Description

DISPOSITIF PORTABLE DE GENERATION D'ONDES ET GANT LE COMPORTANT PORTABLE WAVE GENERATION DEVICE AND GLOVE COMPRISING SAME
La présente invention vise un dispositif portable de génération d'ondes et un gant le comportant. Elle s'applique, en particulier, à la manifestation d'émotions au cours d'un événement, par exemple sportif, publique ou privée. Les supporters des équipes sportives disposent d'assez peu de moyens de manifester leurs émotions lors de rencontres sportives. Par exemple, des ballons longilignes leur permettent, en les choquant, l'un contre l'autre, d'émettre des bruits. Cependant, ces moyens peuvent gêner la vue de leurs voisins. La présente invention vise à remédier à ces inconvénients. A cet effet, la présente invention vise, selon un premier aspect, un dispositif de génération d'ondes, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte : - un moyen de fixation à la main d'un utilisateur et - un interrupteur et - un moyen de génération d'ondes adapté à émettre des ondes en fonction des mouvements de la main de l'utilisateur. Grâce à ces dispositions, l'utilisateur du dispositif peut, en fonction des mouvements de sa main qui porte le dispositif, provoquer une émission d'ondes, par exemple sonores ou lumineuses et ainsi encourager une équipe ou marquer un événement, public ou privé. Selon des caractéristiques particulières, le moyen de fixation comporte une encoche adaptée à fixer le dispositif sur un gant. Grâce à ces dispositions, la fixation sur le gant est aisément amovible. Selon des caractéristiques particulières, le moyen de génération d'ondes comporte une surface bosselée adaptée, lors d'un frottement, à générer des ondes sonores. Grâce à ces dispositions, l'utilisateur peut manifester son émotion sans consommer d'énergie dans le dispositif. Selon des caractéristiques particulières, le moyen de génération d'ondes comporte un haut-parleur et un circuit électronique de génération de signaux électriques représentatifs de sons, le haut-parleur émettant des sons représentés par lesdits signaux électriques. Selon des caractéristiques particulières, le moyen de génération d'ondes comporte au moins un transducteur électro-lumineux et un circuit électronique de génération de signaux électriques représentatifs de jeux de lumière, chaque transducteur électro-lumineux émettant de la lumière en fonction des jeux de lumière représentés par lesdits signaux électriques. Grâce à chacune de ces dispositions, l'utilisateur peut manifester son émotion sans faire d'effort physique important. Selon des caractéristiques particulières, le moyen de génération d'ondes comporte un microphone et un moyen de mémorisation d'ondes sonores captées par ledit microphone. Grâce à ces dispositions, l'utilisateur peut enregistrer des sons à l'avance, surprendre et distraire son auditoire. Selon des caractéristiques particulières, le dispositif tel que succinctement exposé ci- dessus comporte : - un capteur de mouvement adapté à émettre un signal représentatif des mouvements effectués par le dispositif et - des moyens de traitement adaptés à traiter les signaux représentatifs de mouvements et à commander le moyen de génération d'ondes en fonction du résultat du traitement des signaux représentatifs de mouvements. Grâce à ces dispositions, les caractéristiques des ondes émises, par exemple fréquence et intensité, peuvent dépendre des mouvements imprimés au dispositif par l'utilisateur. Selon un deuxième aspect, la présente invention vise un gant, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte un dispositif tel que succinctement exposé ci-dessus. Les avantages, buts et caractéristiques particulières de ce gant étant similaires à ceux du dispositif succinctement exposé ci-dessus, ils ne sont pas rappelés ici. D'autres avantages, buts et caractéristiques de la présente invention ressortiront de la description qui va suivre, faite dans un but explicatif et nullement limitatif en regard des dessins annexés dans lesquels : - la figure 1 représente, schématiquement, une vue de côté un dispositif selon un premier mode de réalisation du dispositif objet de la présente invention ; - la figure 2 représente, schématiquement, un circuit électronique du dispositif illustré en figure 1 ; - la figure 3 représente, schématiquement, une vue de côté un dispositif selon un deuxième mode de réalisation de la présente invention ; - la figure 4 représente, schématiquement, un circuit électronique du dispositif illustré en figure 3 ; - la figure 5 représente, schématiquement, une vue de côté un dispositif selon un troisième mode de réalisation de la présente