Abstract

The present invention relates to the technical field of physiotherapeutic apparatuses and devices for locating or stimulating reflex points in the body of a patient. Specifically, it provides a sensory band comprising a frame having two arched arms, two antennas, a pair of ultrasonic transducers, three vibrators, and a microcontroller operatively connected to said pair of ultrasonic transducers, and to said three vibrators. The present invention further provides a method for obstacle detection that comprises said sensory band, wherein said method comprises the steps of transmitting an ultrasonic wave by means of said pair of ultrasonic transducers; measuring the reflection of said ultrasonic wave by means of said pair of ultrasonic transducers; providing vibrations to said three vibrators, from the reflection characteristics of said ultrasonic wave; wherein said vibration varies depending on the reflection characteristics of said ultrasonic wave.
