Detailed ways

In order to have a more detailed understanding of the features and technical contents of the embodiments of the present application, the implementation of the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

An embodiment of the present application provides a method for detecting a wireless in-ear earphone, wherein a first earphone and a second earphone of the wireless in-ear earphone respectively include sensors; wherein the tragus-side casing of the first earphone includes the sensor, The opposite tragus side housing of the second earphone includes the sensor.

It can be understood that the sensor positions of the two earphones are the same, but when the two ears are in the in-ear state at the same time, the sensor detection positions are different.

As shown in FIG. 1 , which is a schematic diagram of wearing the first earphone on the right ear, the sensor 11 of the first earphone is close to the tragus side (ie, the first position). Correspondingly, when the first earphone is worn on the left ear, the first earphone The sensor 11 is close to the opposite tragus side (ie the second position).

As shown in FIG. 2 , which is a schematic diagram of wearing the second earphone on the left ear, the sensor 21 of the second earphone is close to the opposite tragus side (ie, the second position). Correspondingly, when the second earphone is worn on the right ear, the second The sensor 21 of the earphone is close to the tragus side (ie, the first position). Therefore, the contact characteristics collected by the sensors on different ears of the two earphones are different, and the wearing state of the earphones can be judged according to the detection values collected by the sensors.

On the basis of the above wireless in-ear headphones, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for detecting wireless in-ear headphones, and FIG. 3 is a first schematic flowchart of the method for detecting wireless in-ear headphones in the embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG. 3 . Specifically, the method may include:

Step 301: collect detection values through sensors;

Step 302: Determine the wearing state of the first earphone and/or the second earphone based on the detection value.

In some embodiments, the sensor is one of the following: a contact area sensor, a pressure sensor, a temperature sensor, or a light sensor.

Correspondingly, when the sensor is a pressure sensor, the detection value is a pressure value; when the sensor is a temperature sensor, the detection value is a temperature value; when the sensor is a light sensor, the detection value is the amount of incoming light.

As shown in Figure 1, when the in-ear headphones are in the wearing state, according to the position of the in-ear headphones near the tragus (the position corresponding to the sensor 11, which can be called the first position) and the opposite position (which can be called the second position) The difference in contact characteristics, such as the difference in contact area, pressure, distance and other information, is used to determine whether the in-ear headphones are worn on the left ear or the right ear. In the embodiment of the present application, the installation position of the sensor can be determined according to the contact characteristics of the earphone and the ear canal, and the greater the difference between the contact characteristics, the higher the detection accuracy. Exemplarily, when the first earphone is worn on the left ear, the position of the sensor is in contact with the first position of the ear, and the position opposite to the sensor is not in contact with the second position of the ear. On the contrary, when worn on the right ear, the position of the sensor is in contact with the second position of the ear, and the position on the opposite side of the sensor is not in contact with the first position of the ear.

When the sensor is a pressure sensor, a temperature sensor or a light sensor, it is determined whether the first earphone and/or the second earphone is in the left ear wearing state or the right ear wearing state by comparing the detection value and the detection threshold.

In some embodiments, when it is detected that the first earphone and/or the second earphone is switched from a non-in-ear state to an in-ear state, a corresponding sensor is turned on; and the first earphone and/or the second earphone is determined After the wearing state, turn off the corresponding sensor. That is to say, when switching from the non-in-ear state to the in-ear state, it indicates that the user performs the wearing operation on the earphone, and the wearing state detection needs to be performed and the sensor is turned on; in other states, there is no need to perform the wearing detection, and the sensor can be turned off to reduce the consumption of the earphone. Electricity.

In other embodiments, the sensor can also be turned on according to a certain time interval, and can also be in a normally on state.

In some embodiments, the method further includes: controlling the first earphone and/or the second earphone to work in an earphone playing mode corresponding to the wearing state of the first earphone. Here, the earphone playing mode is a left-ear playing mode or a right-ear playing mode. For in-ear headphones, users can use two headphones at the same time, or use one headphone alone. There is no need to distinguish the left and right of the two earphones. After the earphones are worn, they will automatically identify the ear worn by each earphone according to the detection value of the first sensor and the second sensor, so as to control the earphone to work in the earphone playback mode corresponding to its own wearing state. Avoid user wearing errors affecting the playback effect, and improve the user experience of using wireless headphones. In addition, the left and right earphones can be set to be exactly the same, which also saves design costs and production costs.

The detection methods of different sensors are further illustrated below.