invention ; - la figure 6 représente, schématiquement, un circuit électronique du dispositif illustré en figure 5 et - la figure 7 représente, schématiquement, des composants d'un dispositif selon un quatrième mode de réalisation de la présente invention. On observe, en figures 1 et 2, un dispositif 100 comportant un boîtier 110 présentant deux faces principales 111 et 112 et entourant un circuit électronique 120. La face principale 111 est muni de bosselages adaptés, lorsque l'on frotte deux faces 111 de deux dispositifs tels qu'illustrés en figure 1 , à émettre des ondes sonores, comme les élytres de certains insectes, par exemple les cigales. La face principale 112 est munie d'une encoche 113 adaptée à fixer le dispositif sur un gant. En variante, l'encoche 113 est remplacée ou complétée par une bande élastique destinée à entourer la main de l'utilisateur et/ou deux anses adaptées à entourer les auriculaires et index de la main de l'utilisateur. Le boîtier 110 comporte une ouverture 114 pour la diffusion d'ondes sonores émises par le circuit électronique 120. Le circuit électronique 120 comporte un haut-parleur 121 , un processeur 122, une mémoire de signaux représentatifs de sons 123, un détecteur ou capteur de mouvement 124, une source d'énergie électrique 125 et un interrupteur 126 qui, en position fermée, provoque l'alimentation électrique du circuit électronique 120. Le haut-parleur 121 est de type connu. Lorsque l'interrupteur 126 est en position fermée, le haut-parleur 121 émet des ondes sonores représentatives des signaux qu'il reçoit de la part du processeur 122. Le processeur 122 est de type connu. Il comporte une mémoire de programme (non représentée) pour commander le fonctionnement des différents composants du circuit 120. Le détecteur de mouvement 124 est déclenché par les mouvements du dispositif 100. Par exemple, il comporte une partie mobile conductrice qui vient au contact d'une partie fixe conductrice à chaque fois que le dispositif 100 est secoué latéralement. Il émet un signal à destination du processeur 122 à chaque fois qu'un mouvement présentant des caractéristiques d'amplitude et/ou d'accélération suffisante est subit par le dispositif 100. A chaque fois qu'un tel mouvement est détecté, et en fonction de la fréquence et de la durée de la détection de tels mouvements, le processeur 122 effectue une sélection d'un signal représentatif de sons dans la mémoire 123, d'une vitesse d'émission de ce signal et d'une intensité d'émission de ce signal. Par exemple, le logiciel de fonctionnement du processeur 122 est tel que : - la vitesse d'émission du signal est proportionnelle à la fréquence des mouvements détectés par le détecteur de mouvements 124, - l'intensité d'émission est proportionnelle à la durée de la dernière détection de mouvement et - la sélection d'un signal représentatif de sons est aléatoire. Ensuite, le processeur 122 commande le fonctionnement du haut-parleur 121 , éventuellement par l'intermédiaire d'un amplificateur (non représenté), pour que le haut- parleur 121 émette le signal sonore sélectionné, à la vitesse (fréquence) sélectionnée et à l'intensité sonore sélectionnée. Grâce à ces dispositions techniques, le dispositif de génération d'ondes 100, qui comporte, comme moyen de fixation à la main d'un utilisateur, l'encoche 113 et comme moyen de génération d'ondes adapté, lorsque l'interrupteur 126 est en position fermée, à émettre des ondes en fonction des mouvements de la main de l'utilisateur, le circuit électronique 120, permet à l'utilisateur de manifester ses émotions par la génération d'ondes sonores plus ou moins farfelues, plus ou moins intenses et plus ou moins rapidement émises. Par exemple, au cours d'un applaudissement effectué par l'utilisateur, les sons émis sont successivement des meuglements, des coups de klaxon, des sirènes, des explosions, ... qui sont émis à une fréquence et à une intensité proportionnelles à celles des mouvements des mains : plus l'utilisateur bat vite des mains, plus les signaux sonores sont émis rapidement (fréquences plus élevées et sons plus aigus) et plus l'utilisateur fait des mouvements amples, plus les signaux sonores sont émis avec une forte intensité (amplitude des ondes sonores plus élevées). On observe, en figures 3 et 4, un dispositif de génération d'ondes 300 comportant un boîtier 310 présentant deux faces principales 311 et 312 et entourant un circuit électronique 320. La face principale 311 est muni de bosselages adaptés, lorsque l'on frotte deux facesThe present invention relates to a portable wave generation device and a glove comprising it.

