Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif présentant les fonctions permettant d'améliorer les conditions de vie de personnes non-voyantes ou présentant une déficience visuelle et afin de contribuer fortement à la réduction d'accidents des moyens de transport. Ce dispositif est équipé d'un ou plusieurs détecteurs (b) et (b') qui, introduits dans des lunettes (a) ou un véhicule, filment et pistent à distance comme s'ils se trouvaient dans la zone d'implication, envoyant à des casques (c) un signal en morse afin de guider la personne non-voyante, ou des informations par le biais de satellites afin de permettre la conduite automatique des véhicules. Au moyen des technologies UMTS (z) et GPS (g), les détecteurs collectent des images et les stockent dans une mémoire temporaire (q), les comparent (o) aux images contenues dans la base de données (d) et convertissent le résultat en morse (e). les utilisateurs équipés de GPS (g) peuvent tracer l'itinéraire, appuyer sur l'interrupteur (i) et annoncer au microphone (h) la destination, le GPS enverra les coordonnées de passage qui seront converties en morse et les envoie à travers le casque ou au véhicule l'informant ou le dirigeant automatiquement durant le passage. Ce dispositif permet de préciser la distance par rapport à un obstacle au moyen de capteurs ultrasonores (b') et d'un circuit (c').
