Abstract

Ce système de commande sonore comporte des appareils (200, 201, 202) de reproduction qui reproduisent un son et émettent le son reproduit par l'intermédiaire d'écouteurs (200e, 201e, 202e) ou d'un casque d'écoute, et un dispositif embarqué (100) qui est connecté aux appareils de reproduction de sorte à pouvoir communiquer avec ceux-ci. Le dispositif embarqué est muni d'un dispositif de détection d'entrée (11) qui détecte des entrées en provenance d'un conducteur, et d'un dispositif de transmission (18) de signal de suppression qui, lorsque le dispositif de détection d'entrée détecte une entrée en provenance du conducteur, transmet un signal de suppression destiné à supprimer la sortie sonore vers les appareils de reproduction. Les appareils de reproduction sont pourvus d'un dispositif de suppression (24) qui, lorsqu'un signal de suppression est reçu, supprime la sortie sonore qui est émis à partir des écouteurs ou du casque d'écoute.
