Abstract

The invention discloses an ultrasonic tactile feedback system and method for assisting a blind person to perceive. The ultrasonic tactile feedback system comprises a PC terminal for generating a focustime sequence; a microcontroller which stores focus information; an FPGA controller which completes conversion of the focus under different unit coordinate systems; an ultrasonic phased array which controls sound pressure distribution in a cavity surrounded by the ultrasonic phased array, and a plurality of tactile points or three-dimensional patterns are formed in space under the action of driving signals on each unit ultrasonic transducer, so that static and freely touchable aerial virtual braille points are realized; the transmitted and modulated ultrasonic waves at the focal point in a phase delay mode are focused according to the focal point coordinates, so that a person obtains tactile perception to indicate that the current gesture task is smoothly completed; and when the hand position capture sensor captures the identification position information, the PC terminal sends the next group of control signals to finish the real-time update and display of the information. Static braille information can be formed in space and can be quickly changed and switched in real time, and the blind can touch and sense the braille information in a non-contact mode.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of spatial volume imaging, and in particular relates to an ultrasonic tactile feedback system and a method thereof for assisting perception of blind people. Background technique [0002] Blind people need to experience a more three-dimensional and richer world than their daily life. Through touch, they can feel everything in the world, such as animals, plants, celestial bodies, and buildings. A general touch exhibition requires a large number of various exhibits. Daily learning by touch is also through flat two-dimensional touch images, or special three-dimensional model perception. Currently, to aid touch perception for the blind, a team from Orbital Research and the American Printing Institute for the Blind has developed an electronic touchscreen that contains 2,400 equally spaced pins that can be adjusted to different heights. Variable height pins can depict geometric figures, pie charts, bar charts, a...
