Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a noise canceling apparatus and method, and more particularly, to a noise canceling apparatus and method using an earphone for a smart terminal.
In modern urban life, it is always exposed to various types of noise. For example, if you are on a subway or a bus, you will always be exposed to the noise of your car while you are walking on the sidewalk.
If you are sensitive to noise, you can wear an earplug, but it will not be useful in places that are uncomfortable and noisy.
In addition, the noise generated by subway or bus sounds usually in the range of 40 to 60 dB, and this noise is continuously exposed to the ear.
To eliminate this constantly exposed noise, we use earphones to listen to music at high volume.
However, there is a problem that it can not be predicted when and where the noise will be exposed. You can not always listen to music to avoid being exposed to noise. It is only a temporary avoidance means.
On the other hand, this avoidance method can not determine whether the surrounding sound is noise or conversation of the other party. That is, there is a demand for a method of removing or preventing noise from surrounding sounds.
If you are able to communicate smoothly with your opponent even if you are exposed to loud noises, you can be convenient without hindering your daily life.
In addition to the avoidance methods such as listening to music, various measures are required to actively block or eliminate the noise.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a noise canceling device using an earphone for a smart terminal.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a noise canceling method using an earphone for a smart terminal.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a noise canceling apparatus using an earphone for a smart terminal, the microphone including a microphone for sensing ambient noise, a decibel measuring unit for measuring a decibel of the sensed noise, Noise that produces a predetermined low frequency noise of 60 dB to 80 dB which is a predetermined dB higher than the measured decibel when the decibel value is within 40 dB to 60 dB and is within 40 dB to 60 dB A smart terminal including a determination / removal unit; And an earphone for outputting noise generated in the noise determination / removal unit.
At this time, the noise determining / canceling unit may be configured to determine that surrounding noise is present if it is determined that the measured decibel is continuously within 40 dB to 60 dB for a predetermined second or more.
Meanwhile, the noise determining / canceling unit may be configured to manually change the decibel of the low-frequency noise in real time according to a user's input, or to automatically change a predetermined value by the user.
The noise determination / cancellation unit may be configured to recognize a plurality of frequencies constituting the noise sensed by the microphone, and to generate noise having opposite frequencies of the same frequency as the plurality of frequencies.
The smart terminal may be configured to operate the microphone, the decibel measurement unit, and the noise determination / removal unit when the earphone is detected to be connected to the smart terminal or the user has an input.
On the other hand, the earphone may be configured to have a home rubber member that releases air to lower the pressure in the ear when the user wears and reproduces the low-frequency noise.
Here, the noise determining / canceling unit may be configured to control the air release by using the hole rubber member when the decibel measured by the decibel measuring unit is 60 dB or more and 100 dB or less.
On the other hand, the earphone includes an operation button on the rear portion of the ear plug, and when the operation button is pressed once a predetermined number of seconds or less, the currently reproduced sound is temporarily stopped, And a control signal for performing a call attempt to a phone number of a recent calling party when the user clicks for more than a predetermined time, and inputs the control signal to the smart terminal.
At this time, the earphone includes at least one line-arresting ring member that is detachably attachable to the plastic engaging member coupled to the line at the point where both the ear lines of the earphone are separated by the coupling force of the iron and the magnet Respectively.
Here, the plastic coupling member may be configured such that the use of the operation button is written using pen ink that is erased on the outer surface.
The neodymium ring member comprises a plastic ring capable of holding the line and a neodymium magnet provided on the opposite side of the ring, and the neodymium magnet and the iron attached to the plastic joining member, The plastic coupling member may be detachably attached to the plastic coupling member by a coupling force of the plastic coupling member.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for removing noise using an earphone for a smart terminal, comprising: sensing a connection of an earphone to a smart terminal; Sensing the noise of the surroundings using a microphone when the smart terminal senses connection of the earphone; Measuring a decibel (dB) of the sensed noise by a decibel measurement unit of the smart terminal; Determining whether the measured noise level of the smart terminal is within a range of 40 dB to 60 dB; Generating a predetermined low frequency noise of 60 dB to 80 dB higher than the measured decibel by a predetermined dB higher than the measured decibel if the measured decibel is within the range of 40 dB to 60 dB; And outputting the noise generated by the earphone to the noise determination / removal unit.
The determining whether the measured noise level of the smart terminal is within the range of 40 dB to 60 dB may include determining whether the measured value of the measured noise level is within 40 dB to 60 dB continuously for a predetermined number of seconds or more May be configured to determine that ambient noise is present.
And the step of generating the noise of 60 dB to 80 dB, which is higher than the measured decibel by a predetermined dB higher than the measured decibel, if the measured decibel is within the range of 40 dB to 60 dB, The judging / canceling unit may be configured to grasp a plurality of frequencies constituting the noise sensed by the microphone, and to generate a noise composed of a plurality of frequencies and opposite waveforms of the same frequency respectively.
In addition, when the decibel measurement unit of the smart terminal measures the decibel (dB) of the sensed noise, if the measured decibel is not less than 60 dB and less than 100 dB, the noise determination / So that air pressure is reduced when the user wears the earphone.
According to the apparatus and method for removing noise using the earphone for a smart terminal, the noise of the surroundings is automatically recognized and a low-frequency noise of a higher decibel (dB) is output through the earphone, so that a soft low- So that it is possible to reduce the unpleasant noise around.
In addition, as a method of judging the noise, it is possible to distinguish between conversation and noise by making a determination that the noise is a peripheral noise rather than a conversation only when the noise of a high decibel lasts for a predetermined time (second) or more.
Another method is to measure the frequency of the surrounding noise, generate a noise having a waveform opposite to the frequency, and output the generated noise to the earphone so as to more positively remove the noise.
As another example, a hole member provided with a hole in an earphone may be mounted to allow air to be emitted through the hole during low-frequency noise reproduction, thereby reducing the pressure in the ear. At this time, there is an effect that external noise is temporarily heard by the swollen eardrum.