FIGS. 1 and 2 show a device 100 comprising a housing 110 having two main faces 111 and 112 and surrounding an electronic circuit 120. The main face 111 is provided with suitable bosses when two faces 111 are rubbed two devices as illustrated in FIG. 1, to emit sound waves, like the elytra of certain insects, for example the cicadas.

It transmits a signal to the processor 122 each time a movement exhibiting characteristics of sufficient amplitude and / or acceleration is undergone by the device 100. Each time such a movement is detected, and as a function of the frequency and the duration of the detection of such movements, the processor 122 makes a selection of a signal representative of sounds in the memory 123, of a speed of emission of this signal and of an intensity of emission of this signal. For example, the operating software of the processor 122 is such that: the signal transmission speed is proportional to the frequency of the movements detected by the movement detector 124, - the emission intensity is proportional to the duration of the last motion detection and - the selection of a signal representative of sounds is random. Then, the processor 122 controls the operation of the loudspeaker 121, possibly via an amplifier (not shown), so that the loudspeaker 121 emits the selected sound signal, at the selected speed (frequency) and at the selected loudness. Thanks to these technical provisions, the wave generation device 100, which comprises, as a means of fixing to the hand of a user, the notch 113 and as a suitable wave generation means, when the switch 126 is in the closed position, to emit waves according to the movements of the user's hand, the electronic circuit 120, allows the user to manifest his emotions by the generation of more or less eccentric, more or less intense sound waves and more or less quickly issued. For example, during an applause performed by the user, the sounds emitted are successively moans, horns, sirens, explosions, ... which are emitted at a frequency and an intensity proportional to those hand movements: the faster the user claps their hands, the faster the sound signals are emitted (higher frequencies and higher sounds) and the more the user makes wide movements, the more loud the sound signals are emitted (higher sound wave amplitude). We observe, in Figures 3 and 4, a wave generation device 300 comprising a housing 310 having two main faces 311 and 312 and surrounding an electronic circuit 320. The main face 311 is provided with suitable bosses, when rubbing two sides
311 de deux dispositifs tels qu'illustrés en figure 3, à émettre des ondes sonores, comme les élytres de certains insectes, par exemple les cigales. La face principale 312 est munie d'une encoche 313 adaptée à fixer le dispositif sur un gant. En variante, l'encoche 313 est remplacée ou complétée par une bande élastique destinée à entourer la main de l'utilisateur et/ou deux anses adaptées à entourer les auriculaires et index de la main de l'utilisateur. Le boîtier 310 comporte une ouverture 314 pour la diffusion d'ondes lumineuses émises par le circuit électronique 320. Le circuit électronique 320 comporte un ensemble de diodes électro-luminescentes 321 , un processeur 322, une mémoire de signaux représentatifs de jeux de lumières 323, un détecteur ou capteur de mouvement 324, une source d'énergie électrique 325 et un interrupteur 326 qui, en position fermée, provoque l'alimentation électrique du circuit électronique 320. L'ensemble de diodes électro-luminescentes 321 est de type connu. Il comporte des diodes électro-luminescentes de différentes couleurs et de différentes puissances lumineuses. Lorsque l'interrupteur 326 est en position fermée, l'ensemble de diodes électroluminescentes 321 émet des ondes lumineuses représentatives des signaux qu'il reçoit de la part du processeur 322. Le processeur 322 est de type connu. Il comporte une mémoire de programme (non représentée) pour commander le fonctionnement des différents composants du circuit 320. Le détecteur de mouvement 324 est déclenché par les mouvements du dispositif 300. Par exemple, il comporte une partie mobile conductrice qui vient au contact d'une partie fixe conductrice à chaque fois que le dispositif 