[0037] It should be noted that like reference numerals and letters refer to similar items in the following figures, and therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it need not be further discussed in subsequent figures.

[0038] The present disclosure provides an earphone system. Figure 1 As shown, the headset system 1000 may include a camera module 1100 , a gesture recognition module 1200 , a control module 1300 and a communication module 1400 .

[0039] The camera module 1100 is used to collect images of the user's hands.

[0040] The gesture recognition module 1200 is used to recognize a target gesture performed by a user according to a hand image.

[0041] The control module 1300 is used to generate a control instruction corresponding to the target gesture.

[0042] The communication module 1400 is used to transmit the control instruction to the electronic device connected to the earphone system 1000, so that the electronic device performs the operation corresponding to the control instruction.

[0043] In this embodiment, the electronic device may be connected to the headset system wirelessly or by wire, so that the headset system can communicate with the electronic device. For example, the wireless connection method may include Bluetooth connection, Wi-Fi connection, radio frequency connection, ZigBee connection, etc., and the wired connection method may include USB data cable connection, headset cable connection, etc.

[0044] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the camera module 1100 is arranged at a position so that the camera module 1100 can capture images in front of the user and / or images on both sides of the left and right ears of the user when the earphones are worn, so that the camera module 1100 can easily capture images of the user's hands, thereby facilitating gesture recognition and control of the electronic device.

[0045] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the gesture recognition module 1200 is also used to extract hand features in the hand image; and obtain the target gesture based on the hand features and a pre-trained machine learning model.

[0046] In this embodiment, feature extraction is the process of converting the hand region into a feature vector, and commonly used methods include at least one of a geometric feature extraction method, a texture feature extraction method, and a key point extraction method. Among them, the geometric features may include the length, angle, and area of ​​the palm of the hand, etc.; the texture features may include the texture and details of the hand skin, etc.; the key points of the hand may include the fingertips, joints, etc.

[0047] Gesture recognition is the process of classifying gestures using extracted features. The machine learning model used for gesture recognition may include at least one of a support vector machine (SVM), a hidden Markov model (HMM), and a convolutional neural network (CNN).

[0048] Support vector machine (SVM) is a commonly used machine learning algorithm suitable for small sample and high-dimensional classification problems.

[0049] Hidden Markov Model (HMM) is suitable for processing time series data, such as dynamic gesture recognition.

[0050] Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is a deep learning model suitable for image classification tasks with high recognition accuracy.

[0051] The gesture recognition module 1200 of this embodiment uses a machine learning model to perform gesture recognition, and can determine whether the user performs a valid gesture based on the hand image, and the classification of the valid gesture when the user performs a valid gesture.

[0052] The valid gestures may also be pre-set according to the application scenario or specific needs. For example, the valid gestures may include at least one of: waving left, waving right, waving up, waving down, sliding left, sliding right, sliding up, sliding down, circling fingers, etc.

[0053] Then, the gesture recognition module 1200 can be a recognition result of the user not performing a valid gesture when the user does not perform a valid gesture, and a recognition result of the classification of the valid gestures performed by the user when the user performs a valid gesture, that is, the target gesture, such as waving left, waving right, waving up, waving down, sliding left, sliding right, sliding up, sliding down, and circling.

[0054] Through this embodiment, the headset system can support the recognition of multiple valid gestures, meet multiple control requirements for electronic devices, and improve the accuracy and robustness of gesture recognition results. Moreover, the camera module and gesture recognition module can work stably under different lighting conditions, ensuring the reliability of gesture recognition results and reducing the occurrence of misidentification and missed recognition. In addition, the efficient machine learning model can ensure the real-time performance of gesture recognition, so that the headset system can respond instantly to the gesture operations performed by the user, improving the user experience.

[0055] In this embodiment, control instructions corresponding to multiple valid gestures can be set in advance according to application scenarios or specific needs. For example, the control instruction corresponding to the valid gesture of waving to the left can be set as the control instruction for answering the call, the control instruction corresponding to the valid gesture of waving to the right can be set as the control instruction for hanging up the call, the control instruction corresponding to the valid gesture of waving upward can be set as the control instruction for playing music, the control instruction corresponding to the valid gesture of waving downward can be set as the control instruction for pausing music, the control instruction corresponding to the valid gesture of sliding to the left can be set as the control instruction for reducing the playback volume, the control instruction corresponding to the valid gesture of sliding to the right can be set as the control instruction for increasing the playback volume, the control instruction corresponding to the valid gesture of sliding upward can be set as the control instruction for switching to the previous song, the control instruction corresponding to the valid gesture of sliding downward can be set as the control instruction for switching to the next song, and the control instruction corresponding to the valid gesture of circling fingers can be set as the control instruction for activating the voice assistant.

[0056] Furthermore, when the electronic device receives a control instruction sent by the headphone system, it performs an operation corresponding to the control instruction, so that the headphone system can control the electronic device according to the user's gestures.

[0057] Through the embodiments of the present disclosure, a camera module and a gesture recognition module are integrated into the headset system to realize the gesture recognition function, thereby increasing the functionality of the headset system and providing a user with an interactive experience. Moreover, the user does not need to touch the headset, but only needs to perform corresponding gestures to control the electronic device through the headset system, thereby providing a more convenient user experience.

[0058] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 2 As shown, the headset system 1000 further includes an image preprocessing module 1500, which is used to perform preprocessing operations on the hand image, and the preprocessing operations include noise reduction and / or contrast enhancement.

