1. A somatic sense induction system using air plasma, the system comprising:
- a laser radiation device for controlling parameters of a laser and generating the air plasma at one point in air by radiating the laser at the one point in the air;
a lens for inducing the generation of the air plasma by focusing the laser radiated from the laser radiation device on the one point in the air;
an information collection unit for collecting biological information of a driver or driving information of a vehicle; and
a drowsiness determination unit for receiving the biological information of a driver or the driving information of a vehicle and determining whether the driver is in a drowsy state,wherein a shock wave and an electric field generated by the air plasma induce a state change in a medium existing in an area affected by the shock wave and the electric field, andwherein if it is determined by the drowsiness determination unit that the driver is in a drowsy state, the laser radiation device generates air plasma by radiating a pulse laser at a point around the driver.

Abstract
A system and method for generating air plasma by radiating a laser in the air, and making a user feel a somatic sense such as a tactile sense, a thermal sense or the like using a principle of inducing a state change in a medium as a result of a shock wave or an electric field generated by the air plasma.

10. A somatic sense induction system using air plasma, the system comprising:
-
a laser radiation device for controlling parameters of a laser and generating the air plasma at one point in air by radiating the laser at the one point in the air; a lens for inducing the generation of the air plasma by focusing the laser radiated from the laser radiation device on the one point in the air; a camera for photographing a user; a motion detection unit for receiving an image photographed by the camera and detecting a motion of the user; and a position detection unit for receiving motion information of the motion detection unit and detecting a position where the motion of the user is generated, wherein a shock wave and an electric field generated by the air plasma induce a state change in a medium existing in an area affected by the shock wave and the electric field, and wherein the laser radiation device generates air plasma by radiating a pulse laser at a point around a position where the motion of the user is performed. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
