Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of terminal technology, and in particular to a method and electronic device for reminding a hearing-impaired user. Background Art

[0002] Hearing aids can provide convenience for hearing-impaired users and help them hear sounds. In some cases, hearing-impaired users may not be able to hear or hear clearly external sounds. For example, hearing-impaired users may not be able to hear or hear clearly external sounds when they are not wearing hearing aids, when they are wearing hearing aids but the hearing aid microphone is turned off, or when they are wearing hearing aids and connected to a mobile phone to listen to music.

[0003] This can cause numerous inconveniences for hearing-impaired users. For example, hearing-impaired users cannot hear the notification sounds of household appliances. For example, hearing-impaired users cannot hear the reminder sound emitted by the washing machine when the clothes have been washed, or the reminder sound emitted by the microwave oven when the heating is finished. For another example, hearing-impaired users may not be able to hear the alarm sound emitted by an alarm, such as the alarm sound of a smoke alarm. For another example, hearing-impaired users may not be able to hear the ringtone and vibration of the mobile phone when a call comes in, and may miss important calls.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a method and electronic device for reminding hearing-impaired users to help them perceive external sounds. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the present application provides a method and electronic device for reminding hearing-impaired users, which can be based on trust ring technology. One or more electronic devices in the trust ring can collaboratively remind hearing-impaired users through text, voice, vibration, etc., to help hearing-impaired users perceive external sounds.

[0006] In a first aspect, the present application provides a method for reminding a hearing-impaired user. The method is applied to a first electronic device, where the first electronic device is within a first trust ring that also includes one or more second electronic devices.

[0036] Hearing aids can provide convenience for hearing-impaired users. Figure 1 A structural diagram of a hearing aid provided in the related art. Figure 1 As shown, the hearing aid 100 may include a microphone 101 , a signal processing module 102 , a receiver 103 , a wireless communication module 104 , and the like.

[0037] The microphone 101 is used to collect sound and convert it into an electrical signal. For example, the microphone 101 can collect the voice of the user, the voice played by the television or computer, and various sounds in nature. The signal processing module 102 can perform signal processing on the electrical signal input by the microphone 101. For example, the electrical signal can be amplified, noise reduced, and automatically gain controlled. The processed electrical signal can be converted into a sound signal by the receiver 103 and played by the receiver 103. In this way, the hearing aid 100 can enhance the processing of the collected sound signal and play it to the hearing-impaired user, helping the hearing-impaired user to hear the sounds of the outside world.

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, the hearing aid may also include a wireless communication module 104. Wireless communication module 104 is used to establish a wireless connection with electronic devices such as mobile phones or computers and receive audio signals based on wireless communication technology. For example, after the hearing aid 100 establishes a wireless connection with a mobile phone, wireless communication module 104 can receive audio signals sent by the mobile phone. Signal processing module 102 can amplify the audio signal, and receiver 103 converts the audio signal into a sound signal for playback. The wireless communication module can be a Bluetooth module or a wireless Wi-Fi module.

[0039] Figure 1The figure shows a schematic diagram of the structure of a hearing aid with wireless communication function. The hearing aid may not include a wireless communication module. If the hearing aid does not include a wireless communication module, the hearing aid can only receive external sounds through a microphone and cannot receive audio data from electronic devices based on wireless communication technology. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the type of hearing aid, that is, the present solution is applicable to hearing aids with wireless communication and hearing aids without wireless communication. The hearing-impaired user in the embodiment of the present application can be a hearing-impaired user, such as an elderly person, or a hearing-impaired user.

[0040] In some scenarios, hearing aids may not help hearing-impaired users perceive external sounds. For example, a hearing-impaired user may not be wearing a hearing aid. Or, a hearing-impaired user may be wearing a hearing aid but the hearing aid's microphone is turned off. For example, when a hearing aid establishes a Bluetooth connection with a mobile phone to play audio data, the hearing aid's microphone may be turned off, so the hearing aid only receives audio data through the Bluetooth module and no longer collects sound signals. For example, a hearing aid may be connected to a mobile phone via Bluetooth, and the phone plays music through the hearing aid. In this case, the hearing aid's microphone is turned off, and the user can only hear the music played through the hearing aid, but cannot hear other sounds from the outside world. Alternatively, even if the hearing aid establishes a Bluetooth connection with a mobile phone to play audio data, the user may not be able to clearly hear external sounds because the hearing aid is still playing audio data, even if the microphone is turned on. Another example is a hearing-impaired user wearing a hearing aid but setting it to silent mode. In silent mode, the hearing aid's microphone is turned off. Alternatively, a hearing-impaired user may be wearing a hearing aid, but the hearing aid's microphone is turned on, but the hearing aid is far away from the sound source. In the above situation, the microphone cannot collect any sound signal or the collected sound signal is weak, so the hearing aid cannot help the hearing-impaired user hear external sounds.

[0041] For example, a hearing-impaired user does not wear a hearing aid, does not hold the mobile phone, and the mobile phone is far away from the hearing-impaired user. When the mobile phone rings or vibrates after a call comes in, the hearing-impaired user cannot hear the ringing or vibration sound of the mobile phone, and thus cannot feel the ringing or vibration of the mobile phone, causing the hearing-impaired user to miss the call.

[0042] For example, a hearing-impaired user may not be wearing a hearing aid, or may be wearing a hearing aid but the microphone is turned off, or may be resting in a room. In this case, the hearing-impaired user may not be able to hear family members calling them. If a family member falls and calls the hearing-impaired user, the hearing-impaired user may not be able to respond and provide assistance in a timely manner.

[0043] Not being able to hear or hear clearly the outside world can cause many inconveniences in life and even safety hazards for hearing-impaired users. For example, hearing-impaired users cannot communicate normally with other users. For another example, hearing-impaired users cannot perceive the reminder sounds emitted by home appliances, causing inconvenience in life. Reminder sounds emitted by home appliances can include, for example, the reminder sound emitted by a microwave oven after heating food, the reminder sound emitted by a washing machine after washing clothes, the sound of a doorbell, the alarm sound emitted by an alarm, etc. For another example, even if a hearing-impaired child is wearing a hearing aid and the microphone of the hearing aid is turned on, the child approaches the driving lane on his own and the parent calls from a distance. Because the child is far away from the parent, he cannot hear the parent's voice.

[0044] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a method to remind hearing-impaired users and help them perceive external sounds. This solution is based on trust ring technology. One or more electronic devices in the trust ring work together to remind the user, preventing the hearing-impaired user from missing external sounds.

[0045] First, a trust ring is a technical solution based on an identity authentication system that enables trusted interconnection across multiple devices across systems, enabling the intelligent flow and sharing of services between electronic devices. Multiple electronic devices can establish a trust relationship through trusted authentication, forming a trust ring. There are various ways to form a trust ring with multiple electronic devices. For example, multiple electronic devices logged into the same account and trusting each other form a trust ring. Another example is that multiple electronic devices perform trusted authentication through a protocol, establishing a trust relationship and forming a trust ring. When electronic devices within a trust ring are connected to the same local area network, they can synchronize data over the LAN, achieving device collaboration. Alternatively, when Bluetooth is turned on and the distances between electronic devices are within a preset range, multiple electronic devices within the trust ring can establish a Bluetooth network for data synchronization. Alternatively, when WLAN is turned on and the distances between electronic devices are within a preset range, multiple electronic devices within the trust ring can establish a Wi-Fi direct connection for data synchronization.

