An apparatus (100) for processing reproducible data comprises a receiving unit (103) adapted to receive reproducible data in a given order, and a processing unit (104) adapted to generate altered reproducible data by altering at least one property of received reproducible data in an at least partially random manner, wherein the alteration of at least one property is perceivable by a human sense when the altered reproducible data are reproduced in the given order.

The invention relates to a computerized portable handheld means (10) with a screen (16) for the display of objects (19) to be manipulated, and a method therefore. It has two type of means for manipulation; one for a hand holding it, and one when it is placed on another surface. A tactile providing means provides a tactile feedback to a hand holding a pointing means (20) when manipulating an object (19). It thus provides an enhanced browsing through available objects (19) by the use of at least the two human senses seeing and feeling.

The invention provides an air conditioner. The air conditioner comprises a shell body (10) and a plurality of rotating wheels (20) arranged at the bottom of the shell body (10); the air conditioner further comprises a human sensing detection part (30), a driving mechanism and a controller, wherein the human sensing detection part (30) is arranged on the outer wall of the shell body (10) and used for monitoring radiation of a user in the environment where the air conditioner is used, and outputting the data; the driving mechanism is arranged in the shell body (10) and is connected with the rotating wheels (20) in a driving mode; and the controller is electrically connected with the human sensing detection part (30) and the driving mechanism, and the controller is used for determining the moving track of the air conditioner in the environment wherein the air conditioner is used according to the data transferred by the human sensing detection part (30), and controlling the driving mechanism to drive the rotating wheels (20) to move along the moving track. According to the technical scheme, the air conditioner effectively solves the problem that in the prior art, idler wheels are arranged at the bottom of an air conditioner, the air conditioner needs to be manually moved in the moving process and consequently time waste, labor waste and inflexibility are caused during moving.

Utilizing an electronic means to assist in a sensory and situational awareness deficit setting is the prime function of the invention. With the advent of low voltage, miniature and very economical proximity sensing devices, opportunities to employ those devices to substitute or assist the human senses have resulted in the invention. Requiring only the sense of touch, a person will be alerted of the presence of inanimate and warm bodied objects while simultaneously tracking and conveying their distance. By applying the invention in settings experiencing various forms of visual impairment, the user will more safely traverse through obscure territories without collision into nearby objects. Applying various methods of proximity and motion detection will increase the reliability of the apparatus, with enhanced configurations able to distinguish between types of detected objects as well as increase precision in a range of environments. Low cost components, having minimal numbers of components per unit, and ease of assembly increases accessibility to and applications for the invention to include casual, sport, disability, personal security, military, and scientific. The invention is manufactured in miniature form, and as an assembly of multiple units it will create a pattern of tactile alerts representing the direction of different objects within the detection range. Transforming a visual event into a tactile response is how the invention has created a method of proximity detection and alerts which remedy the experience of reduced awareness to the presence of objects, persons, or animals.

The present invention relates to sensory feedback for non-contact electrical switching systems. Such systems may be used in conventional electrical circuits or in traditionally non-electrical switching systems, such as faucets. The non-contact electrical switching mechanism includes a motion sensor to detect motion for the purpose of changing between an on and an off state. The sensory feedback system is physically disposed on the non-contact electrical switching mechanism in proximity to the motion sensor and is configured to transmit sensory data corresponding to the current state of the non-contact switching mechanism. Sensory data is data which is received by one or more of the five human senses. The sensory data may include continuous, responsive, and / or synchronized sensory feedback. It will be appreciated that teachings of the present invention may be applied to other forms of human interface non-contact switching mechanisms such as those responding and / or detecting human generated sound, thoughts, etc.

The invention provides an energy-saving type automatic control system used for classroom illumination. According to the system, the classroom lamps are divided into a blackboard lamp region and a studying region according to different functional regions, and intelligent regulation and control is performed according to different light requirements of the functional regions. The system comprises a human sensing module, an illumination intensity detection module, a display module, a central control unit module, a relay module, a time module, a curtain control module, a Wi-Fi module and a dimming control module. By virtue of the energy-saving type automatic control system, automatic power off can be realized without manpower supervision, so that electric energy can be saved; and the illumination intensity in the classroom can be maintained to be close to a standard value by controlling the lamplight intensity in the classroom to enable the illuminance on desk surfaces in the classroom to be uniform, reasonable, effective and soft, thereby reducing influence of obvious change of light rays and uneven illumination to the vision of students.
