< method examples >

The embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for detecting a wearing state of an earphone, which may be implemented by the control system 100 shown in fig. 1. As shown in fig. 2, the method for detecting the wearing state of the earphone includes the following steps: step S2100 to step S2300.

Step S2100, when the wearing setting function of the headset is turned on, and when a user performs a first operation on the headset, acquiring a first data set collected by the plurality of first sensors, where the first data set includes a plurality of first signals output by the plurality of first sensors.

In this embodiment, a plurality of first sensors are disposed in the earphone, the plurality of first sensors are located in a contact area between the earphone and the human ear, and the detection position corresponding to each first sensor is different. The plurality of first sensors are used for detecting the wearing state of the earphone. Illustratively, the first sensor may be, for example, a capacitive sensor. The plurality of first sensors may be arranged in the earphone, or a multi-channel capacitance sensor may be arranged in the earphone, wherein one channel corresponds to one capacitance sensor, and the detection position of the capacitance sensor corresponding to each channel is different. It should be noted that, the number of the first sensors is not limited in particular in the embodiments of the present disclosure, for example, as many first sensors as possible may be disposed in the available accommodating space of the earphone, so that, for users with different pinna sizes, the wearing state of the earphone may be accurately detected by one or more of the first sensors.

The wearing setting function of the headset may be a function of determining a first sensor for detecting a wearing state of the headset when the headset is used for the first time or a user is replaced. In the present embodiment, the wearing setting function of the headset is executed by the electronic device based on the communication connection established between the headset and the electronic device. Illustratively, the electronic equipment is provided with a target application program for configuring the earphone, and after the communication connection between the earphone and the electronic equipment is established, the target application program is opened, and the wearing setting function of the earphone is operated through the target application program.

The first operation may be an operation in which the user wears the headset. The first data set may be first signals collected by the plurality of first sensors with the headset in a worn state. The first data set may include first signals output by each of the plurality of first sensors. Taking the plurality of first sensors as an example of a multi-channel capacitive sensor, the first data set includes a capacitance signal output by each channel of the multi-channel capacitive sensor when the headset is in a worn state.

In one embodiment, before the acquiring the first data set collected by the plurality of first sensors when the user performs the first operation on the headset while the wearing setting function of the headset is turned on, the method further includes: receiving a first instruction sent by electronic equipment; and responding to the first instruction, and starting a wearing setting function of the earphone.

In this embodiment, the electronic device may be an electronic device that establishes a communication connection with the headset and that sets the headset. The electronic device may be, for example, a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, etc.

The first instruction may be an instruction to turn on a wear setting function of the headset, which is transmitted to the headset in response to a first input to the electronic device by the user. The first input may be, for example, a click input to a target control. For example, a target application program for configuring the headset is installed on the electronic device, after the communication connection between the headset and the electronic device is established, the target application program is opened, a target control for opening the wearing setting function of the headset is clicked, and at this time, the electronic device sends a first instruction to the headset to open the wearing setting function of the headset.

In this embodiment, under the condition that the user uses the earphone for the first time or changes the wearer, the wearing setting function of the earphone can be started, and thus, the target sensor for detecting the wearing state of the earphone can be determined again in combination with the subsequent steps, so that the earphone can be suitable for different wearers, and the user experience is better.

In one embodiment, after acquiring the first data set collected by the plurality of first sensors while the user performs the first operation on the headset, the method further includes: and sending first prompt information to prompt a user to execute the second operation on the earphone.

The first prompt message is used for prompting the user to execute the second operation. The second operation may be an operation in which the user takes off the headset. For example, the first prompt message is "the first operation is completed, please execute the second operation: take off the earphone ".

In this embodiment, under the condition that the user performs the first operation on the headset, after the first data set acquired by the plurality of first sensors is acquired, the headset sends the first prompt information to guide the user to perform the second operation, so that the user can be prevented from taking off the headset when the first data set is not acquired, and the accuracy of detection can be ensured.

After step S2100, step S2200 is executed to acquire a second data set collected by the plurality of first sensors when a user performs a second operation on the headset, where the second data set includes a plurality of second signals output by the plurality of first sensors, and the plurality of second signals are in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of first signals.

The second operation may be an operation in which the user takes off the headset. The second data set may be second signals collected by the plurality of first sensors when the headset is not worn. The second data set may include the second signal output by each of the plurality of first sensors, and the second signal output by one of the first sensors corresponds to the first signal output by that first sensor. Taking the plurality of first sensors as an example of a multi-channel capacitive sensor, the second data set includes a capacitance signal output by each channel of the multi-channel capacitive sensor when the headset is not worn.

After step S2200, performing step S2300, determining a target sensor according to the first data set and the second data set, so as to detect a wearing state of the headset by the target sensor; the target sensor is a first sensor of the plurality of first sensors, wherein signal variation satisfies a preset condition, and the signal variation is a difference between a signal value of the first signal and a corresponding signal value of the second signal.