[0046] For example, Figure 2 As shown, mobile phones, smart speakers, smart watches, smart TVs, and smart home devices (such as smart desk lamps) can log in to the personal account of the hearing-impaired user and connect to the local area network of the hearing-impaired user's residence, forming a trust circle. This trust circle can also include electronic devices such as hearing aids and smart appliances (such as microwave ovens and alarms). Electronic devices within the trust circle communicate with each other. For example, a mobile phone can communicate with multiple electronic devices in the trust circle at the same time.

[0047] The embodiment of the present application provides a method for reminding a hearing-impaired user, which is applied to a first electronic device in a trust ring, such as Figure 2The first electronic device receives a first signal, which may be a prompt signal emitted by other devices in the environment where the first electronic device is located (such as a microwave oven), a call signal of the first user in the environment where the first electronic device is located, and an incoming call signal. In response to the first signal, the first electronic device may, based on the connection status of the hearing aid and the wearing status of the hearing aid, instruct the electronic devices in the trust circle to send a reminder message by at least one of playing, vibrating, displaying, and directional playback. Specifically, the first electronic device is connected to the hearing aid and the user wears the hearing aid, and the first electronic device plays a reminder message through the hearing aid. The third electronic device is connected to the hearing aid and the user wears the hearing aid, and the first electronic device instructs the third electronic device to play a reminder message through the hearing aid. In this way, if the hearing aid is connected to an electronic device in the trust circle, such as the first electronic device or the third electronic device, and the user wears the hearing aid, the first electronic device or the third electronic device may play a reminder message through the hearing aid to accurately remind the user. If the hearing aid is not connected to any electronic device in the trust circle, the electronic device in the trust circle may send a reminder message to remind the user by at least one of playing, vibrating, displaying, and directional playback.

[0048] by Figure 2 For example, a mobile phone receives a reminder signal from a microwave oven, indicating that the microwave is finished heating food. If the phone is connected to a hearing aid and the user is wearing the hearing aid, the phone plays a reminder message through the hearing aid. If the TV is connected to a hearing aid and the user is wearing the hearing aid, the phone instructs the TV to play a reminder message through the hearing aid. If the user is not wearing a hearing aid, one or more electronic devices in the trusted ring, including the phone, smart TV, smart desk lamp, smart watch, and smart speaker, will display a reminder message, play a reminder message, or vibrate.

[0049] The method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to electronic devices with data processing capabilities. The above-mentioned electronic devices may include servers, mobile phones, tablet computers, laptops, personal computers (PCs), ultra-mobile personal computers (UMPCs), handheld computers, netbooks, smart home devices (such as smart TVs, smart screens, large screens, smart speakers, smart air conditioners, etc.), personal digital assistants (PDAs), wearable devices (such as smart watches, smart bracelets, etc.), vehicle-mounted devices, virtual reality devices, etc., and the embodiments of the present application do not impose any restrictions on this. In the embodiments of the present application, the above-mentioned electronic devices are electronic devices that can run operating systems and install applications. Optionally, the operating system running on the electronic device may be system, system, System, etc.

[0050] For example, please refer to Figure 3 , which shows a schematic structural diagram of an electronic device 300. The electronic device 300 may include a processor 310, an external memory interface 320, an internal memory 321, an audio module 330, a speaker 330A, a microphone 330B, a display 340, a communication module 350, a power module 360, an input device 370, a sensor module 380, etc. The sensor module 380 may include a pressure sensor, a touch sensor, etc.

[0051] It should be understood that the structure illustrated in the embodiments of the present application does not constitute a specific limitation on the electronic device 300. In other embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 300 may include more or fewer components than shown, or may combine or separate certain components, or arrange the components differently. The illustrated components may be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of software and hardware.

For example, the processor 310 may include an application processor (AP), a modem processor, a graphics processing unit (GPU), an image signal processor (ISP), a controller, a video codec, a digital signal processor (DSP), and / or a neural-network processing unit (NPU). Different processing units may be independent components or integrated into one or more processors. In some embodiments, the electronic device 300 may also include one or more processors 310.

[0053] The controller is the nerve center and command center of the electronic device 300. It can generate operation control signals according to command operation codes and timing signals to complete the control of command acquisition and execution.

[0054] The application processor can run the operating system of electronic device 300, which is used to manage the hardware and software resources of electronic device 300. For example, it manages and configures memory, determines the priority of system resource supply and demand, controls input and output devices, operates the network, manages the file system, and manages drivers. The operating system can also be used to provide an operation interface for users to interact with the system. Various software can be installed in the operating system, such as drivers and application programs (apps).

[0055] The NPU is a neural network (NN) computing processor. Drawing on the structure of biological neural networks, such as the transmission patterns between neurons in the human brain, it rapidly processes input information and can continuously self-learn. The NPU can enable applications such as intelligent cognition in electronic device 300.

[0056] Processor 310 may also include a memory for storing commands and data. In some embodiments, the memory in processor 310 is a cache memory. This memory can store commands or data that have just been used or are being recycled by processor 310. If processor 310 needs to use the command or data again, it can directly retrieve it from the memory. This avoids duplicate accesses, reduces processor 310 latency, and thus improves system efficiency.

[0057] In some embodiments, the processor 310 may include one or more interfaces. The interfaces may include an inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interface, an integrated circuit sound (I2S) interface, a pulse code modulation (PCM) interface, a universal asynchronous receiver / transmitter (UART) interface, a mobile industry processor interface (MIPI), a general-purpose input / output (GPIO) interface, a SIM card interface, and / or a USB interface.

[0058] It is understood that the interface connection relationship between the modules illustrated in the embodiment of the present application is merely an illustrative illustration and does not constitute a structural limitation on the electronic device 300. In other embodiments of the present application, the electronic device 300 may also adopt a different interface connection method from the above embodiment, or a combination of multiple interface connection methods.

[0059] The external memory interface 320 can be used to connect an external memory card, such as a Micro SD card, to expand the storage capacity of the electronic device 300. The external memory card communicates with the processor 310 via the external memory interface 320 to implement data storage functions. For example, files such as music and videos can be stored on the external memory card.

[0060] The internal memory 321 can be used to store one or more computer programs, which include commands. The processor 310 can enable the electronic device 300 to execute the application running method provided in some embodiments of the present application, as well as various applications and data management, etc. by running the above-mentioned commands stored in the internal memory 321. The internal memory 321 may include a code storage area and a data storage area. Among them, the data storage area can store data created during the use of the electronic device 300, etc. In addition, the internal memory 321 may include a high-speed random access memory, and may also include a non-volatile memory, such as one or more disk storage components, flash memory components, universal flash storage (UFS), etc. In some embodiments, the processor 310 can enable the electronic device 300 to execute the application running method provided in the embodiments of the present application, as well as other applications and data management, by running commands stored in the internal memory 321, and / or commands stored in a memory provided in the processor 310.

[0061] The electronic device 300 can implement audio functions through the audio module 330, speaker 330A, microphone 330B, and application processor. For example, music playback, recording, etc. The audio module 330 is used to convert digital audio information into analog audio signal output, and is also used to convert analog audio input into digital audio signals. The audio module 330 can also be used to encode and decode audio signals. In some embodiments, the audio module 330 can be provided in the processor 310, or some functional modules of the audio module 330 can be provided in the processor 310.

[0062] The speaker 330A, also called a "horn", is used to convert audio electrical signals into sound signals.

[0063] Microphone 330B, also known as a "microphone" or "speaker," is used to convert sound signals into electrical signals. A user can speak by placing their mouth close to microphone 330B, inputting the sound signal into microphone 330B. For example, in the embodiment of the present application, electronic device 300 can collect user voice data and preset sound data, such as reminder sounds from household appliances, where reminder sounds from household appliances can include alarm sounds, doorbell sounds, and the like.

