Electromagnetic distance measurement device is mounted on trolley, by controller by distance measurement value be converted to voice or buzz or The flexible stimulation blind person skin of palm of hand of electronic needle-shaped array expresses the distance of the barrier of different direction to blind person.By special The bumps of wheel perceiving ground.
There is a ranging prompt tone selection switch on the left of probe cassette 5, there are 3 kinds of modes optional: voice, buzz or both are same Shi Fayin.Casting mode are as follows: barrier+orientation+distance.
1. voice: 5 directions, 5 different voice (tone color).Pronunciation design should reduce number of words to the greatest extent.
Lower probe: every about 2s pronunciation is primary when remote, and pronouncing frequency is higher when distance is closer, when short distance about every 0.5s Pronunciation is primary.Pronunciation report distance measurement value is as unit of decimetre, and such as " one " indicates 0.1 meter, and " two or three " indicate 2.3 meters.4 meters or more are not no Pronunciation.
Upper probe: tone color is different from lower probe, and adds "upper" word, such as " upper one, " upper two or three " before reporting distance measurement value number.
Ground probe: tone color and upper and lower probe are different, and report that ranging cm number is preceding and add " ground " word, as " one ", " two Three ".Not sounding when within the ground caved in 5cm, be recessed 20cm or more when issue sharp warning buzz and with sharp people Sound report, such as: " dangerous!Ground two ".
Image recognition: cover front 180 degree, within 4 meters with Types Below, and with voice broadcast: adult, child, dog, Cat, animal;Cart, trolley, tricycle, two wheeler;Road, corridor, level land, meadow, the water surface;Tree, grass, lamp stand, pillar, wall;On Road edge, lower road edge, upper one layer of step, upper multilayer steps, next layer of step, lower multilayer steps, elevator, upper escalator, assistant Help elevator;Well, hole, ditch.Other available " barriers " that cannot be identified are summarized.
The image identified should be combined with its distance when voice broadcast and be broadcasted simultaneously, such as " adult two or three ", " wall 1 ".
2. buzz: three layers of probe, 3 different tone colors, 5 directions, 5 different tones.
Probe up and down: every about 2s pronunciation is primary when remote, and pronouncing frequency is higher when distance is closer, and when minimum distance becomes Continuant.
Ground probe: sounding, 6-10cm, 11-15cm, 16-20cm do not use not unisonance respectively when within the ground caved in 5cm Adjust, be recessed 20cm or more when issue sharp warning buzz and reported with sharp voice, such as: " danger!Ground two ".
Sound feedback speed should meet normal leg speed requirement.
Booting carries out self-test every time, warning of pronouncing if finding some tip damage: " it is faulty, it please check."
Have a sound switch of seeking help, the repeatable voice that issues when opening: " hello, can help me? " default men and women is old Few a variety of tone colors are optional.When blind person needs to go across the road or when other fortuitous events, it can be used for seeking help to other people.
The common ground of electronic range measurement guide vehicle (not considering image recognition) and obstacle species and its judgment method are as follows:
Upper track edge or level-one step: when close, upper distance of probe value is constant, and lower probe distance measurement value is gradually reduced.Distance measurement value When being several centimetres, blind person forces down handlebar and lifts front-wheel, and lower probe distance measurement value is greater than 400, and ground probe reports normal distance measurement value, It knows to be edge.Front-wheel is ridden over to being pushed forward on, then lifts rear-wheel and rides over along upper, upper track edge of taking a step.If lifted Front-wheel, ground probe report distance measurement value is very big, then road is dell below the other side.Apparatus for guiding blind can sound an alarm.
Lower road edge or level-one step: when reaching edge, ground probe starts to report normal distance measurement value, it is known that is edge.It is blind People pushes away Chinese herbaceous peony, and by front-wheel sinking ground, lower probe and ground probe report normal distance measurement value, it is known that front ground safety. By rear-wheel sinking ground, distance measurement value is normal, it is known that front ground safety.It takes a step lower road edge.
