Call recording method based on dynamic sampling rate adjustment and Bluetooth earphone

The invention discloses a call recording method based on dynamic sampling rate adjustment and a Bluetooth earphone, and aims to improve the quality and stability of call recording in a wireless transmission environment. According to the method, uplink audio data and downlink audio data are collected at the same time through the Bluetooth headset, and the transmission rate of a downlink data packet is monitored in real time. When the rate is lower than the preset threshold value, the audio sampling rate is automatically reduced from 16 kHz to 8 kHz to adapt to bandwidth limitation, and recording interruption or tone quality reduction is avoided. The adjusted audio data is cached through a double-layer cache mechanism after being coded and compressed, the first cache temporarily stores the adjusted audio data, and the second cache manages data packets to be sent and retransmitted, so that the continuity and integrity of data transmission are ensured. The method is suitable for wireless audio equipment such as a Bluetooth earphone, and the reliability, adaptability and user experience of call recording are effectively improved.

Non-blocking dual driver earphones

A head-worn sound reproduction device is provided in the form of left and right earphones, which can either be clipped to each ear or mounted on other headgear. The earphones deliver high fidelity audio to a user's eardrums from near-ear range, in a lightweight form factor that is fully “non-blocking” (allows coupling in and natural hearing of ambient sound). Each earphone has a woofer component that produces bass frequencies, and a tweeter component that produces treble frequencies. The woofer outputs the bass frequencies from a position close to the ear canal, while the tweeter outputs treble frequencies from a position that is either close to the ear canal or further away. In certain embodiments, the tweeter is significantly further from the ear canal than the woofer, leading to a more expansive perceived “sound stage”, but still with a “pure” listening experience.