[0064] The communication function of the electronic device 300 can be implemented through the antenna 1, the antenna 2 and the communication module 350.

[0065] The communication module 350 can provide wireless communication solutions including cellular, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth (BT), wireless data transmission modules (for example, 433MHz, 868MHz, 915MHz) applied to the electronic device 300. The communication module 350 can be one or more devices integrating at least one communication processing module. The communication module 350 receives electromagnetic waves via antenna 1 or antenna 2, filters and frequency modulates the electromagnetic wave signals, and sends the processed signals to the processor 310. The communication module 350 can also receive the signal to be sent from the processor 310, frequency modulate it, amplify it, and convert it into electromagnetic waves for radiation through antenna 1 or antenna 2. For example, in an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device 300 can send a reminder message to the second electronic device or the third electronic device through wireless communication technology. The electronic device 300 can receive reminder signals from household appliances through wireless communication technology.

[0066] Electronic device 300 implements display functionality through a GPU, display screen 340, and an application processor. The GPU is a microprocessor for image processing that connects display screen 340 and the application processor. The GPU is used to perform mathematical and geometric calculations for graphics rendering.

The pressure sensor is used to sense pressure signals and can convert pressure signals into electrical signals. When a touch operation is applied to the display screen 340, the electronic device 300 detects the strength of the touch operation based on the pressure sensor. The electronic device 300 can also calculate the position of the touch based on the detection signal of the pressure sensor. The touch sensor, also known as a "touch panel", can form a touch screen, also known as a "touch screen", with the display screen 340. The touch sensor is used to detect touch operations applied thereto or near it. The touch sensor can pass the detected touch operation to the application processor to determine the type of touch event. Visual output related to the touch operation can also be provided through the display screen 340. For example, in an embodiment of the present application, the display screen 340 can respond to a control instruction from the electronic device 300 to display a reminder message. Alternatively, the display screen 340 can respond to a control instruction from the electronic device 300 to control the display screen to flash.

[0069] The power module 360 ​​can be used to supply power to various components included in the electronic device 300. In some embodiments, the power module 360 ​​can be a battery, such as a rechargeable battery.

[0070] Input device 370 may include a keyboard, a mouse, and the like. The keyboard is used to input English letters, numbers, punctuation marks, and the like into electronic device 300, thereby issuing commands to electronic device 300 and inputting data. The mouse is an indicator for the vertical and horizontal coordinates of the display system of electronic device 300 and is used to input commands to electronic device 300. Input device 370 may be connected to electronic device 300 via a wired connection, for example, via a GPIO interface, a USB interface, or the like. Input device 370 may also be connected to electronic device 300 wirelessly, for example, via Bluetooth, infrared, or the like.

[0071] Taking the electronic device 300 as an example, which is a mobile phone, the software system of the electronic device 300 can adopt a layered architecture, an event-driven architecture, a micro-kernel architecture, a microservice architecture, or a cloud architecture. In the embodiment of the present invention, the Android system with a layered architecture is used as an example to illustrate the software structure of the electronic device 300.

[0072] Figure 4 It is a block diagram of the software and hardware structure of the electronic device 300 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0073] A layered architecture divides software into several layers, each with distinct roles and responsibilities. Layers communicate with each other through software interfaces. In some embodiments, the Android system is divided into four layers: from top to bottom: the application layer, the application framework layer, the Android runtime and system libraries (not shown), and the kernel layer.

[0074] The application layer can include a series of application packages.

[0075] like Figure 4 As shown, the application package may include gallery, call, map, navigation, WLAN, Bluetooth, music, video, and other applications.

[0076] The application framework layer provides an application programming interface (API) and programming framework for the applications in the application layer. The application framework layer includes some predefined functions.

[0077] like Figure 4 As shown, the application framework layer may include a call manager, an audio service, a detection module, a control module, and the like.

[0078] In the embodiment of the present application, the audio service can be used to receive audio data transmitted by the audio driver, such as external sounds collected by a microphone. The audio service can process the received audio data, such as sampling and feature extraction, and then identify whether the audio data is a prompt sound emitted by other devices in the environment of the electronic device 300 or a call sound emitted by the first user in the environment of the electronic device 300.

[0079] After the audio service recognizes that the audio data collected by the microphone is a prompt sound emitted by other devices in the environment where the electronic device 300 is located, or a call sound emitted by the first user in the environment where the electronic device 300 is located, the detection module can be triggered to identify the connection status and wearing status of the hearing aid.

[0080] When the detection module detects that the electronic device 300 is connected to a hearing aid and the hearing aid is in the worn state, the detection module triggers the control module to send a reminder message to the communication module. The communication module can send the reminder message to the hearing aid and trigger the hearing aid to play the reminder message.

[0081] If the detection module detects that a third electronic device in the trusted ring is connected to a hearing aid and the hearing aid is in the worn state, the detection module triggers the control module to send a reminder message to the communication module. The communication module sends the reminder message to the third electronic device and triggers the third electronic device to play the reminder message through the hearing aid.

[0082] If the detection module detects that the hearing aid is not connected to any electronic device within the trust loop, the detection module triggers the control module to send a reminder message to the audio driver. The audio driver sends the reminder message to the speaker, which may have the ability to play the reminder message in a targeted manner. Alternatively, the detection module triggers the control module to send the reminder message to the display driver, which drives the display screen to display the reminder message. Alternatively, the detection module sends the reminder message to the vibration driver, which drives the vibrator to vibrate.

[0083] The detection module detects that the hearing aid is not connected to any electronic device in the trust ring. The detection module also triggers the control module to send a reminder message to the communication module of the electronic device 300, and the communication module sends the reminder message to the third electronic device.

[0084] The communication module 300 in the electronic device can also receive prompt signals sent by other devices in the environment where the first electronic device is located, and after receiving the prompt signal, trigger the detection module to identify the connection status and wearing status of the hearing aid.

[0085] The call manager is used to provide communication functions of the electronic device 300. For example, it manages the call status (including answering, hanging up, etc.). After receiving the first incoming call, the call manager can also trigger the detection module to identify the connection status of the hearing aid and the wearing status of the hearing aid.

[0086] The kernel layer is the layer between hardware and software. The kernel layer may include display drivers, audio drivers, sensor drivers, vibration drivers, etc.

[0087] The hardware layer may include microphones, speakers, displays, vibrators, SIM interfaces, communication modules, etc.

[0088] The following describes a method and electronic device for reminding a hearing-impaired user provided by an embodiment of the present application in conjunction with the embodiments and drawings.

[0089] The electronic devices within the first trust ring include a first electronic device and one or more second electronic devices. The first electronic device can obtain a first signal, wherein the first signal can be one of a prompt signal sent by other devices in the environment where the first electronic device is located, a call signal sent by the first user in the environment where the first electronic device is located, and an incoming call signal of the first electronic device. Exemplarily, the first electronic device can receive a prompt signal sent by other devices in the environment where the first electronic device is located. Or one or more second electronic devices in the first trust ring can receive the prompt signal and send the prompt signal to the first electronic device. The first electronic device can receive a call signal sent by the first user in the environment. Or, one or more second electronic devices can receive the call signal and send the call signal to the first electronic device.

[0090] First, this solution is described using the example of a first signal being a prompt signal emitted by another device in the environment of the first electronic device. The other device may be a household appliance in the environment of the first electronic device. The prompt signal may be a sound or a wireless signal. The following describes this solution using the example of a first electronic device receiving a prompt signal from a household appliance, i.e., a prompt signal being a sound.

