For an operation of the electronic system 1, please refer to fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a process 2 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Scheme 2 comprises the following steps:
step S200: and starting.
Step S202: measuring the physiological signal of the user.
Step S204: an audio setting is determined based on the measured physiological signal.
Step S206: adjusting the audio signal according to the determined audio setting to generate an audio output signal.
Step S208: an audio output signal is played.
Step S210: and (6) ending.
According to the process 20, in step S202, the physiological signal sensor 10 can measure a physiological signal of a user when the electronic system 1 is in operation.
Next, in step S204, the processing circuit 20 determines an audio setting according to the physiological signal measured by the physiological signal sensor 10. For example, if the physiological signal sensor 10 is a electroencephalograph and the measured physiological signal is a brain wave signal. The processing circuit 20 can determine an audio setting according to the measured brain wave signals of the physiological signal sensor 10.
For example, the processing circuit 20 may determine an audio setting according to the amplitude of the electroencephalogram signal measured by the physiological signal sensor 10. Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of an electroencephalogram signal according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 3, the electroencephalogram signal exhibits different amplitude variations according to the current state of the user. When the user is in a relaxed state, the amplitude of the brain wave signal is less than or equal to a threshold value (TH 1). When the user is in a normal waking state, the amplitude of the brain wave signal is between the threshold TH1 and the threshold TH 2. When the user is in a state of concentration or tension, the amplitude of the brain wave signal is greater than or equal to the threshold TH 2. In step S204, the processing circuit 20 may compare the amplitude of the brain wave signal with the threshold TH1 and the threshold TH 2. In one embodiment, when the processing circuit 20 determines that the amplitude of the brain wave signal is less than or equal to the threshold TH1 (e.g., between time T3 and time T4), the processing circuit 20 selects an equalizer (equalizer) setting EQ1 as the audio setting, and the processing circuit 20 transmits a first audio setting selection signal to the audio processing circuit 30 to instruct the audio processing circuit 30 to process the audio signal with the equalizer setting EQ 1. In another embodiment, when the processing circuit 20 determines that the amplitude of the brain wave signal is between the threshold TH1 and the threshold TH2 (e.g., between time T0 and time T1 or between time T2 and time T3), the processing circuit 20 selects an equalizer setting EQ2 as the audio setting. Then, the processing circuit 20 sends a second audio setting selection signal to the audio processing circuit 30 to instruct the audio processing circuit 30 to process the audio signal with the equalizer setting EQ 2. In yet another embodiment, when the processing circuit 20 determines that the amplitude of the brain wave signal is greater than or equal to the threshold TH2 (e.g., between time T1 and time T2), the processing circuit 20 selects an equalizer setting EQ3 as the audio setting. Then, the processing circuit 20 sends a third audio setting selection signal to the audio processing circuit 30 to instruct the audio processing circuit 30 to process the audio signal with the equalizer setting EQ 3.
In step S206, the audio processing circuit 30 receives an audio signal. In response to the audio setting determined by the processing circuit 20, the audio processing circuit 30 adjusts the audio signal according to the audio setting determined by the processing circuit 20 to generate an audio output signal. For example, the storage device 50 stores a plurality of different audio settings. The audio processing circuit 30 can read the audio setting determined by the processing circuit 20 from the storage device 50, and accordingly adjust the audio signal to generate an audio output signal corresponding to the audio setting. For example, the storage device 50 stores equalizer settings EQ 1-EQ 3. Referring to fig. 4 to 6, fig. 4 to 6 are schematic diagrams of equalizer settings EQ1 to EQ3 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Each equalizer is set to have a different volume (or gain) setting at different frequencies. Different equalizer settings will bring different sound playing effects to the user and also bring more music enjoyment. For example, as shown in fig. 4, the equalizer setting EQ1 shown in fig. 4 enhances the sound volume (sound pressure level) of the high-pitch frequency range, compared to the equalizer setting EQ2 shown in fig. 5. That is, the volume of the treble frequency range of the equalizer setting EQ1 may be greater than the volume of the treble frequency range of the equalizer setting EQ 2. As shown in fig. 6, the equalizer setting EQ3 of fig. 6 enhances the volume in the bass frequency range compared to the equalizer setting EQ2 of fig. 5. That is, the volume of the bass frequency range of the equalizer setting EQ3 will be greater than the volume of the equalizer setting EQ2 bass frequency range. In this case, when the audio setting determined by the processing circuit 20 is the equalizer setting EQ1, the audio processing circuit 30 may use the equalizer setting EQ1 to adjust the audio signal to generate an audio output signal corresponding to the equalizer setting EQ 1. When the audio setting determined by the processing circuit 20 is the equalizer setting EQ2, the audio processing circuit 30 may use the equalizer setting EQ2 to adjust the audio signal to produce an audio output signal corresponding to the equalizer setting EQ2, and so on.
