Haptic communication system using cutaneous actuators for simulation of continuous human touch
摘要
說明書
The haptic communication system 1700 generates 1788 the actuator signals 1718 by encoding features of the temporal envelope 1728 and the speech signals 1706 into the carrier signals 1774. For example, the actuator signal generator 1776 may encode features of the temporal envelope 1728 into the carrier signals 1774 by increasing or decreases the frequency or amplitude of the carrier signals 1774 proportional to the amplitude (e.g., 1732) of the speech signals 1706.
The haptic communication system 1700 generates 1790, by the cutaneous actuators 1722, haptic vibrations 1724 representing the speech sounds 1702 or the textual message 1710 using the actuator signals 1718. Speech messages may therefore be transmitted from one user to another user and converted to haptic messages for greeting, parting, giving attention, helping, consoling, calming, pleasant, and reassuring touches.
