Abstract

In various embodiments, methods, systems, and mobile platforms are provided for providing auditory guidance. In certain exemplary embodiments, a method includes receiving information pertaining to a guidance task to provide auditory guidance proximate a location or target for a platform; selecting, via a processor, a plurality of transducers proximate the location or target, the plurality of transducers including: a first transducer disposed on a first side of the location or target; and a second transducer disposed on a second side of the location or target, opposite the first side; and controlling, via the processor, the plurality of transducers to provide auditory signals, such that the first transducer and the second transducer produce respective auditory signals that are phase cancelled with respect to one another, to thereby provide the auditory guidance to the location or target.

Description

technical field [0001] The technical field relates generally to the field of vehicles and other platforms, and more particularly to systems and methods for auditory guidance and signaling for vehicles and other platforms. Background technique [0002] Many vehicles and other platforms include doors, other entrances, paths, and / or other locations to which individuals may be directed, such as car doors, building doors, hallways or other paths, and the like. However, in certain circumstances, for example, if the individual is visually impaired and / or if conditions of visibility are unfavorable in the vicinity of the location (for example, if dust, fog, smoke and / or other conditions may limit visibility), It may then be difficult for individuals to view the location. [0003] Accordingly, it is desirable to provide methods and systems for vehicles and / or other platforms that provide auditory guidance and / or signaling to direct individuals to desired locations, such as doors, ot...
