[0038] The vibration sound system according to the present invention includes a vehicle-mounted sound array, which is distributed on the seat back, and the vehicle-mounted sound array faces the back of the seat user, and when the vehicle-mounted sound array plays, sound vibration will be radiated to the back of the seat user. The vehicle-mounted sound array has an audio module, an audio amplification module, a control module, a connection module and a sensor module, and is interconnected with multiple control devices through the connection module. A combination of multiple external control device usage methods can be used to select the most suitable connection method for users according to their needs and preferences, and can better solve the problem of multi-device control conflicts, and enable a stable connection between the sound and the external control device. When the sound is playing, the sensor module is used to obtain the distance between the seat user and the backrest, and the audio amplification module is used to adjust the size of the sound amplifier sound field of the sound according to the distance between the seat user and the backrest, so that the sound waves of the audio information are radiated into the car, enhancing the interactive experience between the user and the sound.

[0039] In one embodiment of the present application, the control module sends the audio data sent by the control device to the audio module for conversion, including: the control module receives the audio data sent by the control device, the audio data includes an audio file, the control module sends the audio file to the audio module for conversion into an audio signal that can be played by the audio amplification module, and the audio amplification module plays the sound to the seat user when receiving the audio signal.

[0040] In one embodiment of the present application, the connection module includes a wired unit, a WiFi unit, and a Bluetooth unit;

[0043] In this embodiment, interconnection with multiple control devices is achieved through a wired unit, a WiFi unit and a Bluetooth unit respectively, and a combination of various external control device usage methods is adopted. Users can choose the most suitable connection method according to their needs and preferences, and can better solve the problem of multi-device control conflicts and achieve a stable connection between the audio and the external control device.

[0044] Further, the control module comprises, by selecting a communication channel: determining a connection state of each audio source channel among a plurality of audio source channels, the audio source channels comprising a wired channel, a WiFi channel and a Bluetooth channel;

[0045] When the audio source channel is determined to be in a connected state, audio data in the audio source channel with a higher priority is obtained according to the priority of the audio source channel, and the audio data is sent to the audio module of the vehicle audio system.

[0046] In this embodiment, the control levels of the wired unit, WiFi unit and Bluetooth unit are divided, wherein the wired unit has the highest level, and in the WiFi unit and Bluetooth unit, due to the presence of signal interference, there is a signal delay when the WiFi unit and the Bluetooth unit send control signals.

The user can control the appropriate volume on the control device, at which the user feels the best comfort, and the control system records the size of the volume, and uses the sensor to obtain the distance between the seat user and the backrest in real time, and controls the sound vibration radiation of the vehicle audio array to be constant to the seat user, so that the seat user's experience is within a constant single range, giving the user a 4D feeling, thereby enhancing the interactive experience between the user and the audio system.
