The state detection modules can be respectively located at different positions of the earphone, for example, on a microphone control board, a left channel earplug, a right channel earplug, an audio interface plug or an audio line, so as to monitor the movement track of the earphone (such as leftward movement, rightward movement, downward movement, upward movement, and the like, which can be detected by an accelerometer and a gyroscope), the direction of the earphone (such as the gravity direction detected by a magnetometer), or the light intensity detected by a photometer to judge the environment (such as whether the detected light intensity has a severe change, whether the earphone is placed in a pocket or not, or whether the earplug is placed in the ear or is closely placed or not by measuring infrared light intensity to infer the temperature of an ambient object, etc.), or the stretching/twisting of the line of the whole earphone, and the like, and the posture information is fed back to the control module to be judged by the control module. The control module is mainly used for exchanging data with various sensors, analyzing the data and judging the posture of the earphone, so that corresponding control information can be sent out to adjust the earphone.
In another aspect of the present embodiment, there is also provided a method for controlling an earphone circuit, for controlling the earphone circuit as described above, including the steps of:
s100: after the audio interface is connected with the host, the control module is started, and the control module can be started to execute a preset program;
s200: and detecting the gesture of the earphone by a state detection module and feeding back gesture information to the control module.
In addition, after the gesture information is fed back to the control module, the control module reads the gesture information and judges what gesture the earphone is in, and sends out control information corresponding to the gesture of the earphone to adjust the earphone, or the control module uploads data to inform the host to start corresponding application, the host further analyzes and processes the data to obtain a more accurate state of the earphone, sends out control information corresponding to the gesture of the earphone to adjust the earphone, or the state detection module embeds a threshold value to judge the gesture information, and sends out control information corresponding to the gesture of the earphone to adjust the earphone.
When the earphone is connected to the host, the control module can set at least one state detection module to be started by default, the default on state detection module can wake up the control module and/or other modules by threshold value, when the data measured by the on state detection module exceeds the threshold value (such as the earphone part with the accelerometer is thrown out by force), wake up the control module, start the power supply module (the power supply module is supposed to be started to provide more current for other modules), start other state detection or non-state sensors, after the measurement is finished, the control module uploads the data to the host by the audio line single-wire protocol or starts the wireless transmission module to upload the host, and each module enters the preset state again.
When the host or the earphone detects and judges that the earphone is in a part or all of the audio functions, such as the recording or playing functions are not in use, the host configures the impedance and the voltage of the corresponding audio line, and/or the earphone control module configures the earphone power supply module to realize different power supply and power taking modes, such as high current or high efficiency power supply to other modules (rechargeable batteries) of the earphone.
The state detection module can be internally provided with a threshold judgment, and wake up, turn on or turn off other modules on the earphone according to the threshold judgment. Specifically, i state detection modules respectively send i interrupt signals to the control module, namely a first interrupt signal, a second interrupt signal and an ith interrupt signal; and when the interrupt signal is defined to be continuous or pulse 1, the value of the state detection module exceeds a threshold value, and when the interrupt signal is defined to be continuous or pulse 0, the value of the state detection module is smaller than the threshold value, wherein i is a positive integer. The control module may be activated using a threshold to read the headset pose data and upload the host.
If at least one of the first interrupt signal, the second interrupt signal and the ith interrupt signal is 1, the control module judges that the earphone is in a first state; if the first interrupt signal, the second interrupt signal and the ith interrupt signal are all 0 in the preset time, the control module judges that the earphone is in the second state.
If the control module judges that the earphone is in the first state, the control module turns on the microphone, turns off or changes the working state of the power supply module, or turns off the microphone, turns on or changes the working state of the power supply module; if the control module judges that the earphone is in the second state, the control module turns off the microphone and turns on or changes the working state of the power supply module, or the control module turns on the microphone and turns on or changes the working state of the power supply module; and the control module sends out control information corresponding to the posture of the earphone, adjusts the earphone and simultaneously informs the host of an adjustment result. The control module can continuously read the earphone posture data and upload the earphone posture data to the host; or the control module reads the attitude data of the earphone at regular time and uploads the attitude data to the host; the control module can be controlled by a manual key and other modules on the earphone can be further controlled by the control module; after the control module uploads the attitude data to the host, the host judges and then makes corresponding host configuration and operation to be adapted to the working state of the module on the earphone, and meanwhile, the corresponding earphone configuration is issued, and the earphone receives host issuing information for controlling the module on the earphone; the control module shares earphone posture data or judgment results with other surrounding users by using a wireless module in the earphone, and exchanges information with other users at the same time; after uploading the earphone posture data or the judging result to the host computer, the host computer shares the earphone posture data or the judging result with other users and exchanges information with other users at the same time; the earphone is provided with an infinite module or is an infinite earphone, and when the earphone is pulled out and disconnected with the wired connection of the host, the module on the earphone is automatically awakened, opened or closed. The wireless earphone is connected with the host machine in a wireless way, or the wireless module on the earphone is automatically started by the control module to be connected with the host machine in a wireless way; the control module controls the wireless module on the earphone or directly informs the host computer to request sharing of earphone posture data and other information of other users.
