Description of the invention: [Technical field to which the invention pertains] The present invention relates to a visually impaired person, in particular to a system for integrating a zebra crossing to guide a visually impaired person through a zebra crossing. [Prior Art] Eight straight in two! i live 'for example, 'going from home to the bus stop waiting for the A car, preparing for the road on the zizi road π, etc., for the general vision of 10 15 people may be a breeze, but for the visually impaired, However, it is a matter of a lot of articles. _Friends in life ^: weak = other sensory organs to detect their relative to the environment; set the basis for judging choices when they are away. In modern cities, the degree of traffic chaos has far exceeded the scope of self-processing. Peng left on the road. The government has a guide brick to guide visually impaired friends. However, (4) it is often visible that the roads are blocked by locomotives or other sundries. In addition, according to Wan Mingmei (2_); show that the domestic guide bricks sometimes lead the visually impaired to the danger zone, although =:, guide: brick still has a positive guiding role. If you go to a bad brother without a blind brick, the visually impaired will be at a loss. At this stage, it is very rare for the visually impaired to cross the road. The traffic intersection at the 20th district (such as Taipei City) is equipped with a switch button. When the switch is converted to a green light, it can be provided, but there is no paste. U informs the visually impaired. A small number of metropolitan areas and the green light fixtures of the Qiming School are equipped with touch slaves. When the visually impaired users press the button, they will make a sound in the green light state, prompting to use 4 201002912 ^ = more roads, but _ The interest rate and the number of seconds can't be strong, and the zebra crossing/direction has guidance' and the sound will interfere with the nearby home. 10 15 According to the research of Bingjieli (1999), the number set at the intersection is:, yes, normal operation', that is, the failure rate is 70%, and the damage rate is too high, causing the visually impaired to save money for the green; There is no uniform standard for Qian Zhuchun's voice. It is easy for the visually impaired to produce confusion in judgment. The study also pointed out that when visually impaired people cross the road, they mainly listen to the sound of vehicles (67%), "people are (4) (23%). Therefore, only a small number of visually impaired people rely on the aforementioned devices to ride through. When some of the Qing people cross the intersection, they still follow the situation of the vehicle's engine material or the sound of the stop, and the situation of the vehicle at the intersection is 'inferred from the pedestrian number to determine whether to cross the road. This way actually exists. There is a problem of considerable security. On the road, 'the road 4 and some of the sidewalks are not equipped with blind obstacles. It is impossible to guide the visually impaired to the starting point of the zebra crossing. It can only be explored by visually impaired friends based on experience or road vehicle sounds. In the environment to the intersection. The domestic patent bulletin (Announcement No.: 518965) has a voice guide device for providing visually impaired friends, and a color sensor is installed on the mirror to inform the red and green recording, but it is misunderstood. (5) It is impossible to provide high reliability. Another patent bulletin (Announcement No.: 563525) provides a traffic guide device, and the electromagnetic device is installed under the guide vane. When the transferer stands at the position and the green light When the shell is up, the electromagnetic principle can be used to communicate the visually impaired person with the cane or the sole, but there is no road information, green light seconds and direction guiding function. [Invention] 5 20 201002912 The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a whole person. The state 'and guides the visually impaired to safely cross the zebra crossing. The purpose of the invention is to provide a device for integrating traffic through the zebra crossing, including: a fixed-number device connected to the road, and a visually impaired device When the visually impaired person walks to the intersection near the traffic 10 15 20 == the mobile service device guides the visually impaired to approach the intersection; then, if the early passer needs to cross the road, then the fixed m is the second rt The start button of the road σ, the message from the father to the miscellaneous control box is transmitted to the mobile service device for reading the relevant number of obstacles, for viewing as a reference for the zebra crossing. When crossing the road, the visually impaired can press The control button on the next two-action service device activates the audio signal from the sounder, and the visually impaired person has the direction. #一灯的知[Implementation] The following is the best point for the details. The structure and special examples of the invention are described with reference to the following figures: = The figure shows the configuration state of a typical crossroad 4 in a certain place, == the road is a road, and the road in the horizontal direction is a △△ road. η, both sides have a sidewalk.

It is not detailed here. 36, as shown in the figure, set the transceiver on the pedestrian number 2G: &gt;: a direction of the sidewalk transmits a detection signal (the distance within the dotted line (for example, ten meters) is valid for it. Launching the scope 8 201002912, this "test" nickname contains the road message sigh at the intersection of the location - the visually impaired person equipped with the mobile service device 44 of the present invention advances from the S3 to the intersection 'as the visual barrier When the user enters the valid range of the detection signal, the transceiver 50 of the mobile service device 44 receives the 5-signal signal and transmits it to the microprocessor 46. The microprocessor n 46 gp will be in the storage device. 48 towel Sogou should test the road signal corresponding to the signal, and then control the system 54 to put the road message. For example: "〇〇路,△△路路口". When the visually impaired do not need to cross the road, I can ignore this message and move forward towards my destination. When the visually impaired need to cross the road, the Department of the 10th Department will require the visually impaired to go to the pedestrian number 2, as shown in the third picture. Here, the present invention provides two guiding functions. The first one The guiding function is: during the running, the user can press a certain control button 54 of the mobile service device 44, and the mobile service device 44 can detect the distance between the user and the transceiver on the pedestrian number 2 And inform the user. For example: "After the road and 15 △△ road intersection of eight meters", or guided by the frequency of the short humming sound. The first guiding function is: If the pedestrian number light 20 cannot be determined The user can press another control button 54 of the mobile service device 44. At this time, the transceiver 50 will send a specific signal, and the transceiver 36 on the pedestrian number 2 receives the signal. That is, it will be transmitted to the central processing unit 32, and the central unit 2 〇理益32 controls the speaker 38 on the pedestrian number 20 to emit an audio signal to guide the visually impaired toward the pedestrian number. After the pedestrian number 20, the driver is required to press the start button 40 or 42 on the pedestrian number lamp 20. First, the visually impaired person touches the message on the control button 4 or 42 'including the road message (eg, the road name of the braille) ) with the direction of the news 9 201002912 interest (such as arrow map _,, the obstacle To go Λ ^ ^ 疋 疋 的 以及 以及 。 ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ 视 视 视 视 视 视 视 视 视 视 视 视 视 视 视 视Under the start button 'and follow the arrow on it 5 10
