Description

本発明は、主として視覚障害者の使用に特化した、簡易的なボイスメモに関する。The present invention relates to a simple voice memo specialized mainly for use by visually impaired persons.

市販のボイスレコーダーは、所定のデータ保存容量を有し、その容量内であれば、何件でも録音が可能であり、また、連続で長時間録音する事も可能で、非常に利便性が高い。録音する際は、録音者自身が特定の番号や記号で題名を付けてデータを保存し、再生する際は、表示画面を見て再生したい題名の録音を検索し、再生を行う。
しかし、全ての操作は、表示画面を見て行う構造の為、視覚障害者には、一切操作ができない。
A commercially available voice recorder has a predetermined data storage capacity, and can record any number of files within that capacity, and can record continuously for a long time, which is very convenient. . When recording, the recorder himself / herself assigns a title with a specific number or symbol and saves the data. When playing back, the recording screen is searched for the recording of the title to be played back and played back.
However, since all operations are performed by looking at the display screen, the visually impaired cannot perform any operations.

インターネット上の市販品情報:株式会社バンダイ ママレード・ボーイ ボイスメモ  Commercially available product information on the Internet: Bandai Co., Ltd. Marmalade Boy Voice Memo インターネット上の市販品情報:有限会社クネット MK−143B  Commercially available product information on the Internet: Knett MK-143B

現在、多数のボイスレコーダーが市販されており、インターネットで検索すれば、多数の商品が簡単に発見できる。しかし、それらは全て、健常者向けの商品であり、表示画面を目視で確認して操作する構造の為、視覚障害者は使用する事ができない。
さらに最近は、スマートフォン用の専用アプリも多数存在し、スマートフォンをボイスレコーダーと兼用とする事も可能であるが、やはりモニター画面を目視できなければ一切操作ができない。
また、健常者であれば、ちょっとした備忘録(防備録とも言う)として、『○日に、歯医者を予約』とか、『帰りに○○を買って帰る』などのメモを手帳や日記に記録し、後でページをめくれば簡単に思い出す事ができるが、視覚障害者には、この簡単なメモを取る事ができない。従って、生活する上で不便を強いられている視覚障害者こそ、操作が簡単な『音声メモ』を求めている。
Many voice recorders are currently on the market, and you can easily find many products by searching the Internet. However, they are all products for healthy people and cannot be used by visually impaired people because of the structure in which the display screen is visually checked and operated.
Recently, there are a number of dedicated apps for smartphones, and it is possible to use a smartphone as a voice recorder as well. However, if the monitor screen cannot be seen, it cannot be operated at all.
Also, if you are a healthy person, record a note such as “Reserve a dentist on the XX day” or “Buy home on the way home” in your notebook or diary as a short memorandum. If you turn the page later, you can easily remember it, but visually impaired people can't take these simple notes. Therefore, visually handicapped people who are inconvenienced in living demand a “voice memo” that is easy to operate.

市販されている[非特許文献1]は、確かに視覚障害者でも触覚のみで操作は可能だが、録音が3件しかできず、実用性に欠け、玩具の領域を出ない。また、ボタンが3個なので、触っただけで、左・中・右の判別ができるが、ボタンが増えた場合は操作ができず、実用性が皆無である。
市販されている[非特許文献2]は、8件の録音と再生が独立して実施可能な回路であるが、これも、目視によってボタンを選択する構造であり、視覚障害者には操作ができない。
即ち、視覚障害者が求めている、触角だけで操作可能な簡単なボイスメモは存在していない。
[Non-patent document 1] on the market can be operated only by a tactile sensation even by a visually handicapped person, but only three recordings can be made, it is not practical, and does not leave the toy area. Also, since there are three buttons, left, middle and right can be discriminated just by touching them, but if the number of buttons increases, operation is impossible and there is no practicality.
[Non-Patent Document 2], which is commercially available, is a circuit that can perform recording and playback of eight cases independently. This is also a structure in which a button is selected by visual observation, and an operation is difficult for a visually impaired person. Can not.
That is, there is no simple voice memo that can be operated with only the antenna, which is required by the visually impaired.