In some embodiments, the sensor is a contact area sensor, and the detected value is a contact area value;

The determining the wearing state of the first earphone and/or the second earphone based on the detection value includes:

under predetermined conditions

When the contact area value is greater than the area threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is in the right ear wearing state, and when the contact area value is less than the area threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is in the left ear wearing state;

When the contact area value is greater than the area threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is in the right ear wearing state, and when the contact area value is smaller than the area threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is in the left ear wearing state.

That is to say, the identification methods of the left and right earphones of the first earphone and the second left earphone are exactly the same.

As shown in FIG. 1 , since the contact area of the earphone on the tragus side (ie the first position) is larger, the contact area of the earphone on the opposite tragus side (ie the second position) is smaller. At this time, when the in-ear earphone is in the right ear wearing state, the first sensor is used to detect the contact area value with the first position of the ear of the right ear, and the detected contact area value is relatively large. On the contrary, when the in-ear earphone is in the left ear wearing state, the sensor is used to detect the contact area value of the second position of the left ear, and the detected contact area value is small.

Therefore, when the sensor of the first earphone detects that the contact area value is greater than the area threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is worn on the right ear, and when the contact area value is smaller than the area threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is worn on the left ear. When the sensor of the second earphone detects that the contact area value is greater than the area threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is worn on the right ear, and when the contact area value is less than the area threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is worn on the left ear.

Here, the area threshold can be obtained by pre-detecting the contact area between the first position and the second position when the in-ear headphones are worn by different people, and by analyzing and counting a large amount of detection data to obtain an area threshold suitable for left and right ear judgment.

In some embodiments, the sensor is a pressure sensor, and the detected value is a pressure value;

Under predetermined conditions,

When the pressure value is greater than the pressure threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is in the right ear wearing state, and when the pressure value is less than the pressure threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is in the left ear wearing state;

When the pressure value is greater than the pressure threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is in the right ear wearing state, and when the pressure value is less than the pressure threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is in the left ear wearing state.

As shown in Figure 1, due to the large contact area of the earphone at the first position of the ear, the pressure applied by the earphone to the first position is also larger, the contact area of the earphone at the second position of the ear is small, and the pressure of the earphone to the second position is small. less pressure. At this time, when the in-ear earphone is in the state of being worn on the right ear, the sensor is used to detect the pressure value of the first position of the ear of the right ear, and the detected pressure value is relatively large. On the contrary, when the in-ear earphone is in the state of being worn on the left ear, the sensor is used to detect the pressure value of the second position of the ear of the left ear, and the detected pressure value is relatively small.

Therefore, when the sensor of the first earphone detects that the pressure value is greater than the pressure threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is worn on the right ear, and when the pressure value is less than the pressure threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is worn on the left ear. When the sensor of the second earphone detects that the pressure value is greater than the pressure threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is worn on the right ear, and when the pressure value is less than the pressure threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is worn on the left ear.

Here, the pressure threshold can be obtained by pre-detecting the pressure values at the first position and the second position when the in-ear headphones are worn by different people, and by analyzing and counting a large amount of detection data to obtain a pressure threshold suitable for left and right ear judgment.

In some embodiments, the sensor is a temperature sensor, and the detected value is a temperature threshold;

Under predetermined conditions,

When the temperature threshold is greater than the temperature threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is in the right ear wearing state, and when the temperature threshold is less than the temperature threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is in the left ear wearing state;

When the temperature threshold is greater than the temperature threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is in the right ear wearing state, and when the temperature threshold is smaller than the temperature threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is in the left ear wearing state.

As shown in Figure 1, since the contact area of the earphone at the first position of the ear is large, the temperature value detected at the first position is greatly affected by the temperature of the human body, and the contact area of the earphone at the second position of the ear is smaller. The temperature detected by the location is less affected by the body temperature. At this time, when the in-ear earphone is in the state of being worn on the right ear, the sensor is used to detect the temperature value of the first position of the ear of the right ear, and the detected temperature value is relatively large. On the contrary, when the in-ear earphone is in the state of being worn on the left ear, the sensor is used to detect the temperature value of the second position of the ear of the left ear, and the detected temperature value is small.

Therefore, when the sensor of the first earphone detects that the temperature value is greater than the temperature threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is worn on the right ear, and when the temperature value is less than the temperature threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is worn on the left ear. When the sensor of the second earphone detects that the temperature value is greater than the temperature threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is worn on the right ear, and when the temperature value is less than the temperature threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is worn on the left ear.

In some embodiments, the sensor is a light sensor, and the detected value is the amount of incoming light;

Under predetermined conditions,

When the incoming light amount is less than the light incoming amount threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is in the right ear wearing state, and when the incoming light amount is greater than the light incoming amount threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is in the left ear wearing state;

When the incoming light amount is less than the light incoming amount threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is in the left ear wearing state, and when the incoming light amount is greater than the light incoming amount threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is in the right ear wearing state.

