Abstract

Afin de mettre et de maintenir des êtres humains dans un état de détente tandis qu'un programme d'enseignement leur est transmis, des signaux multiplex droit et gauche (MR et ML) enregistrés sur un support de son sont obtenus et amplifiés dans un dispositif de reproduction (60). Des signaux audio et des signaux de commande à fréquence modulée sont obtenus à partir de ces signaux multiplex amplifiés au moyen d'étages filtres (66, 68, 70, 72) correspondants. Les signaux de commande à fréquence modulée sont démodulés, amplifiés puis utilisés pour commander une source lumineuse (20; 22), alors que les signaux audio sont rendus acoustiquement perceptibles. Les signaux lumineux et une partie des signaux audio produisent un état de détente chez les êtres humains, tandis que l'autre partie des signaux audio sert à transmettre l'information. Etant donné que les signaux de commande sont enregistrés sur le porteur de son pendant l'enregistrement du programme d'enseignement, on peut obtenir une coordination, c'est-à-dire la mise en accord et l'adaptation des signaux de commandes en fonction du contenu d'information de la matière à enseigner dispensé à un moment précis.