The target sensor is a first sensor used for detecting the wearing state of the earphone in the use process of the earphone. The number of target sensors may be one or more, and the number of target sensors is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

In the present embodiment, the wearing state of the headphones may include a worn state and an unworn state. When the detection position of the first sensor is the target detection position, the detection position of the first sensor is attached to the auricle of the human ear when the earphone is in a worn state. Thus, when the earphone is not worn, the earphone is not in contact with the human ear, and the signal value of the second signal output by the first sensor is small. When the earphone is worn and the earphone is in contact with the human ear, the signal value of the first signal output by the first sensor is obviously increased. That is, when the detected position of the first sensor is fitted to the wearer, the difference between the signal value of the first signal and the signal value of the second signal of the first sensor is large.

However, when the detection position of the first sensor is not the target detection position, the detection position of the first sensor cannot completely fit the pinna of the human ear when the earphone is worn. In this way, the signal values of the signals output by the first sensor do not differ much when the headset is in different wearing states. That is, when the detection position of the first sensor does not fit the wearer, the difference between the signal value of the first signal collected by the first sensor in the worn state of the headphone and the signal value of the second signal collected by the first sensor in the worn state of the headphone is small.

Based on this, the target sensor can be determined from the plurality of first sensors based on the first data group and the second data group, that is, based on the amount of change in the signal output from each of the first sensors.

In one embodiment, the first sensors of the plurality of first sensors whose signal variation satisfies a preset condition include at least one of: a first sensor of the plurality of first sensors in which the signal variation is larger than a first threshold; a first sensor of the plurality of first sensors, the signal variation amount of which is the largest; a preset number of first sensors of the plurality of first sensors where the signal variation is large.

The following describes different preset conditions with specific examples.

Illustratively, the target sensor is a first sensor, among the plurality of first sensors, whose signal variation is larger than a first threshold.

The first threshold may be used to measure whether the signal value of the first signal and the signal value of the second signal output by the first sensor meet a requirement. When the signal variable of the first sensor is greater than the first threshold, it is described that the change in the signal value between the first signal and the second signal output by the first sensor provided at the detection position is large, and the wearing state of the headphone can be accurately detected.

Taking an example of setting 10 first sensors in an earphone, when a user wears the earphone, acquiring a first signal output by each first sensor in the 10 first sensors; then, when the user takes off the earphone, acquiring a second signal output by each first sensor in the 10 first sensors; then, the signal variation of each of the 10 first sensors is determined, the signal variation of the 10 first sensors is compared with a first threshold, and the first sensor with the signal variation larger than the first threshold is taken as a target sensor. And in the use process of the earphone, the wearing state of the earphone is determined according to the signal output by the target sensor.

Illustratively, the first sensor, which has the largest signal variation among the plurality of first sensors, is taken as the target sensor.

Continuing to take the example of setting 10 first sensors in the earphone, when the user wears the earphone, acquiring a first signal output by each first sensor in the 10 first sensors; then, when the user takes off the earphone, acquiring a second signal output by each first sensor in the 10 first sensors; then, the signal variation of each of the 10 first sensors is determined, the signal variations of the 10 first sensors are compared, and the first sensor with the largest signal variation is taken as a target sensor. And in the use process of the earphone, the wearing state of the earphone is determined according to the signal output by the target sensor.

Illustratively, a preset number of first sensors, among the plurality of first sensors, having a large signal variation amount are taken as the target sensors.

The preset number may be the number of target sensors. The preset number can be set by a person skilled in the art according to practical experience, for example, the preset number is 2 to 3, and the embodiment of the disclosure does not limit this.

Continuing to take the example of setting 10 first sensors in the earphone, when the user wears the earphone, acquiring a first signal output by each first sensor in the 10 first sensors; then, when the user takes off the earphone, acquiring a second signal output by each first sensor in the 10 first sensors; then, the signal variation of each of the 10 first sensors is determined, the signal variations of the 10 first sensors are compared, and the 3 first sensors with larger signal variations are used as target sensors. And in the use process of the earphone, the wearing state of the earphone is determined according to the signal output by the target sensor.

In this embodiment, the first sensor with the signal variation satisfying the preset condition is used as the target sensor to detect the wearing state of the earphone, so that the earphone can be adapted to users with different pinna sizes, has higher detection accuracy, and can reduce the false triggering rate of the earphone.

In one embodiment, the determining a target sensor from the first data set and the second data set may further include: and sending the first data group and the second data group to electronic equipment so that the electronic equipment determines a target sensor according to the first data group and the second data group.

The electronic device may be an electronic device that establishes a communication connection with the headset. Illustratively, the electronic device may be an electronic device having a bluetooth communication module. For example, a mobile terminal having a bluetooth communication module may establish a communication connection directly with a headset.

In specific implementation, after the headset acquires the first data group and the second data group output by the plurality of first sensors, the first data group and the second data group can be sent to the electronic device, the electronic device determines the target sensor according to the first data group and the second data group, and returns the identification information of the target sensor to the headset, so that the headset determines the target sensor from the plurality of first sensors, and the wearing state of the headset is detected according to the target sensor.

