Abstract

Disclosed is an apparatus for generating acoustic signals, including at least the following components: a pressure sensor, a data capturing unit, a data processing unit and an output device for acoustic signals. The apparatus concerned is used for example with shoes, certain sounds being generated by the pressure exerted upon the sole by the foot, which sounds are heard by the shoe user. It may be used in gloves as well, also to generate sounds to be heard by the user when he touches objects.

Description

Device for generating acoustic signals

The invention relates to a device for generating acoustic signals, comprising at least the following

Components, namely a pressure sensor, a data collection and data processing device and an output device for acoustic signals.

It is known that sounds and noises can affect the human body in a variety of ways. For example, the so-called "department store music" influences the purchase received. Background music in a variety of ways is also used to create certain moods of people in the field of music expansion. It is also recognized in psychology that, for example, the sound of the beating heart for a child in the womb has positive influences.

The term psychophony is also a treatment method for migraines, wherein an EEG (electroencephalogram) is used to measure the brain waves of a patient, the patient being symptom-free and relaxed at the time of the recording. With the help of special computer software, the brain frequencies recorded in this way are converted into notes. These notes then result in individual "music" that is unique to the patient. In the event of an acute migraine attack, the patient then listens to this "music" again and the complaints subside.

Such methods of making certain natural rhythms of the human body audible are very complex. The object of the present invention is therefore a

Device for generating acoustic signals fen, which converts self-rhythms, in particular movement rhythms of the human body, into acoustic signals in a simple manner. It is also a task to generate acoustic model rhythms for body movements.

The object is achieved by the features of the main claim. Advantageous further developments are characterized in the dependent claims.

The object is achieved according to the invention in that a device for generating acoustic signals is created which comprises at least the following components, namely a pressure sensor, a data collection and data processing device and an output device for acoustic signals.

The present invention thus relates to a device in which a pressure sensor absorbs the force exerted on it. This strength can be achieved through muscle strength

Body generated and / or by its gravity. An example of such a force is the pressure that the foot creates when it is placed and rolled on the ground. The signals recorded by the pressure sensor are forwarded to a data collection and data processing device. This data collection and data processing device comprises a tone generator. This tone generator converts the sensor signals into tones according to their strength, intensity and sequence. These tones are then emitted to the environment via an acoustic signal output device. Such an output device can be, for example, a loudspeaker.

A movement rhythm can thus be made audible. On the one hand, the user hears his own rhythm, possibly amplified and with different, given if necessary, sound qualities to be selected by the user. Furthermore, the user of the device can be given a rhythm so that he can adapt to it. Furthermore, tones can be triggered by the movements of the user, the user being able to select the type of tones.

In all three cases, the sensory experiences are enriched with plastic listening experiences and intensified overall. The movement form is transformed into an auditory form. The resulting increase in sensory qualities in turn affects the user's movements. At the same time, the movement is objectified by hearing and thus made more controllable and controllable.

Further advantageous embodiments of the invention result from the other features mentioned in the subclaims.

It is advantageous that several sensors are arranged in the form of a sensor field. It is provided according to the invention that the pressure sensors are connected individually and / or in groups of several and / or all at the same time directly to the data collection and data processing device.

According to the invention, the data collection and data processing device is equipped with at least one tone generator. The tone generator advantageously generates tones as a function of the signal inputs of the pressure sensors. It is further provided according to the invention that the tone generator generates tones as a function of the signal outputs of the data collection and data processing device.

simulate a more solid running partner or train changes in running speeds. Using a random changes of run rhythms and ^'order of speeds can be given to the rotor from outside forth. A program is also conceivable that simulates run starts and, for example, specifies the star command. Rhythm models can be used for technical movements (hurdles, jump starts, etc.) and for dancing. It is also conceivable and provided according to the invention that the models are taken from prominent role models, such as runners.

A third possibility is to generate programmed sounds by walking or running. In this case, the movements of the user are not supported, but these trigger special noises through pressure pulses. In this case, the emotional and associative quality of the acoustic productions is important, for example animal noises, fan signals, sounds accompanying the dance, bizarre sounds, comic noises.

FIG. 2 shows a shoe 20 according to the invention with a device according to the invention. The sensors 1 are arranged in the sole of the shoe 21. The remaining components of the device according to the invention can be accommodated in the heel of the shoe 20 or can be arranged in a pocket 22 placed on the shoe.

FIG. 3 shows an insole for a shoe 30. The sensors 1 are arranged in the sole. This insole can be inserted into any shoes, so that normal footwear can also be used for certain, in particular therapeutic purposes.

FIG. 4 shows a glove 40 according to the invention. In the fingers and on the palm of the glove sensors 1 are arranged. According to the invention, the sensors 1 can also be arranged in the form of a sensor field or a sensor surface. The other components of the device according to the invention can be accommodated in a pocket in the cuff 41. With the help of the glove according to the invention, the user can understand objects in the truest sense of the word. Is by changing the pressure or the manner in which certain items ^¬ be understood, certain clays can be generated. Such a glove can be used, for example, in the rehabilitation of diseases of the hands and muscles. The user is rewarded in a certain way either by the rhythms prescribed as described above or by the own rhythm, by the then audible tones, and endeavors to continue the movements. This can be of great importance especially for rheumatism patients.

The device according to the invention, in particular in the form of sports shoes, can be used in high-performance and popular sports. Either the stimulating effect or the correcting effect of the tones generated by the pressure of the feet can be used. Furthermore, the device according to the invention can be used, in particular when used in shoes for rehabilitation, that is to say to learn or relearn how to walk correctly, for example after severe impairments of the musculoskeletal system.

The device can also be used for adolescents, in fun sports, for dancing and music, the interconnection with musical rhythms (techno) being provided according to the invention.

It is clear that the device described here for

Generation of acoustic signals due to pressure events sen can also be used in a different way using the example of a shoe or a glove. The described exemplary embodiments do not represent any restriction in the use of the subject matter of the invention.