[0091] The first trust ring may include one or more electronic devices including a microphone, which is used to collect sound data. The sound data is various types of external sounds. The electronic device may be, for example, a mobile phone, a television, a speaker, a smart watch, or other electronic device. Taking a mobile phone as an example, the mobile phone's microphone can collect sound data in real time. The mobile phone's microphone can also collect sound data in real time within a set time period. The mobile phone can display a first settings interface, which includes a first switch. In response to the user turning on the first switch, the mobile phone turns on the microphone's real-time sound reception function. In response to the user turning off the first switch, the mobile phone turns off the microphone's real-time sound reception function.

[0092] One or more electronic devices including a microphone within the first trust ring can collect sound data at the same time. Due to the different placement and performance of electronic devices, the ability of electronic devices to collect sound data and recognize preset sound data is different. The electronic device that pre-collects the preset sound data can execute a method of reminding hearing-impaired users provided in an embodiment of the present application. Among them, the electronic device that pre-collects the preset sound data can be a first electronic device, and the first electronic device is one of the one or more electronic devices including a microphone within the first trust ring. The first electronic device can be, for example, a mobile phone, a television, a speaker, a smart watch or other electronic device. The second electronic device is an electronic device other than the first electronic device within the first trust ring.

[0093] The preset sound data may be a prompt sound emitted by a household appliance, such as a prompt sound emitted by a household appliance, a prompt sound emitted by an alarm, a prompt sound of a doorbell or an alarm clock, etc. The prompt sound emitted by the household appliance may include a prompt sound when the household appliance starts working, a prompt sound when the household appliance ends working, a prompt sound when the household appliance fails to operate, etc.

[0094] It should be understood that the household appliances in the embodiments of the present application mainly refer to various electrical appliances and electronic devices used in homes and similar places. Household appliances are also called civilian appliances or daily appliances. Household appliances can include refrigeration appliances, such as household refrigerators, cold drink machines, etc. Household appliances can also include air conditioners, such as air conditioners, electric fans, etc. Household appliances can also include cleaning appliances, such as washing machines, dryers, sweeping robots, etc. Household appliances can also include kitchen appliances, such as microwave ovens, induction cookers, electric ovens, rice cookers, etc. Household appliances can also include other appliances, such as alarms, doorbells, etc.

[0095] The preset sound data can be pre-configured in electronic devices with microphones within the first trust ring, such as televisions, speakers, and smart watches. After an electronic device (such as a mobile phone) collects external sound, it can identify whether the sound data is the preset sound data. For example, the electronic device can use voice recognition technology to identify whether the sound data is the preset sound data.

[0096] The following takes the first electronic device being a mobile phone as an example, Figure 5 Make an introduction.

[0097] S501: The mobile phone collects preset sound data and identifies whether the mobile phone is connected to the hearing aid and the wearing status of the hearing aid.

[0098] The preset sound data is the prompt sound emitted by household appliances.

[0099] A mobile phone can identify whether the phone is connected to a hearing aid and can also identify the wearing status of the hearing aid. For example, when the phone is connected to the hearing aid, the phone can send a first acquisition instruction to the hearing aid. This first acquisition instruction is used to obtain the wearing status of the hearing aid. In response to this first acquisition instruction, the hearing aid obtains the current wearing status. For example, the hearing aid may include a photoelectric detection module that can sense the user's wearing status using optical sensing principles. After obtaining the current wearing status, the hearing aid can provide feedback to the mobile phone.

[0100] Alternatively, the hearing aid can also be added to the first trust ring. The hearing aid can actively broadcast the wearing status to the electronic devices in the first trust ring when the wearing status changes. For example, after the user wears the hearing aid, the hearing aid detects that the hearing aid is in the worn state, and the hearing aid broadcasts the current state as the worn state to the electronic devices in the first trust ring. After the user takes off the hearing aid, the hearing aid detects that it is not worn, and the hearing aid broadcasts the current state as the not worn state to the electronic devices in the first trust ring. The mobile phone can obtain the last wearing status broadcast by the hearing aid and identify the current wearing status of the hearing aid.

[0101] After the mobile phone collects the preset sound data, it can generate a reminder message. The reminder message corresponds to the preset sound data collected by the mobile phone. For example, if the preset sound data collected by the mobile phone is the sound of a microwave oven finishing heating food, the reminder message may be, for example, "Microwave oven operation end reminder." If the preset sound data collected by the mobile phone is the alarm sound of a natural gas alarm, the reminder message may be, for example, "Danger, natural gas alarm."

[0102] The mobile phone can be configured with a mapping relationship between preset sound data and reminder messages. Based on this mapping relationship, the mobile phone can obtain the reminder message corresponding to the preset sound data. Alternatively, the mobile phone can be configured with a neural network model that has the ability to output reminder messages based on the collected sound data. In this way, the mobile phone can obtain different reminder messages based on different preset sound data collected.

[0103] Afterwards, the phone will execute different actions based on the different wearing and connection status of the hearing aid.

[0104] S502a: If the mobile phone is connected to the hearing aid and the hearing aid is in the worn state, the mobile phone plays a reminder message through the hearing aid.

[0105] If a mobile phone is connected to a hearing aid and the user is wearing the hearing aid, it means that the user is likely to receive the audio data of the mobile phone through the hearing aid. For example, a user wears a hearing aid and connects the mobile phone to listen to music. At this time, the mobile phone can broadcast a reminder message through the hearing aid voice to accurately remind the user. For example, the mobile phone sends the audio data to the hearing aid, and the hearing aid plays the audio data. Alternatively, the mobile phone sends preset sound data to the hearing aid, and the hearing aid generates audio data corresponding to the reminder message and plays it. Optionally, if the mobile phone is connected to the hearing aid and the hearing aid status is worn, the mobile phone's display screen can display a reminder message, or the mobile phone vibrates to remind the user, or the mobile phone flashes to remind the user, etc.

[0106] It should be noted that when a mobile phone is connected to a hearing aid, the phone may be playing audio data (such as music) through the hearing aid when the phone collects the preset sound data. For example, if the phone is playing music through the hearing aid when the phone collects the preset sound data, the phone can pause the music and play a reminder message through the hearing aid. For example, the phone can play the reminder message through the hearing aid n times and then continue playing music. n ≥ 1, where n is an integer.

[0107] S502b, when the mobile phone is connected to the hearing aid and the hearing aid is not worn, the mobile phone sends a reminder message through a first preset method (such as display and vibration), and / or the mobile phone instructs the second electronic device to send a reminder message through a second preset method (such as display and directional playback).

[0108] The first preset mode includes at least one of display, vibration, and directional playback. The second preset mode includes at least one of display, vibration, and directional playback. The first preset mode and the second preset mode are related to the product form of the corresponding electronic device. For example, if the first electronic device is a mobile phone, the first preset mode may include display and vibration. If the first electronic device is a television, the first preset mode may include display and directional playback. If the first electronic device is a speaker, the first preset mode may include directional playback. If the second electronic device is a television, the second preset mode may include display, directional playback, and other modes. If the second electronic device is a speaker, the second preset mode may include directional playback. If the second electronic device is a tablet, the second preset mode may include display, vibration, directional playback, and other modes.

[0109] If a phone is connected to a hearing aid but the hearing aid is not being worn, for example, the user was originally wearing the hearing aid to listen to music and then took it off to do other things, in this case, the electronic device in the first trust ring will remind the user through text, screen flash, vibration, directional playback, etc.

[0110] S502c: If the mobile phone is not connected to a hearing aid, it is determined whether the user is a hearing-impaired user.

