Abstract

The device has vocal synthesis units, and an LED (2) to provide light indication, where the device is in a form of a portable case (1) with a universal serial busconnection (4). An internal memory stores information independent from a peripheral system, and a start and stop switch (3) allows stopping or starting of the case. A potentiometer (7) adjusts volume output, and a solar cell supplies power to the device.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif portable appelé guide vocal, proposant la lecture d'informations stockées sur le dispositif dès lors que la présence du dispositif est détecté automatiquement par un système informatique à distance, disposant d'un émetteur récepteur radiofréquence. The present invention relates to a portable device called voice guide, proposing the reading of information stored on the device when the presence of the device is detected automatically by a remote computer system, having a radio frequency transceiver.

La présente invention propose un matériel électronique sonore et de petite taille, disposant d'un émetteur récepteur radiofréquence permettant d'être identifié à distance, qui déclenche la lecture ~o d'informations vocales stockées sur le boîtier en fonction d'un point remarquable et donc d'une position géographique, et ce dans un périmètre de plusieurs dizaines de métres. The present invention proposes a sound electronic equipment and small size, having a radiofrequency transceiver to be identified remotely, which triggers the playback ~ o voice information stored on the housing according to a remarkable point and therefore a geographical position, and this in a range of several tens of meters.

Le guide vocal est une solution technique présentée sous la 15 forme d'un boîtier de taille réduite permettant de stocker une application informatique et des données, qui émet un signal sonore et/ou visuel lorsqu'il est reconnu. The voice guide is a technical solution presented in the form of a small-sized box for storing a computer application and data, which emits a sound and / or visual signal when it is recognized.

Ce dispositif est caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte une puce avec 20 des moyens de synthèse vocale, un émetteur récepteur radio. En terme d'intelligence électronique, ce système allie la lecture d'une information à distance grâce à la radiofréquence, et la restitution de messages sonores grâce à la synthèse vocale. This device is characterized in that it comprises a chip with voice synthesis means, a radio transceiver. In terms of electronic intelligence, this system combines remote reading of information thanks to radiofrequency, and the reproduction of sound messages thanks to voice synthesis.

25 Figure 1 : exposé détaillé de la figure Le dispositif comporte : Figure 1: detailed description of the figure The device comprises:

• Un boîtier (1) avec une coque de protection et une forme ergonomique, adaptée à la portabilité et la prise en main : - une diode (2) permettant l'affichage d'un témoin lumineux - un interrupteur de mise en marche et d'arrêt (3) - une connectique (4) permettant la liaison à un matériel informatique. - des fonctions audio : o un haut-parleur (5) o une prise jack pour le branchement d'une oreillette (6) 30 35 o un potentiomètre de réglage de sortie sonore (7) • A housing (1) with a protective shell and an ergonomic shape, suitable for portability and handling: - a diode (2) for the display of a light - a switch on and off stopping (3) - a connector (4) allowing the connection to a computer hardware. - audio functions: o a speaker (5) o a jack for the connection of a headset (6) 30 35 o a sound output adjustment potentiometer (7)

Le dispositif exploite des éléments, non représentés figure 1 5 • Un circuit imprimé comprenant : - Un émetteur / récepteur radio - Une puce combinant la synthèse vocale et les fonctions d'un microcontrôleur permettant : • de reconnaître les informations contenues 10 de stocker et de gérer les informations • de gérer les fonctionnalités d'écoute du dispositif décrites dans le paragraphe précédent • une mémoire annexe si la mémoire du microcontrôleur s'avère insuffisante. • Les informations contenues dans la base de données du microcontrôleur sont les suivantes : - Un code ou identifiant unique attaché à un message sonore. 20 L'appareil après avoir été identifié, lance un signal visuel en activant une diode lumineuse. - The device exploits elements, not shown in FIG. 1. A printed circuit comprising: a radio transmitter / receiver A chip combining the voice synthesis and the functions of a microcontroller allowing: to recognize the information contained in the storage and manage the information • manage the listening features of the device described in the previous paragraph • an additional memory if the memory of the microcontroller proves to be insufficient. • The information contained in the microcontroller's database is as follows: - A unique code or identifier attached to a sound message. The device after being identified, sends a visual signal by activating a light diode. -

Le guide vocal propose à l'utilisateur des informations sonores, 25 relatives à son environnement. Le dispositif énonce ensuite à son propriétaire sous forme vocale par voix de synthèse une information liée au contexte. The voice guide offers the user sound information, 25 relating to its environment. The device then announces to its owner in voice form by synthetic voice information related to the context.