The light sensor has the functions of self-illumination and self-reception. The wearing state is judged according to the amount of light received. The light sensor can sense visible light signals or non-visible light signals. As shown in Figure 1, due to the large contact area of the earphone at the first position of the ear, the first position has a greater impact on the light transmission, and the amount of incoming light reflected by the first position into the light sensor is small, and the amount of incoming light detected is relatively small. Small, the contact area of the earphone at the second position of the ear is smaller, the second position has less influence on the light transmission, the amount of incoming light reflected by the second position into the light sensor is larger, and the amount of incoming light detected is larger. At this time, when the in-ear earphone is in the state of being worn on the right ear, the sensor is used to detect the amount of light entering the first position of the ear of the right ear. On the contrary, when the in-ear earphone is in the state of being worn on the left ear, the sensor is used to detect the amount of light entering the second position of the ear of the left ear.

Therefore, when the sensor of the first earphone detects that the incoming light amount is greater than the incoming light amount threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is worn on the right ear, and when the incoming light amount is less than the incoming light amount threshold, it is determined that the first earphone is worn in the left ear. When the sensor of the second earphone detects that the incoming light amount is greater than the incoming light amount threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is worn on the right ear, and when the incoming light amount is less than the incoming light amount threshold, it is determined that the second earphone is worn in the left ear.

Here, the light input threshold can be obtained by pre-detecting the light input at the first position and the second position when the in-ear headphones are worn by different people, and by analyzing and counting a large amount of detection data to obtain a light input threshold suitable for left and right ear judgment.

In some embodiments, the predetermined condition includes any one of the following: the first earphone and the second earphone are in a communication disconnection state; the first earphone and the second earphone are in a communication connection state , and the first earphone or the second earphone is in an in-ear state; and the first earphone and the second earphone are in a communication connection state, and the first earphone and the second earphone are in an in-ear state.

That is to say, the earphone detection method provided by the embodiments of the present application can be implemented for one earphone alone; or can be implemented when two earphones are in a communication connection state, only one earphone is in an in-ear state, or two earphones are in an in-ear state at the same time.

Further, in some embodiments, the first earphone is used as the receiving end when the first earphone is in the wearing state detection, the first earphone and the second earphone are in a communication connection state, and the first earphone and the second earphone are in a communication connection state. The headset is in the in-ear state, as shown in Figure 4, the method further includes:

Step 401: the first earphone receives the second detection information sent by the second earphone;

In some embodiments, the method further includes: within a preset time period, the first earphone does not receive the second detection information sent by the second earphone, and the first earphone is based on the first detection information , and determine that the first earphone is in a left-ear wearing state or a right-ear wearing state.

That is, if the first earphone times out when receiving the second detection information, the first earphone does not need to refer to the detection information of the second earphone for judgment, and directly determines the current wearing state according to the first detection information.

Step 402: when the first detection information of the first earphone itself is consistent with the second detection information, it is determined that the first detection information is wrong;

Wherein, the detection information (including the first detection information and the second detection information) may be the wearing state of the left earphone or the wearing state of the right earphone.

In some embodiments, when it is determined that the detection information is wrong (here, the first detection information is wrong), the method further includes: re-executing the wireless in-ear headphone detection method; or generating and outputting prompt information of the detection error.

That is to say, if the first detection information and the second detection information are consistent, it means that two earphones are worn on one ear, and there must be an earphone detection error, and prompt information (for example, the prompt sound of Didi or abnormal light) can be generated. signal), prompting the user to manually find the problem. Or generate a re-detection instruction to control the first earphone and the second earphone to perform the detection operation again.

Step 403: When the first detection information of the first earphone itself is consistent with the second detection information, it is determined that the first detection information is correct.

That is to say, if both earphones are in the wearing state, mutual verification can also be performed according to their respective detection information, so as to improve the detection accuracy.

When the second earphone is in the wearing state detection, the second earphone serves as the receiving end, the first earphone and the second earphone are in the communication connection state, and the first earphone and the second earphone are in the in-ear state, as shown in FIG. 5 , the method further includes :

Step 501: the second earphone receives the first detection information sent by the first earphone;

In some embodiments, the method further includes: within a preset time period, the second earphone does not receive the first detection information sent by the first earphone, and the second earphone is based on the second detection information , and determine that the second earphone is in a left ear wearing state or a right ear wearing state.

That is to say, if the second earphone times out when receiving the first detection information, the second earphone also does not need to refer to the detection information of the first earphone for judgment, and directly determines the current wearing state according to the second detection information.

