Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram of a voice guidance system according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an embodiment of a system using an ID signal. FIG. 3 shows an ID input timing chart of the solid-state recorder, and FIG. 4 shows an ID output timing chart of the ID transmitting apparatus.

As shown in FIG. 1, an ID transmitting apparatus 10 mainly includes an ID setting unit 11, an ID modulation unit 12, an ID output unit 13,
It comprises an output request signal input unit 14 and an OSC 15. Reference numeral 40 denotes an external sensor. On the other hand, the solid-state recorder 20 includes an ID input detector 21 and an ID signal decoder 2.
2, a CPU 23, a control unit 24, a memory unit 25, an audio output unit 26, and an ID output request signal generation unit 27.

[0011] To explain this system by 2, the
As shown in FIG.
And the ID of each object 30 to be described
It is set in the transmitting device 10 and all the guidance contents corresponding to the ID are stored in the solid-state recorder 20 including the ID.
When the listener has the solid-state recorder 20, switches on the solid-state recorder 20 at the place of the object of interest 30 and starts up, a reproduction request signal f is input to the CPU 23 at the timing shown in FIG. An output enable signal g is output to the output request signal generation section 27, and I
The D request signal b is output.

The ID transmitting apparatus 10 starts to be activated by the ID request signal b or the ID request signal b output from the external sensor 40, outputs a transmission enable signal c to the OSC 15, and outputs an oscillation signal d for outputting the ID signal a. To start.
After the oscillation stabilization time has elapsed, the output request signal input unit 14
Outputs an output enable signal e to the ID output unit 13.
The ID output unit 13 continuously outputs the ID signal a while inserting the output interval time t in order to realize a low power consumption operation. Then, the CPU 23 outputs the ID input enable signal h to the ID input detection unit 21 for a certain period, and the ID input detection unit 21 waits for the input of the ID signal a.

The ID signal a output from the ID transmitting device 10 is transmitted at the timing shown in FIG.
The input detection unit 21 performs input detection, performs processing such as demodulation,
After being subjected to waveform shaping and decoding processing by the D signal decoding unit 22, it is taken into the CPU 23. CPU23
Reads the guidance data corresponding to the ID signal a from the memory unit 25 and sends the guidance data to the audio output unit 26. In the audio output unit 26, the digital audio data is processed by a digital filter, a D / A converter, or the like, and output to the outside as analog audio data, so that the listener can hear the guidance content through the headphone 50 (FIG. 2) or the like. It becomes possible.

Further, by providing the solid-state recorder 20 with basic functions (start, stop, fast forward, fast rewind, pause, etc.), the listener can freely select guidance information, and the information is not missed. .

It should be noted that the ID transmitter 10 has an ID using a battery.
Means for transmission, setting, etc. are integrated, and mounting means for attachment to the target site is provided.

[0016]

As described above, the present invention employs a system configuration using ID transmission / reception for reproducing and activating the guidance information, so that it can be freely carried and excellent in portability. Playback is possible by simply pressing the switch without being aware of anything in front of the object, and low power consumption
Thus, a voice guidance system device excellent in operability can be obtained.

In the ID transmitting device, a switch is used.
By using the activation and intermittent transmission method, there is an effect that power consumption can be reduced.
