Abstract
A relaxation device includes an enclosure, a linear vibrator, at least one processing device, and a power source. The linear vibrator is positioned in the enclosure and is configured to impart a uniaxial force on at least a portion of the enclosure. The processing device is in electrical communication with the linear vibrator and is configured to control operation of the linear vibrator. The power source is in the enclosure and electrically connected with the processing device and the linear vibrator.
Claims15
A relaxation device comprising:
- an enclosure configured to rest on a person's sternum or be held in a person's hand, the enclosure including an upper shell and a lower shell made from a rigid plastic or metal;
- a linear vibrator mounted in the enclosure and positioned within the enclosure to impart a uniaxial force on a portion of the lower shell made from the rigid plastic or metal to provide a haptic sensation, wherein the linear vibrator has a root mean square acceleration of at least 0.2 grms for every 200 mW of power consumed by the linear vibrator;
- at least one processing device in electrical communication with the linear vibrator, the at least one processing device being configured to control operation of the linear vibrator;
- and
- a power source in the enclosure and electrically connected with the at least one processing device and the linear vibrator.