Specifically, in this embodiment, for example, the number of the state detection modules is 3, and the state detection modules are accelerometers, namely an accelerometer 1, an accelerometer 2 and an accelerometer 3, where the accelerometer 1 is located on a microphone control board, the accelerometer 2 is located on a left channel ear plug, and the accelerometer 3 is located on a right channel ear plug, so as to detect the moving states of the microphone, the left channel ear plug and the right channel ear plug. It should be noted that, in other embodiments than the present embodiment, the number of the state detection modules is not limited, and is not limited to the accelerometer, and the positions of the state detection modules may be set according to different needs, which is not limited herein.
The control module sets a detection threshold (or the detection circuit and the threshold can be built in the accelerometer), monitors data or interrupt signals transmitted by each accelerometer, such as a first interrupt signal INT1, a second interrupt signal INT2 and a third interrupt signal INT3, wherein when the first interrupt signal INT1, the second interrupt signal INT2 and the third interrupt signal INT3 are continuous or pulse is 1, the value of the accelerometer exceeds the threshold, and when the first interrupt signal INT1, the second interrupt signal INT2 and the third interrupt signal INT3 are continuous to 0, the value of the acceleration is smaller than the threshold. After the headset is powered up (e.g., the headset is plugged into the host), the control module activates, which may go to sleep waiting for an interrupt signal (or actively exchange data with the sensor, which is also handled by the control module).
When data exchange is performed, if at least one of the first interrupt signal INT1, the second interrupt signal INT2 and the third interrupt signal INT3 is 1, the control module determines that the earphone is in a first state, for example, a moving state; if the first interrupt signal INT1, the second interrupt signal INT2 and the third interrupt signal INT3 are all 0 within the predetermined time T0, the control module determines that the earphone is in the second state, for example, the stationary state. At this time, the control module reads the gesture information and extracts the movement track characteristics of the earphone, for example, determines the movement track of the earphone (such as leftward movement, rightward movement, downward movement, upward movement, etc.). In this embodiment, only 3 accelerometers are illustrated, and those skilled in the art can know that a plurality of sensors located at different positions can be added, so that the pose of the earphone can be more accurately determined according to the data of the plurality of sensors. For example, with a photometer, the photometer may include a sensor for measuring visible light, a sensor for ultraviolet light, a sensor for infrared light, etc., which may be used to detect an external environment where the headset is located, thereby detecting a physical/chemical environment or a position or a dynamic parameter where a plurality of places of the headset are located, to infer a local or overall state of the headset, and further infer a use state of the headset, and further calculate learned use habits of the headset user, for example, determine whether the headset is located in a pocket or exposed to the outside, thereby defining whether the headset is in a used state, etc., and make corresponding adjustments in this state. In addition, for example, a module formed by a plurality of sensors such as a plurality of accelerometers, gyroscopes or magnetometers can be used for judging the gravity acceleration, the angular velocity and the position of the geomagnetic field, so that the attitude characteristics of the earphone can be accurately obtained in a multi-dimensional and multi-directional manner, and the using state of the earphone can be judged.
After data exchange, the control module extracts the movement track characteristics of the earphone, judges the movement track of the earphone, and sends out corresponding control information to correspondingly adjust the earphone. For example:
if the control module judges that the earphone is in a first moving state (such as downward movement), the control module turns on the microphone and turns off the power module;
if the control module judges that the earphone is in the second moving state (such as upward movement), the control module turns off the microphone and turns on the power module;
if the control module judges that the earphone is in a static state, the control module turns off the microphone, turns on the power module and simultaneously notifies the host computer as required, or turns on the microphone, turns on the power module and simultaneously notifies the host computer as required.
In this embodiment, a method for using the earphone is also provided, where the method for using the earphone includes: and changing the posture of the earphone, detecting the posture of the earphone by the state detection module, and adjusting the earphone according to the posture information.
