Description
La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour synchroniser / désynchrnniscr des impulsions sonores et lumineuses en enregistrant sur support audio, avec les impulsions sonores, les impulsions lumineuses sous forme de signaux audio basses fréquences, et cn utilisant sur la sortie sonore de l'appareil de restitution un filtre passe-bas pour faire clignoter des diodes lumineuses. The present invention relates to a device for synchronizing / desynchronizing sound and light pulses by recording on audio medium, with the sound pulses, the light pulses in the form of low frequency audio signals, and cn using on the sound output of the reproduction apparatus. a low-pass filter for flashing light-emitting diodes.
Cette fonction est actuellement remplie par des appareils électroniques appelés généralement ''synthétiseurs d'ondes cérébrales" qui génèrent des impulsions sonores et lumineuses contrôlées par microprocesseur. This function is currently fulfilled by electronic devices generally called "brain wave synthesizers" which generate sound and light pulses controlled by microprocessor.
Les boîtiers de ce type sont généralement encombrants, lourds et d'un pnx de revient élévé du fait de la complexité et du nombre important de composants électroniques. D'autre part ils ne permettent pas la synchronisation avec d'autres procédés sonores thérapeuthiques (de t,'pe battements bineuraux, altemophonie, inductions vocales...) ou bien la synchronisation avec de la musique. Enclosures of this type are generally bulky, heavy and have a high cost price due to the complexity and the large number of electronic components. On the other hand they do not allow synchronization with other therapeutic sound processes (t, 'eg bineural beats, altemophony, vocal inductions ...) or synchronization with music.
Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients en réduisant considérablement la partie électronique et en permettant le mixage avec d'autres sources sonores sur lesupport audio. Il consiste en effet selon une première caractéristique, à l'enregistrement sur support audio des impulsions sonores synchronisées avec les impulsions lumineuses, ces demières etant codées sous forme de signaux audio basses Fréquences inaudibles. La partie réceptrice du dispositif, branchée sur la source sonore en parallèle avec un casque audio ou des écouteurs, est un circuit électronique trés simple .Il se compose d'un circuit filtre passe-bas couplé à un ampli opCratlonnel monté cn compacteur (chaque phase des sons basses fréquences devenant une impulsion électrique) pour déclencher le clignotement de diodes lumineuses fixées sur un support de type lunettes en face des yeux. The device according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks by considerably reducing the electronic part and by allowing mixing with other sound sources on the audio support. According to a first characteristic, it consists in the recording on audio medium of the sound pulses synchronized with the light pulses, the latter being coded in the form of low audio signals. Inaudible frequencies. The receiving part of the device, connected to the sound source in parallel with a headset or earphones, is a very simple electronic circuit. It consists of a low-pass filter circuit coupled to an opCratlonnel amplifier mounted in a compactor (each phase low frequency sounds becoming an electrical impulse) to trigger the flashing of light diodes fixed on a support like glasses in front of the eyes.
Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation - les impulsions sonores et visuelles peuvent être synchronisées à l'enregistrement avec d'autres stimulis auditifs (de type battements binauraux ou altemophome) - les impulsions sonores et vlsuelles peuvent être synchronisées à l'enregistrement avec de la musique. According to particular embodiments - the sound and visual impulses can be synchronized with the recording with other auditory stimuli (of binaural beat type or altemophome) - the sound and visual pulses can be synchronized with the recording with music .
- les écouteurs audio peuvent être foxés sur le support.- the audio headphones can be foxed on the support.
- le circuit électronique sans les diodes peut être monté dans un boîtier et inséré entre le support et la source sonore. - the electronic circuit without the diodes can be mounted in a box and inserted between the support and the sound source.
- le cable d'alimentation branché en parallèle sur la source sonore avec le casque ou les écouteurs audio peut être remplacé par un microphone (par exemple piezzo) pour utilisation sans casque. Un simple système de restitution sonore sur enceintes acoustiques fait ainsi clignoter les diodes.- the power cable connected in parallel to the sound source with the headphones or the audio earphones can be replaced by a microphone (for example piezzo) for use without headphones. A simple sound reproduction system on loudspeakers makes the LEDs flash.
- le support d'enregistrement peut être audio (cassettes, cassettes numénques, compactsdiscs...) ou multimédia (cassettes vidéo, CD ROM, CDL..)