[0111] The user (second user) can be the owner of the mobile phone. For example, the mobile phone can identify whether the mobile phone has been connected to a hearing aid. If the mobile phone recognizes that the mobile phone has been connected to a hearing aid, the mobile phone recognizes that the owner of the mobile phone is a hearing-impaired user. Alternatively, the mobile phone can include a hearing assistance service. The hearing assistance service can increase the volume and clarity of the sound, making it easier for hearing-impaired users to listen better. The hearing assistance service can also be called a hearing aid service. If the mobile phone recognizes that the user has used the hearing assistance function, the mobile phone recognizes that the user is a hearing-impaired user.

[0112] If the mobile phone recognizes that the mobile phone has not been connected to a hearing aid, and the user has not used the hearing assistance function in the mobile phone, the mobile phone can further identify whether the hearing aid is within the first trust ring, whether other electronic devices within the first trust ring are connected to the hearing aid, whether other electronic devices within the first trust ring have been connected to the hearing aid before, or whether the user has used the hearing assistance service in other electronic devices, etc., to identify whether the user is a hearing-impaired user. If the mobile phone recognizes that the user is a hearing-impaired user, the mobile phone can execute S503. If the mobile phone recognizes that the user is not a hearing-impaired user, the process ends.

[0113] S503: If the user is hearing-impaired, identify whether the hearing aid is connected to a third electronic device and the wearing status of the hearing aid.

[0114] The third electronic device is an electronic device connected to the hearing aid among one or more second electronic devices in the first trust ring.

[0115] For example, when a hearing aid's connection status changes within the first trust ring, the hearing aid broadcasts the currently connected electronic device to the mobile phone. For example, after the user puts on the hearing aid, the hearing aid can broadcast the currently connected electronic device. Alternatively, when the hearing aid's connection status changes, it can broadcast the connected electronic device. For example, when the hearing aid disconnects from the mobile phone and establishes a connection with the TV, the hearing aid can broadcast the connected electronic device.

[0116] Alternatively, after connecting to the hearing aid, an electronic device within the first trust ring may broadcast a first message to other electronic devices within the first trust ring. Message one indicates that the electronic device is connected to the hearing aid. When the connection is disconnected, the electronic device may broadcast a second message to other electronic devices within the first trust ring. Message two indicates that the electronic device has disconnected from the hearing aid. Based on the broadcast message from the electronic device within the first trust ring, the mobile phone may identify the third electronic device to which the hearing aid is currently connected.

[0117] S504a, if the hearing aid is not connected to any electronic device, the mobile phone sends a reminder message through a first preset method (such as display and vibration), and / or the mobile phone instructs the second electronic device to send a reminder message through a second preset method (such as display and directional playback).

[0118] If the hearing aid is not connected to any electronic device within the first trusted ring, the electronic devices within the first trusted ring will display a reminder message, vibrate, or play a targeted reminder message. For example, a television or large screen can display a reminder message; a smartwatch can display a reminder message, vibrate, or display a splash screen; a speaker can use beamforming technology to play a reminder message directly to the user's ear; and a tablet can display a reminder message, vibrate, or display a splash screen. Optionally, a mobile phone can also display a reminder message, vibrate, or display a splash screen.

[0119] S504b: If the hearing aid is connected to a third electronic device and the hearing aid is in the worn state, the mobile phone instructs the third electronic device to play a reminder message.

[0120] For example, if a user uses a hearing aid to connect to a TV or speakers to listen to music, the phone can instruct the third electronic device to play a precise voice reminder to the user when the user is currently using the hearing aid.

[0121] S504c, if the hearing aid is connected to a third electronic device and the hearing aid is not being worn, the mobile phone sends a reminder message through a first preset method (such as display and vibration), and / or the mobile phone instructs the second electronic device to send a reminder message through a second preset method (such as display and directional playback).

[0122] Usually, when a user wears a hearing aid and connects an electronic product to play audio data, the microphone of the hearing aid is turned off, that is, the hearing aid cannot receive external sounds. Or, even if the microphone of the hearing aid is turned on, the user may not be able to hear external sounds clearly because he is wearing a hearing aid to play audio data. In an embodiment of the present application, after the mobile phone receives the prompt tone emitted by the household appliance, the mobile phone recognizes that the user is wearing a hearing aid and is connected to an electronic device (mobile phone or a third electronic device) to play audio data. The mobile phone can play a reminder message through the hearing aid, or trigger the third electronic device to play a reminder message through the hearing aid, so that the user can be accurately reminded. When the hearing aid is not connected to any electronic device in the first trust ring, the mobile phone can display a reminder message, vibrate or play a reminder message in a targeted manner, and / or the mobile phone can instruct the second electronic device to display a reminder message, vibrate or play a reminder message in a targeted manner.

[0123] Furthermore, when a user is wearing a hearing aid but not connected to an electronic device, or when a hearing-impaired user is not wearing a hearing aid, in order to accurately remind the user, the mobile phone can identify the wearable device currently worn by the user and instruct the wearable device currently worn by the user to vibrate to remind the user. A wearable device can be a portable electronic device that the user wears directly on the body or integrated into the user's clothing or accessories. For example, a wearable device can be a smart watch, smart bracelet, smart glasses, etc. Since the wearable device is worn on the user, instructing the wearable device to vibrate to remind the user can accurately remind the user.

[0124] Taking a smart watch as an example, the wearing status of a smart watch includes being worn and not being worn. Exemplarily, a smart phone may include a photoelectric detection module, which may sense the user's wearing status using the principle of optical sensing. Alternatively, the smart watch may include a sensing device, which may sense the wearing status of the smart watch. The mobile phone may send an acquisition instruction 2 to the smart watch, and the acquisition instruction 2 is used to acquire the wearing status of the smart watch. In response to receiving the acquisition instruction 2, the smart watch may return the current wearing status to the mobile phone. As another example, when the wearing status of the smart watch changes, the smart phone may broadcast the current wearing status to the electronic devices within the first trust ring. The mobile phone may identify the wearing status of the smart watch based on the broadcast message received from the smart watch.

[0125] like Figure 6 As shown, S503b may specifically be S601, S605a may specifically be S602, and S605c may specifically be S603.

[0126] S601: If the mobile phone is connected to a hearing aid and the user is not wearing the hearing aid, but is wearing a wearable device, the mobile phone instructs the wearable device to vibrate.

[0127] In this way, if a user is not wearing a hearing aid but the hearing aid is connected to a mobile phone, for example, the user is originally wearing a hearing aid to listen to music, the user takes off the hearing aid to do other things, and then puts on the wearable electronic device, the mobile phone can instruct the wearable electronic device to vibrate, thereby alerting the user. Optionally, the wearable electronic device may include a display, and the mobile phone can also instruct the wearable electronic device to display a reminder message, a flash screen, or play a targeted reminder message.

[0128] S602: The hearing aid is not connected to any electronic device and the user is not wearing the hearing aid, but the user is wearing a wearable device, and the mobile phone instructs the wearable device to vibrate.

[0129] For example, if the user does not connect the hearing aid to any electronic device, or the user's hearing aid does not have the ability to connect to an electronic device, but the user is wearing a wearable electronic device, the mobile phone can instruct the wearable electronic device to vibrate to remind the user.

[0130] S603: If the hearing aid is connected to a third electronic device and the hearing aid is in a not-worn state, and the user is wearing a wearable device, the mobile phone instructs the wearable device to vibrate.

[0131] For example, when a user originally wears a hearing aid to watch TV, and then takes off the hearing aid to do other things, when the user puts on a wearable electronic device, the mobile phone can instruct the wearable electronic device to vibrate to remind the user.