Specifically, if the earplug of the earphone is required to be judged whether to be inserted into the ear, the absolute (or relative) space angle/position of the earplug can be given by the comprehensive accelerometer/gyroscope/magnetometer, and the surrounding infrared light intensity or visible light intensity can be measured in a matching manner to comprehensively judge.
In addition, the earphone control module or the host computer can be utilized to judge the local actions of the earphone to carry out corresponding processing, such as drawing specific figures, writing, shaking left and right with great force and the like in the air or the combination of a plurality of actions; or the whole state of the earphone is utilized, such as the whole earphone is folded, stretched, rolled, placed in a bag or integrally acted, etc. In particular, the method comprises the steps of,
1) After the earphone control module or the host identifies the local or whole characteristic state of the earphone, the earphone control module or the host can be used as the identity authentication of the earphone user to turn off/on part (such as a microphone or left channel audio, or additional functions, such as a personal safety information module) or all the earphone audio functions and additional functions on the earphone or the host. Multiple recognition failures may sound an alarm such as activating a headset buzzer, flashing lights, etc.;
2) After the earphone control module or the host identifies the local or whole characteristic state of the earphone, the earphone control module or the host is used for inputting passwords of different application scenes on the host, such as unlocking a mobile phone screen, identity authentication during payment, inputting passwords of various accounts and the like;
3) After the earphone control module or the host detects the state of the earphone, the corresponding actions of the part or the whole of the earphone are mapped to corresponding applications on the host, such as realizing the use of a traditional air game handle for various fighting in game applications, vehicle and plane driving and the like.
The control module can set the sent control information according to different requirements according to the gesture or the moving track of the earphone, for example, the microphone can be closed and the power supply module can be opened when the earphone moves rightwards; or the microphone is turned off, the power module is turned on, and the like when a circle is drawn anticlockwise in the air, and the point can be set according to different requirements.
In addition, the earphone can also instruct the control module to close or open the power module through a control mode of a key or a combined key, and inform the host according to the requirement, namely, control the power module through a traditional key mode; the control module judges whether the movement of the earphone accords with a certain characteristic, so as to turn off or turn on the power module, and inform the host according to the requirement, namely, control the power module in a mode of adopting the posture of the earphone. Similarly, the control module determines whether the track of the earphone meets a certain characteristic, so as to turn off or turn on the microphone and inform the host. For example, after the earphone is judged to act leftwards, rightwards, downwards or upwards, the result is informed to the host, and the non-key earphone control used as the earphone adjusts volume to answer the call, or the handle direction control in the game, etc.
The earphone can also use a wireless module (including a Bluetooth earphone module) or a notification host to share or exchange the gesture data and the processing result in the earphone with other users in a short distance (using Bluetooth, zigbee, WIFI, etc.) or a long distance (data transmission function of a mobile phone), or send out requests to share or exchange the gesture data and the processing result in the earphone of other users. The specific protocol may vary, such as active broadcast, inquiry demand, request solicitation, etc. For example, the earphone uploads the data to the host, the host uploads the data to the big data or the cloud processing center, or the earphone transfers the gesture data and the processing result to relatives, friends, net friends, even surrounding strangers, and rescue or entertainment games are implemented while other information is exchanged.
In addition, the obtained earphone state judgment result (whether the control module or the host computer is obtained) can be used for controlling a hardware or software functional module locally (on the host computer or on the earphone), such as a power module, a microphone, other sensors (such as temperature, humidity, pressure, gas, light and the like), a wired/wireless transmission module and the like in the earphone; for example, the device can be used for controlling a game handle, controlling an air mouse, opening/closing/unlocking a screen of the host, controlling audio and video playing of the host, inputting information such as characters, authenticating identity and inputting login of an account.
Because the resources on the earphone are limited, such as limited electric energy, insufficient processing capacity of a CPU and other reasons, the control module on the earphone can only perform simple processing and judgment after reading the data of the state detection module, and the obtained data result can be used by other modules on the earphone or uploaded to a host for further processing or use, so that the resources on the earphone can be saved.
In summary, in the earphone circuit, the earphone control method and the earphone using method provided by the embodiments of the present invention, a state detection module is added to detect the posture and the using state of the earphone, and feedback posture information to the control module, where the control module determines the posture of the earphone, and the control module analyzes and processes the posture, so as to control other modules on the earphone, thereby achieving the purpose of correspondingly adjusting the earphone, and uploading the host.
