Abstract
A detection device provides a voice signal of a person and includes a light source, a first planar carrier medium, a second planar carrier medium, a sensor device, and an evaluation device. The first planar carrier medium includes an input coupling region and an output coupling region. The second planar carrier medium includes a light input coupling region and a light output coupling region. Light from the light source is emitted into the second planar carrier medium and output in the direction of a front neck region of the person, and the light reflected on the neck region is input into the first planar carrier medium and output out of the first planar carrier medium. The output light is detected by the sensor device which provides sensor data to the evaluation device which converts the sensor data into vibrational data and provides the voice signal.