[0059] In this embodiment, the hand image is preprocessed before gesture recognition, which can improve the quality of the hand image and improve the accuracy and stability of the gesture recognition results obtained subsequently based on the preprocessed hand image.

[0060] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 2 As shown, the headset system 1000 further includes a hand detection module 1600, which is used to detect a hand region in a hand image. The gesture recognition module 1200 is used to recognize a target gesture performed by a user according to the hand region.

[0061] In this embodiment, the hand detection module 1600 detects and extracts the hand region in the hand image, and the gesture recognition module 1200 recognizes the target gesture performed by the user based on the hand region.

[0062] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the hand detection module 1600 is used to detect the hand area in the hand image based on skin color, shape or deep learning.

[0063] Detecting the hand area based on skin color utilizes the skin color model to detect the hand area in the hand image, but it is easily affected by lighting changes and background interference.

[0064] Shape-based detection of the hand area is to detect the hand area in the hand image using the shape features of the hand, such as contours, edges, etc.

[0065] Hand region based on deep learning: It uses deep learning models such as convolutional neural network (CNN) to detect the hand region in the hand image with high accuracy and robustness.

[0066] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the hand detection module 1600 is used to remove hand regions whose size is less than or equal to a set size.

[0067] In this embodiment, the set size may be set in advance according to the farthest distance between the hand of the user wearing the headset and the camera module during the wearing process of the headset.

[0068] The hand detection module 1600 of this embodiment eliminates the hand area whose size is less than or equal to the set size, which can ensure that the hands in the hand area used for gesture recognition are the hands of the user wearing the headset, rather than the hands of other users, so as to avoid other users performing valid gestures and causing the electronic device to produce erroneous operations.

[0069] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the gesture recognition module 1200 is also used to iterate the machine learning model according to the hand features and the target gesture.

[0070] In this embodiment, when it is recognized that the user performs any valid gesture, the machine learning model is iterated according to the hand features extracted from the hand image of the gesture recognition module 1200 and the recognized target gesture.

[0071] By iterating the machine learning model, this embodiment can enable the machine learning model to learn the personalized gesture operations of the user wearing the headset, thereby improving the recognition efficiency of the machine learning model. It can perform gesture recognition more quickly and send the control instructions corresponding to the recognized target gesture to the electronic device, so that the electronic device can respond in time, reduce gesture control delay, reduce the power consumption of the headset system, and extend the battery life of the headset system.

[0072] In one embodiment, through the highly integrated SiP (system-in-package) technology, multiple functional modules such as the image preprocessing module 1500, the hand detection module 1600, the gesture recognition module 1200 are integrated into one chip, which can reduce the size and power consumption of the headset system.

[0073] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 2 As shown, the earphone system 1000 also includes an environment detection module 1700 and an alarm module 1800. The environment detection module 1700 is used to detect whether the environment where the user is located is dangerous based on the hand image; the alarm module 1800 is used to issue an alarm prompt when it is detected that the environment where the user is located is dangerous.

[0074] In one embodiment, the environment detection module 1700 can detect whether there are high-speed objects (such as vehicles, etc.) approaching the user around the user based on the hand image captured by the camera module 1100. If so, it is determined that the environment in which the user is located is dangerous.

[0075] In another embodiment, the environment detection module 1700 may also determine that the environment in which the user is located is dangerous when it detects that the distance between the user and the dangerous object is less than or equal to a set distance based on the hand image captured by the camera module 1100.

[0076] In this embodiment, the alarm module 1800 may issue an alarm voice or a vibration reminder when the environment detection module 1700 detects that the environment in which the user is located is dangerous, so as to remind the user to stay away from the danger and ensure the user's safety.

[0077] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 2 As shown, the earphone system 1000 also includes a wearing detection module 1900, which is used to detect whether the earphone is in a wearing state; the camera module 1100 is used to capture the user's hand image when the earphone is in a wearing state.

[0078] In this embodiment, when the user is not wearing the earphone, that is, the earphone is not in a wearing state, the user will not perform gestures to control the electronic device through the earphone, and therefore, the camera module 1900 may not capture images.

[0079] Through this embodiment, the power consumption of the earphone system can be reduced.

[0080] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the headset system may further include a radar module, the radar module is used to transmit a radar signal to the user's hand, receive a radar echo signal reflected by the user's hand, and detect the user's hand movement according to the radar echo signal. The control module generates a control instruction corresponding to the target gesture when at least one of the radar module and the gesture recognition module detects that the user performs a target gesture.

[0081] In this embodiment, the radar module may be at least one of an ultrasonic radar module, a millimeter wave radar module, a microwave radar module, and a laser radar module.

[0082] This embodiment uses multi-sensor fusion technology to improve the adaptability of the headset system in different environments and ensure that gesture recognition can work stably under various lighting, temperature and noise conditions.

[0083] The present disclosure further provides an earphone, which may include the earphone system 1000 described in any of the aforementioned embodiments.

[0084] The present disclosure also provides a method for controlling an earphone, which can be implemented by an earphone, and the earphone can be the earphone including the earphone system 1000 in the aforementioned embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0089] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, before executing step S3200, identifying the target gesture performed by the user based on the hand image, the method may further include: detecting a human hand area in the hand image; then, identifying the target gesture performed by the user based on the hand image may include: identifying the target gesture performed by the user based on the human hand area.

[0090] Based on this embodiment, before identifying the target gesture performed by the user based on the human hand region, the method may further include: eliminating the human hand region whose size is less than or equal to the set size.