In step S208, the audio output device 40 receives the audio output signal from the audio processing circuit 30 and plays the sound to the user for listening according to the audio output signal. In short, when the user is resting meditation and is in a relaxed state, the processing circuit 20 of the present invention determines that the amplitude of the brain wave signal is less than or equal to the threshold TH1 and selects the equalizer setting EQ1 as the audio setting. Audio processing circuit 30 processes the audio signal with equalizer setting EQ1 to produce an audio output signal corresponding to equalizer setting EQ 1. In this case, the sound field effect heard by the user can enhance the response output of the medium and high audio frequencies, so as to bring crisp and vivid sound field feeling. When the user is in a normal wake-up state while listening to broadcast music, the processing circuit 20 determines that the amplitude of the brain wave signal is between the threshold TH1 and the threshold TH2 and selects the equalizer setting EQ2 as the audio setting. Audio processing circuit 30 then processes the audio signal with equalizer setting EQ2 to produce an audio output signal corresponding to equalizer setting EQ 2. At this time, the sound stage effect heard by the user is a nearly flat sound frequency response output without any modification. When the user is playing an online game while being under attentive stress, the processing circuit 20 determines that the amplitude of the brain wave signal is greater than or equal to the threshold TH2 and selects the equalizer setting EQ3 as the audio setting. Audio processing circuit 30 processes the audio signal with equalizer setting EQ3 to produce an audio output signal corresponding to equalizer setting EQ 3. At this time, the sound field effect heard by the user has the effect of strengthening the volume output in the middle and low frequency range to bring the sound field feeling of the soundness and the strength. In other words, the present invention can dynamically adjust the sound field effect of the sound in real time according to the current state of the user, thereby providing better listening experience for the user.
On the other hand, in step S206, the processing circuit 20 may further generate a control signal to control the indicating device 60 to generate the prompt signal after determining the equalizer setting, so as to inform the user of the current audio setting status. For example, the user may be notified by generating a notification signal in various ways (e.g., light, text, sound, voice, or vibration). In this way, in step S208, while the audio output device 40 plays the sound corresponding to the equalizer setting for the user to listen, the user can also know the audio setting currently used by the electronic system in real time through the indication of the indicating device 60. In one embodiment, the indicating device 60 can be a Light source device, wherein the Light source device can include a Light Emitting Diode (LED), an Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED), a micro-LED (μ LED), or any other device capable of Emitting Light. Referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a schematic diagram illustrating an operation of an indicating device 60 according to an embodiment of the invention. As shown in part (a) of fig. 7, after determining that the audio setting is the equalizer setting EQ1, the processing circuit 20 generates a first control signal to control the indicating device 60 to generate a blue light signal to inform the user that the current audio setting is the equalizer setting EQ 1. As shown in part (b) of fig. 7, after determining the audio setting EQ2, the processing circuit 20 generates a second control signal to control the indicating device 60 to generate a green light signal to inform the user that the current audio setting is EQ 2. As shown in part (c) of fig. 7, after determining the audio setting EQ3, the processing circuit 20 generates a third control signal to control the indicating device 60 to generate a red light signal to inform the user that the current audio setting is EQ 3. In addition, the light emitting manner of the light source device of the indicating device 60 may be a continuous display and/or a blinking display, so as to enhance the user experience.
The steps and/or processes described above, including the suggested steps, can be implemented by hardware, software, firmware (a combination of hardware and computer instructions and data embodied in hardware and readable software on a hardware device), an electronic system, or a combination thereof. The processes and embodiments described above may be compiled into program code or instructions and stored in the storage device 50. The processing circuit 20 and the audio processing circuit 30 can be used for reading and executing program codes or instructions from the storage device 50 to realize the above functions.
In summary, the electronic system of the present invention can dynamically adjust the sound field effect of the sound in real time according to the current state of the user, thereby providing better listening experience for the user. In addition, when the sound set by the corresponding equalizer is played and listened by the user, the user can also know the audio setting adopted by the current electronic system in real time through the indication of the indicating device.
