ABSTRACT:
A system for generating and delivering various types of sensory effects to a fetus or so-called "fetal child" through a mother's abdomen and simultaneously allowing for the monitoring of the effects on the fetus. In a preferred embodiment, the system relies upon the generation of light of various intensities, wavelengths or color to provide certain types of stimulation to the fetus. Vibrations or magnetic effects can also be transmitted across the abdomen wall of the mother to the fetus. The system utilizes a belt which is worn about the abdomen of the mother and includes transducers located in the region of the fetal child for imparting the desired sensory effect. A stethoscope or like device can be mounted in and carried by the belt and is designed for juxtaposition to the abdomen and in proximity to the fetus. The stethoscope head piece can be worn by the mother to determine the effects of the stimulus on the fetus.