300 est secoué latéralement. Il émet un signal à destination du processeur 322 à chaque fois qu'un mouvement présentant des caractéristiques d'amplitude et/ou d'accélération suffisante est subit par le dispositif de génération d'ondes 300. A chaque fois qu'un tel mouvement est détecté, et en fonction de la fréquence et de la durée de la détection de tels mouvements, le processeur 322 effectue une sélection d'un signal représentatif de jeux de lumières dans la mémoire 323, d'une vitesse d'émission de ce jeu de lumières et d'une intensité d'émission de ce jeu de lumière. Par exemple, le logiciel de fonctionnement du processeur 322 est tel que : - la vitesse d'émission du jeu de lumières est proportionnelle à la fréquence des mouvements détectés par le détecteur de mouvements 324, - l'intensité d'émission est proportionnelle à la durée de la dernière détection de mouvement et - la sélection d'un signal représentatif de sons est aléatoire. Ensuite, le processeur 322 commande le fonctionnement de l'ensemble de diodes électro-luminescentes 321 , éventuellement par l'intermédiaire d'un amplificateur (non représenté), pour que l'ensemble de diodes électroluminescentes émette le jeu de lumières sélectionné, à la vitesse sélectionnée et à l'intensité lumineuse sélectionnée. Grâce à ces dispositions techniques, le dispositif de génération d'ondes 300, qui comporte, comme moyen de fixation à la main d'un utilisateur, l'encoche 313 et comme moyen de génération d'ondes adapté, lorsque l'interrupteur 326 est en position fermée, à émettre des ondes en fonction des mouvements de la main de l'utilisateur, le circuit électronique 320, permet à l'utilisateur de manifester ses émotions par la génération d'ondes lumineuses plus ou moins farfelues, plus ou moins intenses et plus ou moins rapidement émises. Par exemple, au cours d'un applaudissement effectué par l'utilisateur, les jeux de lumières émis sont successivement des flashs, des séquences de couleurs balayant les couleurs des diodes électro-luminescentes, ... qui sont émis à une vitesse et à une intensité proportionnelles à celles des mouvements des mains : plus l'utilisateur bat vite des mains, plus les jeux de lumière sont émis rapidement et plus l'utilisateur fait des mouvements amples, plus les jeux de lumières sont émis avec une forte intensité (amplitude des ondes lumineuses plus élevées). On observe, en figures 5 et 6, un dispositif 500 comportant un boîtier 510 présentant deux faces principales 511 et 512 et entourant un circuit électronique 520. La face principale 511 est muni de bosselages adaptés, lorsque l'on frotte deux faces 511 de deux dispositifs tels qu'illustrés en figure 5, à émettre des ondes sonores, comme les élytres de certains insectes, par exemple les cigales. La face principale 512 est munie d'une encoche 513 adaptée à fixer le dispositif sur un gant. En variante, l'encoche 513 est remplacée ou complétée par une bande élastique destinée à entourer la main de l'utilisateur et/ou deux anses adaptées à entourer les auriculaires et index de la main de l'utilisateur. Le boîtier 510 comporte une ouverture 514 pour la diffusion d'ondes sonores émises par le circuit électronique 520. Le circuit électronique 520 comporte le haut-parleur 121, un processeur 522, la mémoire de signaux représentatifs de sons 123, le détecteur de mouvement 124, la source d'énergie électrique 125 et l'interrupteur 126 qui, en position fermée, provoque l'alimentation électrique du circuit électronique 520 (voir figures 1 et 2). Il comporte, en outre, un microphone 540, un convertisseur analogique-numérique 545 recevant les signaux émis par le microphone 540 et les fournissant au processeur 522, une entrée de signaux numériques 550 et un interrupteur 555. Le microphone 540 est de type connu. Il reçoit des ondes sonores et fournit un signal représentatif de ces ondes sonores. Ces ondes sonores peuvent provenir de différentes sources, par exemple, des ondes vocales, des bruits quotidiens, des musiques ... Le convertisseur analogique-numérique 545 recevant les signaux émis par le microphone 540 fournit, au processeur 522, un signal représentatif des ondes sonores reçues par le microphone 540. Le processeur 522 met en mémoire de signaux représentatifs