Abstract
An electro-mechanical-acoustic transducing device includes: an electro-mechanical-acoustic transducer which has at least one resonance frequency, for converting an input electric signal into only vibration, or into both vibration and sound; a signal supplying unit for supplying a signal in a frequency band which includes at least one of the resonance frequencies of the electro-mechanical-acoustic transducer as the input signal of the electro-mechanical-acoustic transducer; and a frequency detector for detecting a signal component having a frequency corresponding to the mechanical resonance frequency of the electro-mechanical-acoustic transducer in an electric signal which is output from the electro-mechanical-acoustic transducer, and outputting the signal component as a part of an input signal to the signal supplying unit.
