Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a device which enables a visually-impaired person to realize surrounding conditions. <P>SOLUTION: An ultrasonic wave exploratory device 8 and a haptic device 1 are combined. The ultrasonic wave 10 is transmitted from the ultrasonic wave transmitting and receiving device 9, and a reverberated ultrasonic wave 10 from an object 11 is received with the ultrasonic wave transmitting and receiving device 9, converted to an electric signal with the ultrasonic wave exploratory device 8, transmitted to the haptic device 1 to convert into haptic stimuli, transmitted to the tactile sense of human skin 3 and notify a user of the presence of the object 11. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT

Description

福祉機器Welfare equipment

従来の杖だけでは周りの様子がわかりませんでした。I couldn't figure out what was going on with just a conventional cane.

目の見えない人が周りの様子がわかるようにすること。Make sure people who are blind can see what's around them.

超音波探査装置８と触覚装置１を合体させます。
超音波発信受信装置９から超音波１０を発信し、物体１１に当て反射してきた超音波１０を超音波発信受信装置９で受信して、超音波探査装置８で電気信号に変換して、触覚装置１へ送信して触覚装置１で触覚力に変え、人の皮膚３の触覚に伝えて物体１１の存在を知らせます。Combine the ultrasonic probe 8 and the haptic device 1.
An ultrasonic wave 10 is transmitted from the ultrasonic wave transmission / reception device 9, the ultrasonic wave 10 reflected by the object 11 is received by the ultrasonic wave transmission / reception device 9, converted into an electric signal by the ultrasonic wave surveying device 8, and touched. It is transmitted to the device 1 and changed to tactile force by the tactile device 1, and is notified to the tactile sense of the human skin 3 to notify the presence of the object 11.

目の見えない人が周りの様子がわかるようにします。Make sure people who are blind can see what ’s around them.
