PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a massage device capable of eliminating response delay by a simple configuration and attaining synchronization between music tempo and vibrator vibration.SOLUTION: The massage device comprises: a rhythm extraction part 28 which acquires an acoustic signal in response to an input of a drive command signal and extracts the rhythm of the desired frequency band of the acoustic signal and a drive control part 24 which causes vibrators V1 to V3 to operate in accordance with the rhythm acquired by the rhythm extraction part 28. The drive control part 24 causes the vibrators V1 to V3 even when the acoustic signal is silent, while the drive command signal is inputted. As a result of this, the response delay of the vibrator can be eliminated.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2018,JPO&INPIT【課題】簡単な構成で応答遅れを解消し、音楽のテンポとバイブレータの振動を同期させることが可能なマッサージ装置を提供する。【解決手段】駆動指令信号の入力に応じて音響信号を取得し、該音響信号の所望周波数帯域のリズムを抽出するリズム抽出部28と、リズム抽出部28で取得したリズムに合わせてバイブレータV1~V3を作動させる駆動制御部24を備える。駆動制御部24は、駆動指令信号の入力中には、音響信号が無音状態でもバイブレータV1~V3を作動させる。その結果、バイブレータの応答遅れを解消することができる。【選択図】図1
