Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve safety of operation in the deep sea by converting a signal of a pressure into a wave motion such as a sound wave and utilizing the auditory sense. CONSTITUTION:In case the hydraulic pressure 1 is applied to the pressure sensor 1, the sensor 2 senses the pressure via watertight rubber 8 and sends its output to a pressure identifier 3. The pressure identifier 3 decides the strength of the pressure and sends the result to a speech synthesizer 5 as an identification signal 9. The speech synthesizer 5 accesses a voice memory circuit 4 to obtain a necessary voice signal according to the contents of the identification signal 9 and outputs the obtained voice signal from an underwater speaker 6 as a voice 7. As the voice 7, it is preferable that for instance, words such as now, the depth of water is 10m are predetermined. In this way, the auditory sense of a skin-diver can be utilized and the safety of the operation in the deep sea is improved.

The pressure is sensed through the pressure discriminator 3 and its output is sent to the pressure discriminator 3. The pressure discriminator 8 determines the strength of the pressure and sends the result to the speech synthesizer 5 as an identification signal 9. The audio synthesizer 5 accesses the audio memory circuit 4 to obtain a necessary audio signal according to the content of the identification signal 9, and outputs the obtained audio signal from the underwater speaker 6 as an audio signal. As the voice 7, a term such as ``Right now, the water depth is Loll'' may be determined in advance.