そこで、高性能な長時間録音機能や、高音質の再生機能などは排除し、音声でメモを取る機能だけに特化した上、視覚障害者が、触覚だけで簡単に操作ができるボイスレコーが求められている。また、視覚障害者用に特化すれば、モニター画面を使った操作に不慣れな高齢者にも使い易くなり、極めて利便性が高くなる。
具体的には、以下の『問題点』や『要求』を、全て解決する事が、本発明の課題である。
1、市販のボイスレコーダーでは、視覚障害者がモニター画面を視認できない。
2、触覚だけで操作が可能な、録音・再生装置が存在しない。
3、据え置き型の大型装置では利便性が悪い。身に付けて持ち歩けなければならない。
4、間違った音を出して焦った時にも、目視に頼らず、瞬時に再生を止めたい。
5、少なくとも、10件程度の音声メモを記録したい。
6、記録した音声の中から、再生したい音声メモを瞬時に探し出したい。具体的には、例えば音声メモが10件記録されている場合、触覚だけで瞬時に7番目を探し出せる機能が必要。
7、操作中、手が滑って落としてしまった場合でも、視覚障害者が簡単に探せる様にしたい。
8、緊急時に、周囲の人に助けを求められる機能が欲しい。
9、手帳にメモを書く、消して上書きする、別のページに次のメモを書く、ページをめくって必要なメモを探し出す、手帳をポケットに入れて持ち歩く・・・など、健常者が極普通にできる作業を、視覚障害者にできる様にしたい。
10.ちょっとした計算を行いたくても、視覚障害者は電卓の計算結果を読み取れない。
11、歩行中につまづいて転倒した際、視覚障害者は自分が進むべき方向を認識できなくなる場合があり、横断歩道、踏み切り、段差のある道路などで方角を誤まると、極めて危険。
Therefore, high-performance long-time recording function and high-quality sound playback function are excluded, specializing only in the function of taking notes with voice, and voice recording that can be easily operated by tactile sense for visually impaired people is required. It has been. If it is specialized for the visually impaired, it will be easy to use even for elderly people who are unfamiliar with the operation using the monitor screen.
Specifically, it is an object of the present invention to solve all of the following “problems” and “requests”.
1. With a commercially available voice recorder, visually impaired persons cannot see the monitor screen.
2. There is no recording / playback device that can be operated only by touch.
3. The convenience of a stationary large-sized device is poor. You must carry it with you.
4. I want to stop playback instantly, without relying on visual inspection, even when I get impatient with a wrong sound.
5. I want to record at least 10 voice memos.
6. I want to instantly find the voice memo I want to play from the recorded voice. Specifically, for example, when 10 voice memos are recorded, a function that can instantly find the seventh by touch is necessary.
7. We want to make it easy for visually impaired people to find them even if their hands slipped during operation.
8. I want a function that allows people around me to ask for help in an emergency.
9. Write a note in the notebook, erase and overwrite, write the next note on another page, find the necessary note by turning the page, carry the notebook in your pocket, etc. I want to make it possible for visually impaired people to do work that can be done.
10. Even if you want to do a little calculation, visually impaired people cannot read the calculation result of the calculator.
11. If you fall over while walking, visually impaired people may not be able to recognize the direction they should go, and it is extremely dangerous if the direction is wrong on a crosswalk, railroad crossing, stepped road, etc.

課題を解決する為には、本発明の請求項1から請求項2の、いずれかに記載された構成を1つ、又は複数選択して採用する。その内容は、概略、以下の構成を指す。

本発明の、請求項1から請求項2のいずれかに記載された構成を、複数組合せて採用すれば、視覚障害者でも簡単に『メモを取る』作業が可能となり、必要なメモを瞬時に探しだして、音によってメモ内容を確認する事ができる。
また、誤操作によって焦ってしまい、再生を止めるスイッチがどこにあるか判らなくなっった時も、本体を振る動作だけで瞬時に止める事ができるので、視覚障害者にとって、極めて安心である。
さらに、視覚障害者用に特化し、所定の件数の音声メモを録音・再生する機能だけに絞った為、画面を見ながらの操作に不慣れな高齢者でも、簡単に使用する事が可能となり、利便性が高い。
緊急時にサイレンを鳴らしたり、『助けて下さい』などの緊急音声を最大音量で再生する機能も設けられている為、視覚障害者や高齢者が、普段から身に付けておく装置として、有効活用できる。
By adopting a combination of a plurality of configurations according to any one of claims 1 to 2 according to the present invention, a visually impaired person can easily “take a note” and instantly obtain a necessary note. You can search and check the memo contents by sound.
In addition, even if it becomes impatient due to an erroneous operation and it becomes impossible to know where the switch to stop playback is, it can be stopped instantly by simply shaking the main body, so it is extremely safe for visually impaired people.
Furthermore, because it is specially designed for visually impaired people and focused on the function to record and play back a predetermined number of voice memos, even elderly people who are not familiar with operations while looking at the screen can easily use it. Convenience is high.
In the event of an emergency, it also has a function to play sirens and play emergency sounds such as “Please Help” at maximum volume, so it can be used effectively as a device that visually impaired and elderly people can wear everyday. it can.

本発明のボイスレコーダー本体の、正面図を表す模式図である。  It is a schematic diagram showing the front view of the voice recorder main body of this invention. 本発明の録音・再生装置の、回路図を表す。  The circuit diagram of the recording / reproducing apparatus of this invention is represented.

