Zusammenfassung: | It is disclosed a garment (1) of the type comprising fabric (2) and at least one seam (4), said garment (1) comprising at least one vibrotactile actuator (3) configured for producing a vibrational pattern (19) based on audio and/or messaging information provided by an information signal (17) coming from an external device (10) wherein said at least one vibrotactile actuator (3) is contained within said at least one seam (4). It is also disclosed a system (100), a circuit (30) and a method for transmitting audio and/or messaging information to a user. The system comprises the garment, the external device (10), and a conversion unit (33) comprising a microcontroller (34) configured for converting the audio and/or messaging information into a driving signal to be provided to said at least one vibrotactile actuator (3). The circuit (30) comprises the microcontroller (34) and the vibrotactile actuators (3) that are coupled to one another by a ribbon (7) of a flexible material. The method comprises a step of evaluating the delay between the vibrational pattern (19) produced by said at least one vibrotactile actuator (3) and acoustic and/or visual signals (12, 18) produced by the external device on the basis of the audio and/or messaging information. |
