The present invention provides a vibration detector device (1) suitable for use as a cochlear implant (12). The detector device (1) comprises a substrate (2) formed and arranged for supporting a plurality of resonator bars (4). The resonator bars (4) are of a uniform length and are supported at each end (6, 8) by the substrate material (2). Each of the resonator bars (4) has a distinct resonant frequency characteristic and is arranged with a piezoelectric generator to generate a signal in response to receiving a vibration which causes the resonator bar (4) to vibrate at its resonant frequency.

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de détection de vibration (1) conçu pour être utilisé comme implant cochléaire (12). Le dispositif de détection (1) comprend un substrat (2) formé et disposé de manière à supporter une pluralité de barres résonateur (4). Celles-ci (4) présentent une longueur uniforme et sont supportées à chaque extrémité (6, 8) par le substrat. Chaque barre résonateur (4) est dotée d'une caractéristique de fréquence de résonance distincte et est disposée avec un générateur piézoélectrique afin de produire un signal en réponse à une vibration reçue qui fait vibrer la barre résonateur (4) à sa fréquence de résonance.