本発明を実施し、課題を解決する為の形態や構成は、請求項1から請求項2に詳述された通りであり、そのいずれか、又はいずれか複数を選択すれば良い。その構成の一例を、図を使用して説明する。Embodiments and configurations for implementing the present invention and solving the problems are as described in detail in claims 1 to 2, and any one or a plurality of them may be selected. An example of the configuration will be described with reference to the drawings.

図1は、本発明品を製品化した場合の一例を示す。本体1には、左右比対象に指を入れて保持する為の取っ手2と取っ手8が設けられている為、視覚障害者が瞬時に本体の向きを把握できる。また、メインスイッチ3は、取っ手2の内側に装置されているので、何かにぶつかって不用意に操作される事が無く、また、指が触れる取っ手の内側なので、視覚障害者でも非常に操作し易い。FIG. 1 shows an example when the product of the present invention is commercialized. Since the main body 1 is provided with the handle 2 and the handle 8 for putting a finger on the right / left ratio target and holding it, a visually handicapped person can instantly grasp the direction of the main body. In addition, the main switch 3 is installed inside the handle 2 so that it will not be accidentally operated by hitting anything, and it is also inside the handle where the finger touches. Easy to do.

音声を録音する際は、録音・再生切り替えスイッチ4を録音側にスライドさせ、任意の指定ボタン5を押しながらマイク6に向かって話しをする。再生する際は、切り替えスイッチ4を再生側にスライドさせ、所定の指定ボタン5を押すと、スピーカー7から録音された音声などが流れる。When recording a voice, the recording / playback change-over switch 4 is slid to the recording side, and talking to the microphone 6 while pressing an arbitrary designation button 5. During playback, when the changeover switch 4 is slid to the playback side and a predetermined designation button 5 is pressed, sound recorded from the speaker 7 flows.

図1の構成では、指定スイッチが12個設定され、12種類の音声等を録音・再生できるが、ボタン横一列に配列されていた場合、健常者であれば数字を見て、瞬時に希望の番号ボタンを押す事ができるが、視覚障害者には、その作業が不可能となる。
そこで図1の様に、指定スイッチ5のボタンの大きさを不均一とし、3個づつ規則的に並べれば、視覚障害者でも触覚によって瞬時に希望するボタンを探す事ができる。例えば『8番』のボタンを操作したい場合は、大きなボタンの右から2番目を指で探し、その右下が『8番』なので、瞬時に、簡単かつ確実に、希望の番号のボタンを見つける事ができる。
In the configuration of FIG. 1, twelve designated switches are set and 12 kinds of voices can be recorded / reproduced. However, when arranged in a horizontal row of buttons, a healthy person looks at the numbers and instantly selects the desired number. You can press the number buttons, but it will be impossible for the visually impaired.
Therefore, as shown in FIG. 1, if the size of the buttons of the designation switch 5 is not uniform and arranged three by three regularly, a visually handicapped person can find a desired button instantaneously by touch. For example, if you want to operate the “No. 8” button, use your finger to find the second button from the right of the large button, and the lower right is “No. 8”, so you can find the button with the desired number instantly and easily. I can do things.

また、取っ手8は、緊急スイッチを兼ねており、緊急時に強く引っ張ると、サイレンが鳴る様に構成されている。通常は、指を入れて保持する部分なので、探し易く、緊急時に即座に対応でき上、この部分にストラップを付けておく事もできる。
尚、万が一、誤ってサイレンを鳴らしてしまった場合、焦ってしまい、停止操作ができなくなる恐れがある。特に視覚障害者は、目視で確認できないので、焦った時は大問題になる。そこで本発明では加速度センサーを内臓し、本体を強く振れば再生が停止する様に装置されている。
本体を振るだけなので、スイッチを探す必要が無いので、視覚障害者や高齢者にとって、極めて利便性が高い。
The handle 8 also serves as an emergency switch, and is configured so that a siren will sound when pulled strongly in an emergency. Usually, it is a part that holds the finger in, so it is easy to find and can respond immediately in an emergency, and you can attach a strap to this part.
If the siren is accidentally sounded, it may become impatient and stop operation may not be possible. In particular, visually impaired persons cannot visually confirm, so it becomes a big problem when they are impatient. Therefore, in the present invention, an acceleration sensor is built in, and the apparatus is configured to stop reproduction when the main body is shaken strongly.
Because it only shakes the main body, there is no need to search for a switch, so it is extremely convenient for the visually impaired and the elderly.

本発明の、請求項1から請求項2の、いずれかに記載された構成を、1つ又は複数選択して採用すれば、視覚障害者が求めていたボイスメモを製造する事が可能となり、視覚障害者の生活の質の向上に大きく貢献する。If one or a plurality of configurations according to any one of claims 1 to 2 of the present invention are selected and adopted, a voice memo requested by a visually impaired person can be produced, and visual Contribute greatly to improving the quality of life for people with disabilities.
