That is to say, the fusion product can generate a second-level recognition based on the recognition results of different forms. For example, when it is recognized that the carrier is a necklace, it switches to the smart necklace function after Bluetooth pairing, and the second level recognizes two states (on-chain and out-of-chain).
- the carrier when it is recognized that the carrier is an earphone box, and the Bluetooth connection is paired, it switches to the TWS earphone function, and the second level recognizes three states (earphones out of the box, earphones in the box and closed, and earphones in the box and open).

- the above watch and the like may also have other different state combinations, which are not limited here.
- the shape identification of the above-mentioned carrier can also be an alternating magnetic field identification.
- the carrier modulates the magnetic field vector through an electrical signal to complete magnetic vector communication and achieve device ID identification.
- the multi-position/status information detection method in this application is simple and easy to implement. It uses at least one magnet and at least one magnetic sensor (for example, a three-axis Hall sensor), and reads the x, y, and z three-axis directions through the magnetic sensor.
- the function of the upper magnetic field size can not only be applied to the detection of at least three kinds of position/status information in the current TWS earphones (such as the earphone out of the box, the earphone in the box and the lid, the earphone in the box and the lid), and the expansion of various states It is also capable of mass production, and can achieve multiple state detection in one, with strong scalability.
- current electricity and wireless communication mechanisms such as switching on and off, electricity, binaural interaction, left and right ear recognition, etc.

- multi-level magnetic environment detection can also be realized.
- the magnetization direction of the magnets can be optimized (for example, the magnet directions of the two magnets are the same), so that the detection can be made more accurate.
- the wireless earphones in this application can also be applied to special-shaped TWS earphones or other fusion products, for example, can be applied to earphones such as cylindrical and cylindrical-like (bullet heads) that can rotate freely in the storage cavity.
