    摘要: The invention relates to a method of conveying information to the nervous system of a person without using audio-visual channels of perception. The method includes coding information into tactually perceived signals and teaching a person to identify these signals, the initial information being disintegrated into separate streams and each of the streams being coded as a sequence of discreet codes, the codes of every stream being transmitted to separate fixed points of a person skin, and during the process of teaching the person acquires the capacity to synthesise the received signals into the final information adequate to the initial one.
    The initial information is being coded with electrical signals with different frequency and/or amplitude characteristics of voltage and/or current intensity, mechanical vibration signals and different amplitude and/or frequency and/or localisation and thermal signals, the duration of codes and time intervals between them being varied and the extent of disintegration of the initial information is being controlled.
    The invention makes possible to create the systems of artificial vision and hearing and also to create an absolutely new system of informational interchange between a machine and a person which can be applied for non-audio-visual monitoring of the work of a machine and its controlling with the purpose of crating non-audio-visual system of communication, creating adaptive artificial limbs, etc. The distinctive feature of the invention is non-invasive character of its realisation, i.e. this method does not require surgical invasion which makes it possible to apply the invention to both the healthy and the disabled people, needing rehabilitating devices.

    摘要: The method includes disintegration of the initial information into separate streams, coding each stream as a sequence of signals and transmitting the signals of each stream to the separate fixed areas situated on the integument of a person forming in total skin sensitive information zone, the function of coding being cyclically changed in the process of conveying information, i.e. conveying the visual information is carried out with electrical signals discretely frame by frame with cyclical frame by frame changing the dependence of current intensity and/or voltage of signals from the brightness of corresponding fragments of the frames ensuring integration of perceiving frames within the limits of a cycle with choosing time characteristics of the cycles; the dependence of current intensity and/or voltage of the signals from the brightness of the corresponding fragment is direct in a part of the cycle (positive frames) and is inverse in the other part of the cycle (negative frames), the number of the positive cycles can be more or less than that of the negative ones, the frequency of the signals' current in the negative and positive fragments of the cycle may be different.

    摘要: The invention pertains to methods of transmitting information to the human nervous system in a manner which circumvents the audio-visual perception pathways. The method involves encoding information to produce tactile signals and training a human subject to recognise those signals. The primary information is broken down into individual streams each of which is encoded in the form of a discrete code chain. The codes of each stream are transmitted to individual fixed sites on the subject's skin; the subject in the course of a training process is taught to synthesise the signals received to form final information equivalent to the primary information. The primary information is encoded with electrical signals with voltages and/or currents of differing frequency and/or amplitude characteristics, mechanical vibration signals of differing amplitudes and/or frequencies and/or locations, and heat signals; the duration of the codes and of the intervals between them is varied, and the degree to which the primary information is broken down is adjusted. The invention facilitates the creation of an artificial sight or hearing system, and also of a fundamentally novel system of exchanging information between machines and humans which can be used for non-audio-visual monitoring of a machine's operation and for control purposes, or for creating a non-audio-visual communication system, for adaptive limb prostheses, etc. The unique feature of the invention is its non-invasive character, i.e. it requires no surgical intervention and can thus be used for healthy individuals and for those requiring aids.
