  • an ANR headphone is any headphone or headset component that can be worn in or about the ear to deliver acoustic audio signals to the user or to protect the user's hearing, provides acoustic noise reduction or cancellation and has an exposed surface that can be tapped by a user.
  • an ANR headphone can be an ear cup that is worn on or over a user's ear, has a cushion portion that extends around the periphery of the opening to the ear as an acoustic seal, and a hard outer shell.
  • ANR headphones as used herein, also include ANR earbuds that are typically at least partially inserted into the ear canal and have an exposed surface that a user can tap or allow the user to tap the ear or a nearby region of the head.
  • Taps occurring in succession during a brief time period are defined herein as a "tap event.”
  • a “tap sequence” refers to the content of the tap event, that is, the number of individual taps in the tap event.
  • the tap sequence can be a single tap or can be two or more taps.
  • a tap event may be used to change a mode of operation of headphones or other components integrated with an ANR audio system.
  • the tap event can be used to change a headphone set from audio playback mode to a telephone communications mode.
  • the tap event can be used to change a feature available in one mode that may not be available in a different mode.
  • the tap event is interpreted in light of the current mode. For example, a tap sequence defined by a single tap during playback may be interpreted as an instruction to pause the current audio playback. In contrast, a single tap during telephone communications may be interpreted as an instruction to place a telephone call on hold.

  • the taps are reliably detected and can be used to control features available within a particular mode of operation of the headphones and to change to a different mode.
  • noise is detected by a feedback microphone and ANR circuitry generates a compensating signal to cancel that noise.
  • Conventional ANR circuitry does not distinguish between the various sources of pressure changes detected by the feedback microphone.
  • the pressure change can be acoustic noise or can be the result of a touching of an exposed surface of the headphone, the external portion of the ear or a region of the head near to the headphone to cause an acoustic or subsonic pressure change.
  • the ANR circuitry In response to the tap, the ANR circuitry generates a compensating signal.
  • the visible portion of the ear made up of cartilage and skin, and which exists outside the head may be tapped to cause the pressure change in the sealed ear canal.
  • Certain portions of the auricle, such as the helix, tragus, or antihelix, are more easily accessible to the user and can be tapped.
  • a tap or headphone tap includes a direct touching of a headphone or any intended touching of the ear or region of the head near the ear that causes a pressure change in the sealed ear canal.
  • Tapping includes tugging, "flicking” or pulling of skin and/or cartilage of the ear or a portion of the head or skin on the head near the headphone.
  • a sealed ear canal includes a substantially sealed ear canal in which a complete seal does not exist. For example, there may be a small gap between the headphone and the ear can through which air may pass and thereby reduce the amplitude of the pressure change for a tap; however, the pressure change may be sufficient for recognizing the pressure change as a tap.
  • Examples of A R headphones and A R systems described herein take advantage of a difference between general acoustic noise and taps to a headphone based on a difference in the electrical current consumed by the ANR circuitry. More specifically, a current detection circuit is used to distinguish current consumed as a result of acoustic noise from current consumed by a tap event. A tap event results in high pressure within the headphone, and generally draws more current from the power supply than that used to generate an acoustic noise cancelling signal. When the current detection circuit senses a characteristic of the current, such as an amplitude and/or waveform or duration, that corresponds to an occurrence of a tap event, a signal indicative of the tap sequence for the tap event is provided to a microcontroller for interpretation.
  • a characteristic of the current such as an amplitude and/or waveform or duration
  • the microcontroller may be part of an audio and mode control module which initiates the changes to audio features and operating mode of the ANR system.
  • the time occurring between consecutive taps in a single tap sequence can be defined to be less than a predefined duration or a tap sequence can require that all taps occur within a predefined time interval, for example, several seconds.
  • the ability to tap a headphone to cause a change in mode or audio signal attribute avoids the use of control buttons to implement similar functions. Control buttons are often problematic for a user, especially when the buttons are located on a portion of the system that may be located in a pocket or on the arm of a user, or are located on a small or difficult to reach area of the headphone. For example, in the context of headsets used by pilots in aircraft, searching for buttons that are located on a peripheral or difficult to reach area may be distracting from focusing on the surroundings and the pilot's primary task.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne des casques d'écoute à réduction du bruit acoustique (ANR) présentant des circuits de détection de courant utilisés pour détecter le courant consommé par les circuits ANR du fait de changements de pression dus à un contact tactile avec un casque d'écoute. L'action de contact tactile peut être effectuée pour modifier une caractéristique audio ou un mode de fonctionnement. Les circuits de détection de courant détectent une caractéristique du courant qui peut être utilisée pour déterminer une occurrence d'un événement de contact tactile. Des exemples de caractéristique incluent une amplitude, forme d'onde ou durée du courant détecté. Avantageusement, le casque d'écoute ANR rend inutile la présence de boutons de commande pour déclencher les modifications souhaitées de caractéristique audio ou de mode de fonctionnement. Des circuits de détection d'erreur inclus dans le casque d'écoute ANR peuvent en outre distinguer des événements de contact tactile valides d'autres événements de type différent qui pourraient autrement être mal interprétés comme un événement de contact tactile.
