Detailed Description
The present invention is described below with reference to specific examples. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that these examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention in any way.
A vibration tactile stimulation device takes wearing on the neck as an example, and as shown in figure 1, the vibration tactile stimulation device comprises an annular collar 1, a plurality of placing bags 2, four vibration motors 3 and a control energy supply module 4, wherein the annular collar 1 is made of elastic materials and can be worn and attached to the neck of a human body; a plurality of placing bags 2 are distributed on the annular necklace 1 every 1 cm; the four vibration motors 3 are placed in the placing bag 2 and are uniformly distributed among the four vibration motors, the vibration motors 3 adopt coin motors capable of providing vibration stimulation, and each vibration motor 3 is provided with an independent pin and is respectively connected with the control energy supply module 4; the energy supply module 4 is controlled to supply energy to each vibration motor 3 and modulate the vibration intensity of the vibration motor; the control energy supply module 4 can generate a pulse width modulation drive signal, and the pulse width modulation drive signal modulates the vibration intensity of the vibration motor 3 through a special amplifier circuit. Wherein, the energy supply control module 3 controls the four vibration motors 3 to work according to the vibration stimulation instruction.
The working principle of the embodiment is as follows:
(1) Selecting external information to be transmitted, and transmitting the information to the vibrotactile stimulation device;
(2) Finding out a corresponding vibration stimulation instruction according to a pre-coded vibration tactile letter code table from the received information on the vibration tactile stimulation device;
(3) The control energy supply module 4 receives the vibration stimulation instruction and starts the corresponding vibration motor 3 according to the coding rule;
(4) The vibration motor 3 vibrates according to the vibration stimulation instruction to transfer the touch of the skin of the human body.
As shown in fig. 2 and fig. 3, for example, the vibration stimulation instruction uses 26 english letters as an example, and the vibration stimulation instruction is activated by the following activities:
carrying out graphical processing on external information to be transmitted to generate a graphical instruction, wherein the graphical instruction comprises four sites and two line segments with directional arrows and connecting the two sites;
coding the graphic command to generate at least one group of vibration stimulation commands combined with space and time; wherein the encoding of the graphics instructions comprises: performing digital marking on a plurality of sites in the graphic instruction; taking the end without the arrow in each line segment as a starting point and the end with the arrow as an end point, and sequentially reading the numerical sequences of all the sites according to the sequence from the starting point to the end point; sequencing and reading the two line segments according to the sequence of the numerical mark sequence of the respective starting points from small to large;
the information, the graphic commands and the vibration stimulation commands are in one-to-one correspondence, and a vibration touch letter coding table shown in figure 3 is constructed together.
Specifically, taking "Z" as an example, the circle represents an annular collar, and the numerical indices 1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively represent four vibration motors, and correspond to positions on the annular collar. The thick arrow indicates that the first pair of vibration stimuli point from 2 to 4, i.e. the vibration motor 2 vibrates first for a period of time and then the vibration motor 4 vibrates; the thin arrow indicates that the second pair of vibration stimuli points to 3 from 4, and similarly, the vibration motor 4 vibrates firstly for a period of time and then vibrates the motor 3; the vibration stimulation command is generated and is indicated as 2443. I.e., the letter "Z" is encoded as a spatial and temporal vibrotactile stimulation paradigm "2443".
When the vibration touch stimulation device knows 2443, the vibration motor 2, the vibration motor 4 and the vibration motor 3 are controlled to work in sequence according to the coding rule to generate vibration stimulation.