Upper multi-stage stairs: when close, upper and lower distance of probe value, which synchronizes, to be gradually reduced.When distance measurement value is several centimetres, blind person's pressure Low handlebar lifts front-wheel, and ground probe reports normal distance measurement value, increases front-wheel and lifts angle, lower probe distance measurement value gradually increases Greatly, it is known that be multi-stage stairs.Front-wheel is ridden over to being pushed forward on step, then lifts rear-wheel and costs step, repeatedly, before can using Rear-wheel and probe know forward step situation, top bar of taking a step.
Lower multi-stage stairs: when reaching edge, ground probe starts to report normal distance measurement value, it is known that is step.Successively repeatedly It by front and back wheel sinking, takes a step to get out of a predicament or an embarrassing situation, can know forward step situation with front and back wheel and probe.
Upper abrupt slope: when close, probe is quoted different but digital close distance measurement value and is gradually reduced simultaneously up and down.It goes up a slope When, probe detection numerical value is identical as level land.
Lower abrupt slope: when arriving slope edge, ground probe reports normal distance measurement value.When descending, probe detection numerical value and level land phase Together.
Small protrusion: brick, stone within height 5cm etc., probe may not be able to be found out, and front-wheel or rear-wheel roll protrusion When be elevated, blind person by the vibration of vehicle body and the hypsokinesis of handle learn protrusion Position Approximate, avoided when taking a step protrusion or it is small The heart visits step and moves ahead.Protrusion within height 2cm will not generate big influence to step.
Small recess: the pitting within depth 5cm, probe may not be able to be found out, and front-wheel or rear-wheel can settle, and blind person passes through The vibration of vehicle body and leaning forward for handle learn the Position Approximate of recess, and recess is avoided when taking a step or careful step of visiting moves ahead.
The well of uncovered: lower probe distance measurement value is more than that 20cm can issue sharp warning buzz and with sharp people suddenly Sound report, such as: " dangerous!Ground 102 ".Blind person halts, and listens alerted orientation, then rotates left and right vehicle body, then listens lower probe Distance measurement value, it is known that home.It drops back two steps, turns to security standpoint and pass through.
Hollow place or irrigation canals and ditches: ground distance of probe value is more than that 20cm can issue sharp warning buzz and with sharply suddenly Voice report, such as: " dangerous!Ground 102 ".Blind person halts, and listens alerted orientation, then rotates left and right vehicle body, then under listening The distance measurement value of probe, if the distance measurement value of front 180 degree or so all reported hazards, left and right turn 90 degrees walking and far from hollow place or The edge of irrigation canals and ditches.
Be parallel to the edge walking of recess: such as road edge, step, irrigation canals and ditches edge, the ground of side, which is popped one's head in, can quote survey Away from value, and when distance measurement value is greater than 20, will call the police, and blind person turns to other side walking in time, far from edge.
Pavement needs to turn to crossing: when blind person is gone to crossing on pavement, edge is found out on ground, and vehicle is turned to 90 degree, finding out front is level land, continues to walk along pavement.
Go across the road: blind person not cross the road of vehicle at non-crossing.It must be turned on sound of seeking help when crossing will go across the road Switch: " hello, can help me? " other people are solicited to assist going across the road.
Pavement is occupied or the road of row is mixed without pavement, people's vehicle: roadside is road edge, wall, greening-tree, is parked in roadside Vehicle etc., keeping probe distance measurement value under right side is 10cm or so, can keep walking along roadside straight line, avoids going to experience among road It is dangerous.If being flat meadow or soil on the outside of road, blind person can know its landforms by wheel 1 and feel, and adjustment angle is walked Return road.
Interval flagstone path on landscape meadow: since wheel 1 is relatively large in diameter, majority can pass through, if front-wheel is stumbled, Front-wheel is lifted, cart moves ahead.
Meadow: cart resistance increases, and is meadow known to foot.
The soil of out-of-flatness: vehicle body can jolt, and somewhere protrusion may stumble front-wheel, and it is feasible to lift front-wheel.
Muddy ground, sand ground, stone: resistance will increase.Some ground may not be able to cart move ahead, should detour.