[0132] The following describes this solution using a TV and a smartwatch as examples of the second electronic device and combining it with specific usage scenarios. Figure 7a For existing related technologies, such as Figure 7a As shown in the figure, the phone, TV, and smartwatch within the trust ring do not respond to the microwave's indication message. After the microwave sends the indication message, the phone will not respond even if it is connected to a hearing aid, nor will it instruct the smartwatch to respond even if it is connected to a hearing aid. Furthermore, the phone will not instruct the TV to respond even if the TV is connected to a hearing aid. In other words, electronic devices within the trust ring will not respond to the microwave's indication message to alert the hearing-impaired user.

[0133] Figure 7b For this program, if Figure 7b As shown, the mobile phone, TV, and smart watch are in the first trust ring. As mentioned above, the prompt signal of the household appliance can also be a wireless signal. Figure 7bThe microwave oven includes a Bluetooth module. After heating food, the microwave oven can send a Bluetooth broadcast. The Bluetooth broadcast includes an indication signal, which indicates that the microwave oven's operating status is: heating is complete. Electronic devices within the first trust ring can receive the broadcast, such as mobile phones, televisions, and smart watches. Due to different device placement, processing performance, and broadcast reception frequencies, electronic devices that have previously received the broadcast can execute the method provided in the embodiments of the present application.

[0134] or, Figure 7b The microwave oven includes a Bluetooth module, and the microwave oven can establish a Bluetooth connection with an electronic device in the first trust ring, such as a mobile phone. After the microwave oven finishes heating the food, it sends an indication signal to the mobile phone via Bluetooth. Or, Figure 7b The microwave oven in the example is also in the first trust ring. After heating the food, the microwave oven sends an indication signal to the electronic devices in the first trust ring. The following example uses a mobile phone receiving the indication signal as an example.

[0135] S701, the mobile phone receives an instruction signal sent by the microwave oven.

[0136] S702: In response to the indication signal, the mobile phone identifies whether the mobile phone is connected to the hearing aid and the wearing status of the hearing aid.

[0137] If the phone recognizes that the phone is connected to a hearing aid and the user is wearing the hearing aid, the phone plays a reminder message. For example, if the user is wearing a hearing aid and listening to music, the phone can pause the music and play the reminder message.

[0138] The reminder message corresponds to the indication signal. Exemplarily, the indication signal may include device type and operating status information. For example, the indication signal may indicate that the microwave oven has finished heating. Based on the indication signal, the mobile phone may generate a reminder message, such as: "The microwave oven has finished heating." The mobile phone may store a mapping between the indication signal and the reminder message, and the mobile phone may receive the reminder message based on the received indication signal and the mapping.

[0139] If the phone detects that the hearing aid is not connected, the phone, TV, or smartwatch in the first trust ring can display a reminder message, vibrate, flash the screen, or play a targeted reminder message to alert the user. The user may not be watching TV or wearing the smartwatch, and may be a certain distance away from the TV or smartwatch. To accurately alert the user, the phone can execute S703.

[0140] S703: If the mobile phone recognizes that the mobile phone is connected to a hearing aid and the user is not wearing the hearing aid, the user's mobile phone recognizes whether the user is wearing a smart watch.

[0141] S704: If the mobile phone recognizes that the user is wearing a smart watch, the mobile phone sends a reminder message to the smart watch.

[0142] S705 : In response to receiving the reminder message, the smart watch vibrates.

[0143] For example, if a user was originally wearing a hearing aid to listen to music, then took off the hearing aid to do housework, and then wore a smartwatch, the phone could instruct the smartwatch to vibrate after receiving a microwave oven signal. If the phone detects that the user is not wearing a smartwatch, for example, if the user was originally wearing a hearing aid to listen to music, then took off the hearing aid to do housework, and also is not wearing a smartwatch, the phone, TV, or smartwatch in the first trust ring could display a reminder message, vibrate, flash the screen, or play a targeted reminder message to alert the user.

[0144] S706: If the mobile phone recognizes that the mobile phone is not connected to a hearing aid, the mobile phone identifies whether the user is a hearing-impaired user.

[0145] The mobile phone determines whether the user is a hearing-impaired user by identifying whether the TV and smart watch in the first trust ring are connected to hearing aids, whether the TV and smart watch in the first trust ring have been connected to hearing aids, whether the mobile phone has been connected to a smart watch, and whether the user has used the hearing assistance function of any electronic device in the first trust ring.

[0146] If the user is not hearing-impaired, the process ends.

[0147] S707: If the user is hearing-impaired, the mobile phone may further identify whether the user is wearing a hearing aid.

[0148] If the user is hearing-impaired and not wearing a hearing aid, the phone, TV, and smartwatch within the first trust ring can display a reminder message, vibrate, flash the screen, or play a targeted reminder message to alert the user. The user may not be watching TV or wearing a smartwatch, and may be a certain distance away from the TV, phone, or smartwatch. To accurately alert the user, the phone can execute S708.

[0149] S708: If the user is a hearing-impaired user and does not wear a hearing aid, the user's mobile phone identifies whether the user is wearing a smart watch.

[0150] S709: If the mobile phone recognizes that the user is wearing a smart watch, the mobile phone sends a reminder message to the smart watch.

[0151] S710: In response to receiving the reminder message, the smart watch vibrates.

[0152] For example, if a hearing-impaired user is not wearing a hearing aid and is doing housework while wearing a hearing aid, the phone can instruct the watch to vibrate to remind the user. If the user is hearing-impaired and does not wear a hearing aid or a smartwatch, the phone, TV, and smartwatch in the first trust ring can display a reminder message, vibrate, flash the screen, or play a targeted reminder message to remind the user.

[0153] S711: If the user is hearing-impaired and wears a hearing aid, the mobile phone further recognizes that the hearing aid is connected to the electronic device.

[0154] If the hearing aid is not connected to a TV or smartwatch, the phone, TV, or smartwatch in the first trust ring can display a reminder message, vibrate, flash the screen, or play a targeted reminder message to alert the user. If the hearing aid is connected to a TV or smartwatch, the phone can instruct the TV or smartwatch to display a reminder message, vibrate, flash the screen, or play a targeted reminder message. Let's take the example of connecting a hearing aid to a TV.

[0155] S712: The hearing aid is connected to the TV, and the mobile phone sends a reminder message to the TV.

[0156] S713 : In response to receiving the reminder message, the television displays the reminder message.

[0157] For example, a hearing-impaired user wearing a hearing aid and connected to a TV, that is, the hearing-impaired user wearing the hearing aid and watching TV, receives a microwave oven notification signal on their phone, and then instructs the TV to display a reminder message to accurately remind the user. Optionally, the TV can also play the reminder message through the hearing aid.

[0158] Combined with the above Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 7b This paper describes a method for electronic devices within a first trust ring to alert users through text, voice, vibration, screen flashing, etc., after receiving a notification tone or signal from a household appliance. Furthermore, electronic devices within the first trust ring can also alert hearing-impaired users to answer calls promptly after receiving an incoming call signal, preventing them from missing important calls.

[0159] The first trusted ring may include electronic devices with voice call capabilities, such as mobile phones, tablets, televisions, smartwatches, and the like. These electronic devices may receive a first incoming call. This first incoming call may be a voice call or a video call. Continuing with the mobile phone example, upon receiving the first incoming call, the mobile phone may trigger simultaneous vibrations on all other electronic devices within the first trusted ring.