de sons 123, les signaux provenant du convertisseur analogique-numérique 545, lorsque l'interrupteur 555 est fermé. De cette manière, l'utilisateur peut provoquer l'enregistrement de séquences sonores dans la mémoire 123. L'entrée de signaux numériques 550 permet de connecter le dispositif 500 à un ordinateur afin de mémoriser des signaux informatiques représentatifs de sons dans la mémoire 123. L'utilisateur peut ainsi constituer, avec un ordinateur, des fichiers sons et les transmettre au dispositif 500. Les protocoles de transfert et de constitution de fichiers sons sont connus de l'homme du métier et ne sont donc pas détaillés ici. Grâce à ces dispositions techniques, le dispositif de génération de signaux 500, qui comporte, comme moyen de fixation à la main d'un utilisateur, l'encoche 113 et comme moyen de génération d'ondes adapté, lorsque l'interrupteur 126 est en position fermée, à émettre des ondes enregistrées en fonction des mouvements de la main de l'utilisateur, le circuit électronique 520, permet à l'utilisateur de manifester ses émotions par la génération d'ondes sonores enregistrées ou générées par ordinateur, plus ou moins farfelues, plus ou moins intenses et plus ou moins rapidement émises. Par exemple, au cours d'un applaudissement effectué par l'utilisateur, les sons émis sont successivement des séquences musicales, des mots enregistrés par l'utilisateur, des sons de la vie quotidienne, des phrases de célébrités, ... qui sont émis à une fréquence et à une intensité proportionnelles à celles des mouvements des mains : plus l'utilisateur bat vite des mains, plus les signaux sonores sont émis rapidement (fréquences plus élevées et sons plus aigus) et plus l'utilisateur fait des mouvements amples, plus les signaux sonores sont émis avec une forte intensité (amplitude des ondes sonores plus élevées). On observe, en figure 7, un dispositif de génération d'ondes 700 comportant un moyen de fixation à la main d'un utilisateur 710, un boîtier 720 définissant un espace intérieur 730 et un moyen de génération d'ondes 740 adapté à émettre des ondes en sortie 731 dudit espace intérieur, l'émission des ondes étant fonction des mouvements de la main de l'utilisateur. Le moyen de fixation 710 comporte, par exemple, une bande élastique 711 destinée à entourer la main de l'utilisateur, deux anses 712 adaptées à entourer les auriculaires et index de la main de l'utilisateur et/ou une encoche 714 comme indiqué ci-dessus, en regard des figures 1 , 3 et 5. Le moyen de génération d'ondes 740 comporte, à la surface du dispositif 700, des bosselages 747, une embouchure d'un sifflet 741 et un soufflet 746 actionnant un sifflet 745 et, à l'intérieur de l'espace intérieur 730 du boîtier 720 : - le sifflet 741 , - le sifflet 745, - des billes ou cailloux 742 retenues dans un espace fermé 743 et - des battants rigides 748 retenus par des charnières 744. Le sifflet 741 est actionné par le souffle de l'utilisateur. Les billes ou cailloux 742 retenues dans un espace fermé 743 génèrent des ondes sonores lorsque l'utilisateur agite la main et le dispositif 700. Les battants rigides 748 retenus par des charnières 744 génèrent des ondes sonores lorsqu'ils s'entrechoquent au cours des mouvements de la main de l'utilisateur et du dispositif 700. Le soufflet 746 provoque le sifflement du sifflet 745 lorsque le mouvement de la main de l'utilisateur met sous pression ce soufflet, par exemple lorsque l'utilisateur entrechoque deux dispositifs identiques 700. Les différents modes de réalisation du dispositif objet de la présente invention exposés ci-dessus peuvent être combinés dans différents autres modes de réalisation, par exemple un mode de réalisation du dispositif objet de la présente invention qui incorpore les moyens illustrés en regard des figures 3 à 6, permettant l'enregistrement et la reproduction de séquences sonores et la génération de jeux de lumières. La présente invention ne se limite pas aux modes de réalisation exposés en regard des figures mais s'étend, au contraire, à leur combinaison et à tout dispositif de génération de signaux qui comporte un moyen de fixation à la main d'un utilisateur, un boîtier définissant un espace intérieur et un moyen de génération d'ondes adapté à émettre des ondes en sortie dudit espace intérieur, l'émission des ondes étant fonction des mouvements de la main de l'utilisateur. En variante, le dispositif objet de la présente invention comporte un alternateur ou un générateur de courant (par exemple une dynamo) qui génère du courant électrique en fonction du mouvement du dispositif. 