36、 159, Ergonomics, Subcommittee SC 5, Ergonomics of the physical environment.DIN EN ISO 24504:2016-12 EN ISO 24504:2016 (E) 4 IntroductionToday, people conduct their daily lives along with spoken announcements from various products such as home electrical appliances, information and telecommunication
37、 products, office-automation equipment, heating equipment, toys, sanitary equipment, and health care products. Some products use spoken announcements to provide instructions in indoor and outdoor public areas such as ticket vending machines, elevators, and escalators. Public address systems are ofte
38、n installed to provide spoken announcements. Such announcements can be indistinct to listeners because of hearing loss that can occur with ageing or because of ambient noise in the surroundings.This International Standard specifies methods for determining an appropriate sound level range of spoken a
39、nnouncements so that all listeners, including people with age-related hearing loss, can hear them properly against ambient noises. This sound level range specification was determined based on results of experiments in which people of different ages participated. Spoken announcements for which sound
40、pressure levels are within the range specified in this International Standard are expected to be audible and comfortably loud for most users in the presence of ambient noise.This International Standard is intended to be applied as necessary to products depending on the product type and its condition
41、s of use. It does not apply to spoken announcements used for evacuation or emergency purposes.ISO 9921 specifies recommended levels of speech-communication quality necessary for conveying comprehensive messages in different applications. Therefore, ISO 9921 differs from this International Standard.T
42、his International Standard adopts the principles of accessible design from ISO/IEC Guide 71, which are amplified in ISO/TR 22411.DIN EN ISO 24504:2016-12 EN ISO 24504:2016 (E) 5 1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies methods to determine an appropriate sound pressure level range for spoken ann
43、ouncements in environments where ambient noise is less than 80 dB. The specified methods follow the concepts of ISO/IEC Guide 71 and includes consideration of older persons with decreased hearing ability to determine sound pressure levels of spoken announcements. The spokenspeech levels that are spe
44、cified in this International Standard are for products and public-address systems. To improve the accessibility and usability of products, spoken announcements must not only be audible but also presented at comfortable speech levels.The target products that present spoken announcements are consumer
45、products such as electronic home appliances, information and communication technology services, and products providing services for general users in public facilities indoors and outdoors such as train stations, airports, meeting rooms, amusement parks, and fairs.This International Standard is not a
46、pplicable to products providing private information such as automated teller machines in public spaces.This International Standard is applicable when a loudspeaker producing a spoken announcement is located a short distance from the user in an environment where the sound pressure level with a standa
47、rd frequency weighting A of ambient noise does not exceed 80 dB. This International Standard is applicable to spoken announcements that are audible to persons with normal hearing for their age when presented by a target product under quiet and anechoic conditions. This International Standard is appl
48、icable for both recorded voice and synthetic speech announcements.This International Standard does not specify sound pressure levels of spoken announcements for systems with automatic sound pressure level control to compensate for fluctuating ambient noise levels. This International Standard is not applicable to spoken announcements heard through headphones or earphones, or to spoken announcements heard with the ear close to the sp
