Definitions

  • the comparatively low dissolving power of the skin is increased by the fact that the control voltages for the vibration emitters are formed only from the spectral focus areas of each phase of the sound event - in the case of speech thus of each sound. Highlighting the characteristic spectral features increases the recognizability of a sound.
  • a further increase in the identifiability is achieved by a variable-location action of the vibration generator.
  • the vibration amplitude and frequency can be further distinctive differentiations to reach.
  • certain spectral ranges can be assigned to specific vibration transmitters;
  • the number of each effective vibration generator and thus the range of action can be varied and finally the control of several vibration generator with respect to the duration of the sound faster serial sequence into consideration, creating the feeling arises as if a vibration transmitter on the skin.
  • the center of gravity spectral regions of the vowels i, e, a, o, u represent voltages in the order mentioned, in each case symmetrically to the right and left to the center vibration sensor from the inside to the outside. Vowels are thus noticeable according to their timbre from light to dark from the inside to the outside in a narrow base width.
  • Short-term broadband beats (b, p, g, d, q) are felt across the entire base width available.
  • the vibration sensors are driven by two separate control signals, namely the middle control voltage representing the high spectral range, the outer control voltage representing the lower spectral range.
  • control voltages are supplied to all vibration transmitters in rapid serial sequence for a short time.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the invention provides to examine the representative signals of the control voltages for the vibration or other donors on the presence of certain predetermined pattern and make their determination a certain serial control of the vibration generator. Background of this solution variant is the transmission of

  • other stimulants alone can impart emotional or sensory states to or into the skin.
  • This also includes implants that are sunk into the skin, such as acupuncture needles, which can be changed in position via electromagnetic impulses and thus cause an irritant.

  • the output signals of the filter circuits are once the rectifier circuits 4 for detecting the amplitudes fed and fed in parallel ten summing 6, whose output signals via power amplifier 7, the vibration generator 8 control. This arrangement allows each vibration generator to be driven with a signal of any spectral composition possible here.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé, un dispositif et des utilisations permettant la détection sensible d'événements acoustiques, en vue d'obtenir des états de sensation ou d'impression de la peau vivante. L'événement acoustique est décomposé en plusieurs zones spectrales et, à partir des signaux représentant ces zones, on détermine des tensions de commande pour une sélection déterminée d'émetteurs prédéterminés qui agissent sur et/ou dans la peau vivante. La sélection et l'ordonnancement par rapport aux tensions de commande sont dépendants d'une analyse de signaux faite au moyen des signaux représentant les zones spectrales. L'application concerne aussi bien la perception de musique, que la détection de signaux sur des personnes malentendantes.