311 of two devices as illustrated in FIG. 3, to emit sound waves, like the elytra of certain insects, for example the cicadas. The main face 312 is provided with a notch 313 adapted to fix the device on a glove. As a variant, the notch 313 is replaced or supplemented by an elastic band intended to surround the user's hand and / or two handles adapted to surround the little fingers and index finger of the user's hand. The housing 310 includes an opening 314 for the diffusion of light waves emitted by the electronic circuit 320. The electronic circuit 320 comprises a set of light-emitting diodes 321, a processor 322, a memory of signals representative of light sets 323, a motion detector or sensor 324, a source of electrical energy 325 and a switch 326 which, in the closed position, causes the electrical supply to the electronic circuit 320. The set of light-emitting diodes 321 is of known type. It includes light-emitting diodes of different colors and different light powers. When the switch 326 is in the closed position, the set of light-emitting diodes 321 emits light waves representative of the signals it receives from the processor 322. The processor 322 is of known type. It includes a program memory (not shown) for controlling the operation of the various components of the circuit 320. The movement detector 324 is triggered by the movements of the device 300. For example, it comprises a movable conductive part which comes into contact with a conductive fixed part each time the device 300 is shaken laterally. It emits a signal intended for the processor 322 each time a movement having characteristics of sufficient amplitude and / or acceleration is undergone by the wave generation device 300. Each time such a movement is detected, and as a function of the frequency and the duration of the detection of such movements, the processor 322 makes a selection of a signal representative of sets of lights in memory 323, of an emission speed of this set of lights and an emission intensity of this play of light. For example, the operating software of processor 322 is such that: - the speed of emission of the set of lights is proportional to the frequency of the movements detected by the motion detector 324, - the intensity of emission is proportional to the duration of the last motion detection and - the selection of a signal representative of sounds is random. Next, the processor 322 controls the operation of the set of light-emitting diodes 321, possibly via an amplifier (not shown), so that the set of light-emitting diodes emits the selected set of lights, at the selected speed and selected light intensity. Thanks to these technical provisions, the wave generation device 300, which comprises, as a means of fixing to the hand of a user, the notch 313 and as a suitable wave generation means, when the switch 326 is in the closed position, to emit waves according to the movements of the user's hand, the electronic circuit 320, allows the user to manifest his emotions by the generation of more or less eccentric, more or less intense light waves and more or less quickly issued. For example, during an applause performed by the user, the light sets emitted are successively flashes, sequences of colors scanning the colors of the light-emitting diodes, ... which are emitted at a speed and intensity proportional to those of the movements of the hands: the faster the user claps their hands, the faster the light effects are emitted and the more the user makes wide movements, the more intense the light streaks are emitted (higher amplitude of light waves). FIGS. 5 and 6 show a device 500 comprising a housing 510 having two main faces 511 and 512 and surrounding an electronic circuit 520. The main face 511 is provided with suitable bosses, when two faces 511 are rubbed with two devices as illustrated in FIG. 5, to emit sound waves, such as the elytra of certain