[0160] Normally, a mobile phone can trigger electronic devices with call functions in the first trust ring to vibrate or ring simultaneously. At the same time, electronic devices with call functions can also display the incoming call interface, and users can answer the call on any electronic device. However, hearing-impaired users may not be able to perceive the vibration or ringing of electronic devices. For this reason, in this solution, after receiving the first incoming call, the first electronic device can, based on the connection status of the hearing aid and the wearing status of the hearing aid, instruct the electronic devices in the first trust ring (including the first electronic device and / or the second electronic device) to display the incoming call reminder, play the incoming call reminder, and vibrate one or more of them to remind the hearing-impaired user to answer the call. The following takes the first electronic device as a mobile phone and the first signal as the incoming call signal received by the mobile phone as an example, combined with Figure 8 and specific scenarios are introduced.

[0161] S801, the mobile phone receives the first incoming call.

[0162] S802: The mobile phone identifies whether it is connected to the hearing aid and the wearing status of the hearing aid.

[0163] According to the connection status and wearing status of the hearing aid, it can be divided into the following three situations.

[0164] S803a, the mobile phone is connected to the hearing aid and the user wears the hearing aid, and the mobile phone plays an incoming call reminder through the hearing aid.

[0165] Optionally, the phone can vibrate, flash the screen, or display the incoming call information. This information includes the caller ID, location, and the contact associated with the caller ID. An incoming call reminder is a notification message corresponding to the first incoming call. It includes the caller ID and the contact associated with the caller ID. For example, the phone can play "Xiao Zhang calling, 1xxxxxxxxxx" through the hearing aid. This way, the phone can remind the user to answer the call promptly.

[0166] S803b, when the mobile phone is connected to the hearing aid and the hearing aid is not being worn, the mobile phone sends an incoming call reminder through a first preset method (such as display and vibration), and / or the mobile phone instructs the second electronic device to send an incoming call reminder through a second preset method (such as display and directional playback).

[0167] If the mobile phone recognizes that the user is not wearing a hearing aid, the mobile phone triggers one or more electronic devices in the first trust ring to remind the user to answer the first incoming call by means of text, vibration, flash screen, etc. For example, the mobile phone sends the incoming call reminder to the TV, and the TV displays the incoming call information in text, for example, the TV displays "Xiao Zhang calling, 1xxxxxxxxxx". For another example, the mobile phone sends the incoming call reminder to the tablet, and the tablet can vibrate and / or ring. The tablet can display the incoming call reminder interface, and the incoming call reminder interface can include the incoming call information. For example, the mobile phone sends the incoming call reminder to the speaker, and the speaker uses beamforming technology to play "Xiao Zhang calling, 1xxxxxxxxxx" in the user's ear.

[0168] S803c: If the mobile phone is not connected to a hearing aid, identify whether the user is a hearing-impaired user.

[0169] S804: If the user is hearing-impaired, identify a third electronic device connected to the hearing aid and the wearing status of the hearing aid.

[0170] According to the connection status and wearing status of the hearing aid, it can be divided into the following three situations.

[0171] S805a, if the hearing aid is not connected to any electronic device, the mobile phone sends an incoming call reminder through a first preset method (such as display and vibration), and / or the mobile phone instructs a second electronic device to send an incoming call reminder through a second preset method (such as display and directional playback).

[0172] S805b: If the hearing aid is connected to a third electronic device and the hearing aid is in the worn state, the mobile phone instructs the third electronic device to play an incoming call reminder through the hearing aid.

[0173] S805c, if the hearing aid is connected to a third electronic device and the hearing aid is not being worn, the mobile phone issues an incoming call reminder through a first preset method (such as display and vibration), and / or the mobile phone instructs the second electronic device to issue an incoming call reminder through a second preset method (such as display and directional playback).

[0174] The following takes the second electronic device as a TV and a smart watch as an example, Figure 9 This solution is introduced with the help of the following sections and specific usage scenarios.

[0175] S901, the first incoming call sent by a friend or relative’s mobile phone.

[0176] S902: In response to the first incoming call, the mobile phone identifies whether the mobile phone is connected to the hearing aid and the wearing status of the hearing aid.

[0177] If the phone recognizes that the phone is connected to a hearing aid and the user is wearing a hearing aid, the phone plays an incoming call reminder through the hearing aid.

[0178] If the phone recognizes that the phone is not connected to the hearing aid, the phone, TV, or smartwatch in the first trust ring can alert the user through reminder messages, vibration, screen flashing, directional playback of incoming call reminders, etc. The user may not be watching TV or wearing a smartwatch, and may be a certain distance away from the TV or smartwatch. To accurately alert the user, the phone can execute S903.

[0179] S903: If the mobile phone recognizes that the mobile phone is connected to a hearing aid and the user is not wearing the hearing aid, the user's mobile phone recognizes whether the user is wearing a smart watch.

[0180] S904: If the mobile phone recognizes that the user is wearing a smart watch, the mobile phone sends an incoming call reminder to the smart watch.

[0181] S905 , in response to receiving the incoming call reminder, the smart watch vibrates.

[0182] If the mobile phone recognizes that the user is not wearing a smartwatch, for example, the user originally wore a hearing aid to listen to music, and the user took off the hearing aid to do housework, and the user was not wearing a smartwatch, at this time, the mobile phone, TV, and smartwatch in the first trust ring can remind the user by displaying a reminder message, vibrating, flashing the screen, and playing a targeted call reminder.

[0183] S906: If the mobile phone recognizes that the mobile phone is not connected to a hearing aid, the mobile phone identifies whether the user is a hearing-impaired user.

[0184] If the user is not hearing-impaired, the process ends.

[0185] S907: If the user is hearing-impaired, the mobile phone may further identify whether the user is wearing a hearing aid.

[0186] If the user is hearing-impaired and not wearing a hearing aid, the mobile phone, TV, or smartwatch in the first trust ring can alert the user by displaying an incoming call reminder, vibrating, flashing the screen, or playing a targeted call reminder. The user may not be watching TV or wearing a smartwatch, and may be a certain distance away from the TV or smartwatch. To accurately alert the user, the mobile phone can execute S908.

[0187] S908: If the user is a hearing-impaired user and does not wear a hearing aid, the user's mobile phone identifies whether the user is wearing a smart watch.

[0188] S909: If the mobile phone recognizes that the user is wearing a smart watch, the mobile phone sends an incoming call reminder to the smart watch.

[0189] S910: In response to receiving an incoming call reminder, the smart watch vibrates.

[0190] For example, if a hearing-impaired user is not wearing a hearing aid and is doing housework while wearing a hearing aid, the phone can instruct the watch to vibrate to remind the user. If the user is hearing-impaired and does not wear a hearing aid or a smartwatch, the phone, TV, or smartwatch in the first trust ring can remind the user by displaying a reminder message, vibrating, flashing the screen, or playing a targeted call reminder.

[0191] S911: If the user is hearing-impaired and wears a hearing aid, the mobile phone further recognizes that the hearing aid is connected to the electronic device.

[0192] If the hearing aid is not connected to a TV or smartwatch, the phone, TV, or smartwatch in the first trust ring can alert the user by displaying a reminder message, vibrating, flashing the screen, or playing a targeted reminder message. If the hearing aid is connected to a TV or smartwatch, the phone can instruct the TV or smartwatch to display a reminder message, vibrate, flash the screen, or play a targeted call reminder. Take the case of connecting a hearing aid to a TV as an example.

[0193] S912, the hearing aid is connected to the TV, and the mobile phone sends an incoming call reminder to the TV.

[0194] S913 , in response to receiving the reminder message, the television displays an incoming call reminder.

[0195] For example, a hearing-impaired user wears a hearing aid, and the hearing aid is connected to a TV, that is, the hearing-impaired user wears the hearing aid to watch TV. After the mobile phone receives the prompt signal from the microwave oven, the mobile phone instructs the TV to display an incoming call reminder to accurately remind the user.