Step 502: when the second detection information of the second earphone itself is consistent with the first detection information, determine that the second detection information is wrong;

In some embodiments, when it is determined that the detection information is wrong (here, the second detection information is wrong), the method further includes: re-executing the wireless in-ear headphone detection method; or generating and outputting prompt information of the detection error.

Step 503: When the second detection information of the second earphone itself is inconsistent with the first detection information, it is determined that the second detection information is correct; wherein the detection information is the left earphone wearing state or the right ear wearing state.

In some embodiments, the detection information (including the first detection information and the second detection information) may also be a detection value.

Correspondingly, the first earphone and the second earphone are in a communication connection state, and the first earphone and the second earphone are in an in-ear state, and the method further includes:

the first earphone receives the second detection information sent by the second earphone;

When the wearing state represented by the first detection information is consistent with the wearing state represented by the second detection information, it is determined that the first detection information is incorrect;

When the wearing state represented by the first detection information and the wearing state represented by the second detection information are inconsistent, it is determined that the first detection information is correct.

or

The second earphone receives the first detection information sent by the first earphone;

In some embodiments, the method further includes: when it is determined that the first detection information is correct, controlling the first earphone to work in an earphone playback mode corresponding to the wearing state; when it is determined that the second detection information is correct, controlling the second earphone to work in the same The headset playback mode corresponding to the wearing state.

In this way, there is no need to fix the left and right earphones for the in-ear headphones, and the left and right earphones do not need to be fixed for the wireless in-ear headphones, but the wearing status of the left and right earphones is detected by the set sensor, so as to flexibly set the playback mode of the left and right earphones, to avoid the wrong application playback due to the user's wearing. effect, improve the experience of using wireless headphones. In addition, the left and right earphones can be set to be exactly the same, which also saves design costs and manufacturing costs.

It should be noted that the first earphone and the second earphone are only for distinguishing the two earphones of the wireless earphone, the first earphone can also be regarded as the second earphone, and the second earphone can also be regarded as the first earphone.

On the basis of the above-mentioned method for detecting wireless in-ear headphones, the sensor is further illustrated by taking an area sensor as an example. FIG. 6 is a fourth schematic flowchart of the method for detecting wireless in-ear headphones in the embodiment of the application, as shown in FIG. 6 . , the method includes:

Step 601: the earphone is in the wearing state;

Step 602: Determine whether the two earphones are in a connected state, if not, go to Step 603; if so, go to Step 604;

Step 603: the contact area value of the local end>the area threshold; if yes, determine the right earphone; if not, determine the left earphone;

Here, if the local earphone is the first earphone, the opposite end earphone is the second earphone; if the local earphone is the second earphone, the opposite end earphone is the first earphone.

That is to say, if the two earphones are in a disconnected state, the left and right earphones are identified by the single-ear detection method, and there is no need for the two earphones to transmit the detection results for mutual verification.

In some embodiments, if two earphones are in a connected state, but one earphone is in the in-ear state and the other earphone is in the non-in-ear state, there is no need for the two earphones to transmit the detection results for mutual verification. In this state, it can also be understood that Timeout for one earphone to receive a heartbeat from the other earphone.

Step 604: request to obtain the peer detection signal;

That is to say, if the two earphones are in a connected state and both are in an in-ear state, mutual verification can be performed according to their respective detection results to improve the detection accuracy.

If the two earphones are in the connected state, but both earphones are not in the earphone state, the left and right ear judgments are not performed.

Step 605: Determine whether the peer detection message times out, if yes, go to Step 603; if not, go to Step 606;

Step 606: determine the contact area value of the opposite end < the contact area value of the local end, if yes, determine as the right earphone; if not, determine as the left earphone;

That is to say, if the local earphone is worn on the right ear and the sensor is close to the tragus, the opposite end earphone is worn on the left ear, the sensor is close to the opposite tragus, and the local contact area value collected by the sensor of the local earphone is larger than that of the opposite end. Contact area value.

If the local earphone is worn on the left ear and the sensor is close to the opposite tragus, the opposite earphone is worn on the right ear and the sensor is close to the tragus, and the local contact area value collected by the sensor of the local earphone is smaller than the opposite end contact area value.

By adopting the above-mentioned automatic identification technology for left and right earphones, there is no need to distinguish the left and right earphones in terms of structure and appearance of the earphones, nor does the earphone manufacturer need to distinguish the left and right earphones during production. The contact area value can be collected by the contact area sensor set on the earphone, and the left and right earphones can be distinguished according to the size of the contact area value, so as to ensure the user's wearing experience and the playback effect of the earphone.
