Abstract

An audible distance measurer object-face discriminator cognition stimulant system device housed in a handheld shaft, walking stick, belt attachment, or portable housing. The system device will capture, detect, merge, convert, process, compute and/or synthesize signals, measurements, images, objects-faces, colors, and shapes to output assistive phrases and measurements in electronic voice, to inform and make the user knowledgeable of objects and aware of surroundings and environment directly in path of movement-direction pointed, comprising in combination strategically positioned signal receivers, transmitters or satellite, embedded distance measurer sensor, digital video camera, cellular phone, radio, electronic travel aid (ETA), electronic orientation aid (EOA), position locator device (PLD), embedded restroom facility locator sensor, and embedded vehicle presence alert system (VPAS) sensor, which will generally aid sighted and visually impaired students, teachers and students of the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act, and more particularly, the elderly, and visually impaired military war veterans in a Right to Personal Privacy, while simultaneously providing sighted and blind-visually impaired children with an educational toy and interactive game.

Claims

1. An audible distance measurer object-face discriminator cognition stimulant system device housed in a handheld shaft, walking stick, belt attachment, or portable housing, which outputs assistive phrases and measurements in feet, inches, or meters, in electronic voice comprising of:

a) a shaft with embedded object-face recognition video camera;

b) said shaft having embedded distance measurer sensor to pointer end attached thereon;

c} said shaft having embedded GPS locator sensor attached thereon;

d} said shaft having embedded vehicle presence alert system (VPAS) sensor attached thereon;

e) said shaft having embedded restroom-building facility locator sensor attached thereon;

f} said shaft having radio and cellular phone attached therein;

g} said shaft having earphone jack and battery recharging portals attached thereon;

h) said shaft having speaker attached thereon;

i} said shaft having wrist strap attached thereon;

j} said shaft having on/off switch attached thereon;

k} said shaft having radio station selection control attached thereon;

1) said shaft having synthesizer, computer, converter, or processor attached therein;

2. A system device according to claim 1, having a synthesizer, computer, converter, or processor for allowing captured images of an object and measured distance to an object to merge and output as an assistive phrase in electronic voice, attached therein;

3. A system device according to claim 1, and further comprising, having in combination a transmitter adapted for an emergency vehicle such that a vehicle will transmit a signal, and whereas system device VPAS sensor embedded and attached thereon will detect that signal, thus causing synthesizer, computer or processor attached therein to output the phrase “

emergency vehicle approaching the vicinity,”

in electronic voice there from.

4. A system device according to claim 1, and further comprising, having in combination a transmitter adapted for a building with a restroom such that a building location will transmit a signal, and whereas system device restroom-building locator sensor will detect that signal, thus causing synthesizer, computer, or processor attached therein to output a phrase having the location-direction and distance to that building with a restroom, in electronic voice there from.
