronisées avec les son procurent une sensation mentale d'intégration au jeu ou à la musique chez l'humain .
Relativement aux dessins qui illustrent la réalisation de l'appareil.

La figure 3: Représente un des multiples schémas du fonctionnement de l'appareil avec 6 éléments vibrants sur une possibilité de nombre infini d'éléments vibrants.
L'appareil illustré figure 1 et 2 représente une des nombreuses formes et structures possibles de l'appareil servant de support aux éléments vibrants 5 pouvant être disposés à
différents endroits sur la structure 6 qui elle, se place au niveau de la tête.
La figure 3 représente un des multiples schémas possibles du fonctionnement de l'appareil.
Le signal audio 1 est transmis au séparateur de sous-bande 2 qui divise le signal en nombre de sous-bande voulu 3 à laquelle est assignée une fréquence, de très basse (L) à
très aigue (H2). La (ou les) fréquence diffusée dans la sous-bande 3 est amplifiée 4 en fonction de transmettre l'énergie nécessaire au fonctionnement de l'élément vibrant 5.
L'élément vibrant 5 peut être mis en relation avec la fréquence de par son degré de vibration. Descriptive memory The present invention relates to a helmet that vibrates at the level of the head in harmony with the soundtrack listened to by the individual who wears it. In the field of video game and listening to music.
It is common practice to use certain video game accessories that issue vibrations to increase the player's feeling. The means used are, joysticks and some earphones that trigger (vibrator integrated) a vibration activated consequently, the emission of low frequencies, such as explosions or some other noises in the games. These devices do not allow a big increased sensation. The means used cover only a very small part of the soundtrack and do not cover one of the main receiving parts of the body, the head.
I discovered that this lack of sensation could be removed because the device allowing to vibrate, is placed on the head and vibrates with all the soundtrack in harmony with the sounds broadcast. To synchronize the vibrations and sound on the headphones, soundtrack is divided into several sub-bands to which a subset frequency, very low to very high. Each of these sound subbands is connected to a element vibrating which corresponds (by its degree of vibration) to the band in question.
The number of sub-bands to which a frequency is assigned is unlimited.
Vibrating elements are arranged at one or more places on the apparatus.
The vibrations come in contact with the outer part of the head. With this headphones he is now possible to live an entire sensory experience at the level of the head.
Vibrations felt synchronized with sound provide a sensation mental integration into the game or music in humans.
With regard to the drawings which illustrate the realization of the apparatus.

Figure 2: Represents a front view of the device (headset) selected from an infinity of forms and possibilities.
Figure 3: Represents one of the multiple patterns of the operation of the device with 6 items vibrating on a possibility of infinite number of vibrating elements.
The apparatus illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 represents one of the many forms and structures possible devices supporting the vibrating elements 5 be willing to different places on the structure 6 which it is at the level of the head.
FIG. 3 represents one of the multiple possible diagrams of the operation of the device.
The audio signal 1 is transmitted to the subband splitter 2 which divides the signal in number of subband wanted 3 to which is assigned a frequency, of very low (L) to very acute (H2). The (or) frequency broadcast in sub-band 3 is amplified 4 in function of transmitting the energy necessary for the operation of the element vibrating 5.
The vibrating element 5 can be related to the frequency by its degree of vibration.
