A vibroacoustic tactile device

A vibroacoustic tactile device comprises at least one vibroacoustic tactile panel. The, or each, vibroacoustic tactile panel comprises a vibroacoustic generating layer, a tactile surface, and a vibroacoustic transmission layer located between the vibroacoustic generating layer and the tactile surface. The vibroacoustic tactile device further comprises a signal delivery module 148 and at least one vibracoustic tactile transducers 152A, 152B or exciters 150A, 150B. The signal delivery module delivers an acoustic signal to the transducer(s)/exciter(s) and the transducer(s)/exciter(s) generate a vibroacoustic signal which is transmitted to the vibroacoustic generating layer. The generating layer may comprise a plurality of supports and may comprise a closed foam material, such as Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA). The transmission layer may comprise a wooden board and the tactile surface may be formed from TPE. The device may comprise a plurality of hingedly attached panels. Also disclosed is a method of transmitting a vibroacoustic signal onto a human body.