insects, for example the cicadas. The main face 512 is provided with a notch 513 adapted to fix the device on a glove. As a variant, the notch 513 is replaced or supplemented by an elastic band intended to surround the user's hand and / or two handles adapted to surround the little fingers and index finger of the user's hand. The housing 510 has an opening 514 for the diffusion of sound waves emitted by the electronic circuit 520. The electronic circuit 520 comprises the loudspeaker 121, a processor 522, the memory of signals representative of sounds 123, the motion detector 124 , the source of electrical energy 125 and the switch 126 which, in the closed position, causes the electrical supply of the electronic circuit 520 (see FIGS. 1 and 2). It further comprises a microphone 540, an analog-digital converter 545 receiving the signals emitted by the microphone 540 and supplying them to the processor 522, a digital signal input 550 and a switch 555. The microphone 540 is of known type. It receives sound waves and provides a signal representative of these sound waves. These sound waves can come from different sources, for example, voice waves, daily noises, music ... The analog-digital converter 545 receiving the signals emitted by the microphone 540 provides, to the processor 522, a signal representative of the waves sound received by the microphone 540. The processor 522 stores signals representative of sounds 123, the signals coming from the analog-digital converter 545, when the switch 555 is closed. In this way, the user can cause the recording of sound sequences in the memory 123. The digital signal input 550 makes it possible to connect the device 500 to a computer in order to store computer signals representative of sounds in the memory 123. The user can thus constitute, with a computer, sound files and transmit them to the device 500. The protocols for transferring and constituting sound files are known to those skilled in the art and are therefore not detailed here. Thanks to these technical provisions, the signal generation device 500, which comprises, as a means of fixing to the hand of a user, the notch 113 and as a suitable wave generation means, when the switch 126 is in closed position, to emit waves recorded according to the movements of the user's hand, the electronic circuit 520, allows the user to manifest his emotions by the generation of sound waves recorded or generated by computer, more or less eccentric, more or less intense and more or less quickly emitted. For example, during an applause performed by the user, the sounds emitted are successively musical sequences, words recorded by the user, sounds of everyday life, celebrity phrases, ... which are emitted at a frequency and an intensity proportional to those of the movements of the hands: the faster the user claps his hands, the more quickly the sound signals are emitted (higher frequencies and higher sounds) and the more the user makes wide movements, the louder the sound signals are emitted (higher amplitude of the sound waves). FIG. 7 shows a wave generation device 700 comprising a means of fixing by hand to a user 710, a box 720 defining an interior space 730 and a wave generation means 740 adapted to emit waves at output 731 from said interior space, the emission of waves being a function of the movements of the user's hand.

The whistle 741 is blown by the user. The balls or pebbles 742 retained in an enclosed space 743 generate sound waves when the user shakes the hand and the device 700. The rigid leaves 748 retained by hinges 744 generate sound waves when they collide during movements of the hand of the user and of the device 700. The bellows 746 causes the whistle of the whistle 745 when the movement of the hand of the user pressurizes this bellows, for example when the user collides with two identical devices 700. The different embodiments of the device object of the present invention described above can be combined in different other embodiments, for example an embodiment of the device object of the present invention which incorporates the means illustrated with reference to FIGS. 3 to 6, allowing the recording and reproduction of sound sequences and the generation of lighting effects.