In this embodiment, the first data set and the second data set may be analyzed by the electronic device, so that power consumption of the headset may be reduced, and a use duration of the headset may be prolonged.

In one embodiment, before said determining the target sensor from said first data set and said second data set, the method further comprises: and sending the first data group and the second data group to electronic equipment so that the electronic equipment stores the first data group and the second data group in association with user information under the condition of acquiring the user information.

In this embodiment, the electronic device may be a mobile terminal or a server. The electronic device may be provided with a first interface through which user information may be acquired. The user information may include pinna information of the user. Based on the communication connection of the electronic equipment and the earphone, a first data set and a second data set corresponding to the auricle information can be acquired so as to store the user information and the corresponding first data set and second data set in an associated mode.

In this embodiment, after acquiring the first data group and the second data group collected by the plurality of first sensors, the first data group, the second data group, and the corresponding user information relationship may be stored. Therefore, for users with the same user or the same auricle information, the corresponding data can be directly acquired, so that the target sensor and the target detection position can be determined according to the stored data, and the use is more convenient.

In one embodiment, after determining the target sensor based on the first data set and the second data set, the method further comprises: and closing the wearing setting function of the earphone, and sending second prompt information to the electronic equipment so that the electronic equipment outputs the second prompt information.

The second prompt message is used for prompting the user that the wearing setting of the earphone is completed. The second prompt message may be a voice prompt message, a text prompt message, a vibration prompt message, or the like. For example, the second prompt message is "the wearing setting of the headset is completed, please use".

In this embodiment, after the target sensor is determined according to the first data set and the second data set, the earphone sends the second prompt information to the electronic device to prompt the user that the wearing setting of the earphone is completed, so that the earphone can be used normally, and the user experience is better.

In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the method further comprises: step S3100 to step S3400.

Step S3100, the electronic device provides a second interface and a third interface;

step S3200, obtaining, through the second interface, a first data set output by a plurality of first sensors, where the first data set includes a plurality of first data sets, each first data set includes signal values of a plurality of first signals output by the plurality of first sensors, and one first data set corresponds to one user.

Each of the first data sets is a signal value of a first signal output by the plurality of first sensors when each of the users wears the headphones. It will be appreciated that the pinna information will be different for each user, for example, the pinna size will be different for each user.

Step S3300, obtaining, through the third interface, a plurality of second data sets output by the first sensors, where the second data set includes a plurality of second data groups, each second data set includes signal values of a plurality of second signals output by the first sensors, and one second data group corresponds to one user.

Each of the second data sets is a signal value of a second signal output by the plurality of first sensors when each of the users wears the headphones. It will be appreciated that the pinna information will be different for each user, for example, the pinna size will be different for each user.

Step S3400, determining a target sensor according to the first data set and the second data set so as to detect the wearing state of the earphone through the target sensor; the target sensor is a first sensor of the plurality of first sensors, wherein signal variation satisfies a preset condition, and the signal variation is a difference between a signal value of the first signal and a corresponding signal value of the second signal.

Illustratively, taking the example of setting 9 first sensors (9-channel capacitive sensors), assume that there are three users with different auricle information, i.e., user a, user B, and user C.

The signal variation amount of the signal output by the 9-channel capacitive sensor of the user a is acquired. Specifically, when the earphone is in a worn state, a signal value of a first signal output by each channel of the 9-channel capacitive sensor is acquired; when the earphone is not worn, acquiring a signal value of a second signal output by each channel of the 9-channel capacitive sensor; a signal variation is determined for each channel output signal of the 9-channel capacitive sensor.

The signal variation amount of the signal output by the 9-channel capacitance sensor of the user B is acquired. Specifically, when the earphone is in a worn state, a signal value of a first signal output by each channel of the 9-channel capacitive sensor is acquired; when the earphone is not worn, acquiring a signal value of a second signal output by each channel of the 9-channel capacitive sensor; a signal variation is determined for each channel output signal of the 9-channel capacitive sensor.

The signal variation amount of the signal output by the 9-channel capacitive sensor of the user C is acquired. Specifically, when the earphone is in a worn state, a signal value of a first signal output by each channel of the 9-channel capacitive sensor is acquired; when the earphone is not worn, acquiring a signal value of a second signal output by each channel of the 9-channel capacitive sensor; a signal variation is determined for each channel output signal of the 9-channel capacitive sensor.

Then, as shown in fig. 4, the signal variation amounts of the output signals of each channel of the user a, the user B, and the user C are compared, and three first sensors having large signal variation amounts corresponding to the user a, the user B, and the user C are set as target sensors. For example, capacitance sensors corresponding to the channel positions 4, 7, and 8 are set as target sensors, that is, the channel positions 4, 7, and 8 are set as target detection positions, that is, positions suitable for providing the capacitance sensors.

In this embodiment, by acquiring the first data set and the second data set of the user with different auricle information and determining the optimal setting position of the capacitive sensor according to the first data set and the second data set, the situation that the headset cannot identify the wearing state of part of the users can be avoided, and the false triggering rate of the headset can be reduced.
