Abstract

The blind person auxiliary equipment prints the ambiance on the upper body. The ambiance is probed by infra-red radiation sensors (1), which can read distances and with two sensors next to each other reading can be effected in depth and recorded. Prepared pins (6) are made to move. When a greater movement for an object closer to the sensor occurs, a greater pressure is exerted on the body. A person can feel the ambiance on all sides of the body. The sensors can also record contrasts and colors. All the components of the equipment can be placed in a sort of T-shirt, which a person can wear. They can be activated by batteries.

Description

Korte aanduiding: blindenbegeleider zodat de omgeving gevoeld wordt.Short description: guide for the blind so that the environment can be felt.

De uitvinding heeft betrekking op een product dat er voor zorgt dat blinden, slecht zienden of eventu-5 eel geheime operaties in het donker, kunnen rondlopen, doordat ze de omgeving kunnen waarnemen. Het product zal er ook voor zorgen dat blinden diepte, verte, wat aan de rugzijde en zijkanten, aan het gebeuren is. Eventueel contrasten en kleuren kunnen herkennen.The invention relates to a product which ensures that blind, visually impaired or possibly secret operations in the dark can walk around, because they can observe the environment. The product will also ensure that blind depth, distance, what is happening on the back and sides. Being able to recognize any contrasts and colors.

Andere uitvindingen zijn te vinden onder de internationale classificatie (IPC A61 F9, G02). Een voorbeeld IPC A61 F9/08; G02(1)/00, zorgt ervoor dat een bril de omgeving waarneemt en deze aan 10 het oor de juiste informatie weergeeft via een kleine luidspreker. Men is ook bezig om een satelliet de omgeving te laten waarnemen via een camera die de blinde persoon bij zich heeft en door een wederkerend signaal de blinde persoon vertelt waar er iets te zien is.Other inventions can be found under the international classification (IPC A61 F9, G02). An example IPC A61 F9 / 08; G02 (1) / 00, ensures that glasses perceive the environment and present it to the ear with the correct information via a small loudspeaker. A satellite is also observing the surroundings through a camera that the blind person has with him and a recurring signal tells the blind person where there is something to see.

De uitvinding zelf bestaat uit een paar bestaande elementen die we samen brengen in een totaal nieuw concept, het innoverende van de uitving bestaat erin dat we eigenlijk de omgeving printen op 15 het lichaam (7) van de personen. Zoals blinden gevoelig zijn aan de vingers en daardoor braille kunnen lezen hebben blinden ook veel meer gevoeligheid op heel hun lichaam (7) tenzij geen blinden erop geoefend hebben. Een bestaand element zijn sensoren (1) die via infrarode stralen de omgeving in kaart kunnen brengen. Ze kunnen afstanden lezen, als we zelfs twee lazers naast elkaar plaatst kunnen we zoals ogen diepte weergeven. Al deze informatie wordt verwerkt via een processor 20 (2). Een tweede bestaand element zijn plastic (of andere soorten) pins (6), die via een elektrische impuls gemanipuleerd kunnen worden. We zorgen ervoor dat we een soort ‘t-shirf (8) maken met deze pins die een blinde persoon kan aantrekken.The invention itself consists of a few existing elements that we bring together in a totally new concept, the innovative aspect of the conception is that we actually print the environment on the body (7) of the people. Just as blind people are sensitive to the fingers and therefore able to read Braille, blind people also have much more sensitivity on their entire body (7) unless no blind people have trained on it. An existing element is sensors (1) that can map the environment through infrared rays. They can read distances, if we even place two lazers next to each other we can show depth like eyes. All this information is processed via a processor 20 (2). A second existing element is plastic (or other types of) pins (6), which can be manipulated via an electrical pulse. We make sure that we make a kind of "t-shirf (8) with these pins that can attract a blind person.

Het zal erop neerkomen dat deze pins (6), de omgeving gecreëerd door sensoren (1), zal laten bewegen zodat een element of object wat dichtbij staat een hardere indrukking zal geven op het 25 lichaam, tgov. een object dat verder is verwijderd. Er bestaat een verschil tussen het lopen in een stad of op een weiland. Daarom zorgen we ervoor dat we de sensorstraal kunnen vergroten of verkleinen. Zodat de blinde ook een detail van een object kan voelen. Door verschillende sensoren in bijvoorbeeld knopen van een ‘t-shirt’ (8) te monteren, zowel aan de voor-, zij-, of achterkant, zal de blinde persoon ook voelen wat er rondom hem gebeurt. Hoe meer sensoren (1) op een juiste plaats 30 staat en hoe kleiner de pins zijn, hoe meer de blinde zal voelen. Door een dubbele structuur in de pins (6) te brengen zal de blinde ook diepte kunnen waarnemen. De pins (6) worden in compartimenten gestoken, zodat er per compartiment één of twee lazers aanwezig zullen zijn.It will come down to these pins (6), the environment created by sensors (1), to move so that an element or object that is close by will give a harder impression on the body, tgov. an object that has been further removed. There is a difference between walking in a city or on a meadow. That is why we ensure that we can increase or decrease the sensor beam. So that the blind can also feel a detail of an object. By mounting different sensors in, for example, buttons of a "t-shirt" (8), both at the front, side or back, the blind person will also feel what is happening around him. The more sensors (1) in a correct position and the smaller the pins, the more the blind will feel. By introducing a double structure into the pins (6), the blind will also be able to perceive depth. The pins (6) are inserted into compartments, so that one or two lazers will be present per compartment.

De 't-shirt' (8) die we gaan creëren bevat dus pins die gedrukt kunnen worden op de buik en borst gedeelte, aan de zijkanten van het boven lichaam en aan de rugzijde. In deze ‘t-shirt’ (8) zitten ook 35 alle andere elementen zoals lithium batterijen (4), processoren (2), elektrische draden (3), draaiwieltje voor de manipulatie van lazerhoek en los ervan, sensor-ogen (1).The 't-shirt' (8) that we are going to create contains pins that can be printed on the abdomen and chest, on the sides of the upper body and on the back. This 't-shirt' (8) also contains all other elements such as lithium batteries (4), processors (2), electrical wires (3), rotary wheel for manipulating the laser angle and separately from it, sensor eyes (1) .

Als lazers contrasten of kleuren kunnen waarnemen kunnen blinden ook kleuren waarnemen, door bepaalde vormen (cirkels, rechthoeken, vierkanten, enz) aan ieder kleur toe te kennen en deze te laten printen door de pins op de schouders bijvoorbeeld. Op deze manier weet een blinde of het rood 40 of groen is, misschien kunnen ze wel teksten lezen, die dan weer geprint wordt op de vingers en omgezet wordt in braille schrift.If lazers can perceive contrasts or colors, the blind can also perceive colors by assigning certain shapes (circles, rectangles, squares, etc.) to each color and having them printed by the pins on the shoulders, for example. In this way a blind person knows whether the red is 40 or green, perhaps they can read texts, which are then printed on the fingers and converted into Braille.
