1289202 Holography PERKIN-ELMER CORP 21 April 1970 [25 April 1969] 19000/70 Heading G2J [Also in Division G4] Sound is optically analyzed by spatially modulating a beam of coherent radiation according to information contained in a sound, comparing the modulated beam with a number of records, and producing an output indicative of a match between the modulated beam and one of the records. A spoken digit 0-9 to be recognized is passed from a microphone 10 to a frequency analyzer 11, the intensity of each of a number of frequencies being recorded electrostatically in a respective longitudinal channel of a continuously-moving dielectric tape 22. A series of intensities on each of the channels are tapped simultaneously by a light modulator 13, each intensity causing a respective electrode 26 to deflect (to an extent depending on the intensity value) a respective area of a reflecting membrane 23. Coherent light from a laser 14, expanded by a lens system 30 and passed via a beam-splitter 15, is reflected from the membrane 23 and thus modulated in phase, then passed to the beam-splitter 15, lens 31, hologram 32, lens 33, and array of masks 34. The hologram 32 produces an image on each of the masks 34 which correspond to digits 0-9 respectively. Only one mask produces an output from a respective photocell 36 which exceeds a threshold. The invention may also be used for speech defect diagnosis, speaker identification, or acoustic signature analysis of non-human sounds. (For figure see next page) |