[0196] In this way, after receiving the first incoming call, the mobile phone can trigger the electronic devices in the first trust ring to remind the hearing-impaired user by playing the incoming call reminder through the hearing aid, displaying the incoming call reminder, vibrating, and playing the incoming call reminder in a targeted manner based on the connection status and wearing status of the hearing aid, helping the hearing-impaired user to perceive the incoming call signal and answer the call in time.

[0197] Furthermore, the first signal may be a call signal from a first user in the mobile phone's environment. The mobile phone can collect voice data in real time. After collecting a call signal with a decibel level greater than a threshold, the mobile phone can use voiceprint recognition technology to determine whether the call signal originated from the first user. The first user may be a friend or family member of the hearing-impaired user.

[0198] After receiving the call signal, the mobile phone identifies whether the mobile phone is connected to the hearing aid and the wearing status of the hearing aid.

[0199] When a mobile phone is connected to a hearing aid and the user is wearing the hearing aid, the mobile phone plays a reminder message through the hearing aid. When a mobile phone is connected to a hearing aid and the hearing aid is not being worn, the mobile phone sends a reminder message through a first preset method (such as display and vibration), and / or the mobile phone instructs a second electronic device to send a reminder message through a second preset method (such as display and directional playback). The reminder message corresponds to a call signal. The reminder message may include the identity information of the first user and the call content. For example, the reminder message may be "Attention, your family is calling you, please respond."

[0200] Furthermore, if the mobile phone is not connected to a hearing aid, it is identified whether the user is a hearing-impaired user.

[0201] If the user is hearing-impaired, the third electronic device connected to the hearing aid and the wearing status of the hearing aid are identified. Based on the connection status and wearing status of the hearing aid, the following three situations can be classified.

[0202] If the hearing aid is not connected to any electronic device, the mobile phone sends a call reminder through a first preset method (such as display and vibration), and / or the mobile phone instructs the second electronic device to send a reminder message through a second preset method (such as display and directional playback). If the hearing aid is connected to a third electronic device and the hearing aid is in the worn state, the mobile phone instructs the third electronic device to play a reminder message. If the hearing aid is connected to a third electronic device and the hearing aid is not in the worn state, the mobile phone sends a reminder message through a first preset method (such as display and vibration), and / or the mobile phone instructs the second electronic device to send a reminder message through a second preset method (such as display and directional playback).

[0203] For example, if a user isn't wearing a hearing aid or smartwatch, a smart speaker can collect real-time surrounding voice data. After collecting a call signal with a decibel level exceeding a first threshold, the smart speaker uses voice recognition to identify a family member calling. Using beamforming technology, the smart speaker can play the first voice data directly to the user's ear, allowing the user to hear the family member calling.

[0204] For example, if a family member falls and the user isn't wearing a hearing aid or a watch, they won't be able to hear the family member's call. The TV can collect surrounding voice data in real time. After collecting a call signal with a decibel level exceeding a first threshold, the TV uses voice recognition to identify the family member's call. The TV then sends a reminder message to the smart light bulb. In response to the reminder message, the smart light bulb can flash. The user can sense the flashing of the smart light bulb and observe their surroundings to find their family member.

[0205] In summary, after receiving the first signal, the electronic device in the first trust ring, such as a mobile phone, can instruct the electronic device in the first trust ring to display a reminder message, vibrate, play a reminder message, or play a reminder message in a targeted manner to remind the user based on the connection status of the hearing aid and the wearing status of the hearing aid. Specifically, if the user wears a hearing aid and connects an electronic device (a mobile phone or a third electronic device) to play audio data, the mobile phone can play a reminder message through the hearing aid, or trigger the third electronic device to play a reminder message through the hearing aid, so that the user can be reminded accurately. When the hearing aid is not connected to any electronic device in the first trust ring, the mobile phone can display a reminder message, vibrate, or play a reminder message in a targeted manner, and / or the mobile phone can instruct the second electronic device to display a reminder message, vibrate, or play a reminder message in a targeted manner.

[0206] For a fourth electronic device that has not joined the first trust ring, that is, a fourth electronic device that has not established a connection with any electronic device in the first trust ring, since it has not established a connection with any electronic device in the first trust ring, it cannot receive reminder messages sent by electronic devices in the first trust ring and cannot remind the user. For another example, the fourth electronic device cannot receive reminder signals sent by other devices in the environment where the first electronic device is located, and cannot remind the user.

[0207] To this end, in this solution, after receiving the first signal, an electronic device within the first trust ring can broadcast a reminder message. After receiving the broadcast, a fourth electronic device can send a reminder message using a third preset method. This third reminder message can include at least one of display, vibration, and targeted playback. This way, even if the fourth electronic device is not part of the first trust ring and has not established a connection with any device, it can still alert the user.

[0208] This solution is described in a specific scenario, assuming the first electronic device is a mobile phone and the fourth electronic device is a smartwatch. The mobile phone and TV are in the same first trust ring, and the smartwatch is in a state of tug-of-war with all other electronic devices in the first trust ring.

[0209] After the mobile phone collects the preset sound data, receives the indication signal, and receives the first incoming call, the mobile phone can execute the following contents according to different situations.

[0210] When the phone is connected to the hearing aid and the user is wearing the hearing aid, the phone plays a reminder message through the hearing aid.

[0211] When a mobile phone is connected to a hearing aid but the user is not wearing the hearing aid, the mobile phone may send a first broadcast. Optionally, the mobile phone may instruct electronic devices within the first trust ring to send the first broadcast. The first broadcast includes a reminder message. After receiving the first broadcast, the smartwatch may vibrate to remind the user. The first broadcast may be a Bluetooth broadcast, which may be a scannable non-directional broadcast (ADV_SCAN_IND). The duration of the first broadcast may be 1 minute.

[0212] The user is a hearing-impaired user, and none of the electronic devices in the first trust ring are connected to hearing aids. The mobile phone and / or the second electronic device in the first trust ring sends a first broadcast. The first broadcast includes reminder information. After receiving the first broadcast, the smartphone can vibrate to remind the user. For example, the hearing-impaired user is not wearing a hearing aid, the user leaves the phone nearby, and the user wears a smartwatch to do housework. After the mobile phone receives a call from a relative or friend, the mobile phone and / or the second electronic device in the first trust ring can send a first broadcast. After receiving the first broadcast, the smartwatch vibrates to remind the user. The user feels the vibration of the smartwatch and can check the information on the phone to confirm the call.

[0213] A hearing-impaired user has a hearing aid connected to a third electronic device, but the user is not wearing the hearing aid. The mobile phone and / or a second electronic device within the first trusted ring sends a first broadcast. The first broadcast includes a reminder. Upon receiving the first broadcast, the smartphone may vibrate to alert the user.

[0214] If the user is hearing-impaired, the hearing aid is connected to the TV and the user is wearing the hearing aid, the mobile phone instructs the TV to play a reminder message through the hearing aid.

[0215] like Figure 10a As shown in the related art, after the mobile phone receives the first incoming call, the mobile phone and the electronic devices in the trust circle can ring and / or vibrate at the same time. If the mobile phone is not connected to the hearing aid and the mobile phone is not connected to the watch, the watch will not respond and cannot remind the user. Figure 10b As shown, in this solution, when a mobile phone receives a first incoming call and identifies the user as hearing-impaired, but the user is not wearing hearing aids, the mobile phone and / or TV can send a first broadcast. The smartwatch receives the first broadcast and identifies the wearing status. If the wearing status is worn, it can vibrate and display a call reminder.
