TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of wearable devices, and in particular to a smart glasses. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the vigorous rise of Argumented reality (AR) technology, AR glasses, as a cutting-edge wearable device, are gradually integrated into our daily life and show great application potential in many fields. Among them, the voice translation function as an important application of AR glasses provides great convenience for international communication, communication of language barrier and interaction in multilingual environment. However, in the actual use process, the voice translation function of AR glasses also exposes some technical challenges and problems.
[0003] Firstly, the accuracy of voice recognition is a big problem faced by the voice translation function of AR glasses. In the process of conversation with people, the mic on the AR glasses needs to accurately pick up the voice of the other party and convert it into recognizable text information. However, in noisy environment or when the distance between the two parties is far, the pickup effect of the mic will be seriously affected. Background noise, such as crowd noise, traffic noise, and the breathing sound and coughing sound of the two parties in conversation, will interfere with the normal work of the mic, making it difficult to accurately capture the target sound, thereby reducing the accuracy of voice recognition. This decrease in accuracy will directly lead to errors or ambiguity in the translation result, affecting the user's communication experience.
[0004] Secondly, when conversing with two or more people at the same time, AR glasses also face the problem that the translation result is difficult to correspond to the speaker. In the scene of multi-person conversation, the voice signals of each person may be intertwined and superimposed, forming a complex audio environment. At this time, AR glasses have difficulty in accurately distinguishing the source of each voice signal, making it difficult to identify the speaker. This difficulty in speaker identification will further lead to a mismatch between the translation result and the actual speaker, causing confusion in the translation result. This confusion will not only make the two parties feel confused, but also may cause misunderstanding or communication barriers, seriously affecting the effectiveness and efficiency of communication.
[0005] In summary, the voice translation function of the current AR glasses still has technical problems to be solved in terms of voice recognition accuracy and speaker identification. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0035] The following disclosure provides numerous different embodiments or examples for implementing various structures of this application. To simplify the disclosure, specific examples of components and arrangements are described below. These are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of this application. Furthermore, reference numerals and / or letters may be repeated in different examples. Such repetition is for simplification and clarity and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or arrangements discussed. In addition, various specific examples of processes and materials are provided in this application; however, those skilled in the art will recognize the applicability of other processes and / or the use of other materials.
[0036] For ease of description, spatial relative terms may be used in the text to describe the relative position or movement of one element or feature relative to another element or feature, as shown in the figure. These relative terms include, for example, "inside," "outside," "middle," "outer," "below," "below," "above," "front," "back," etc. Such spatial relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation, other than those depicted in the figure. For example, if the device in the figure undergoes a positional flip, orientation change, or change of motion, these directional indications will change accordingly. For instance, an element described as "below other elements or features" or "below other elements or features" will subsequently be oriented "above other elements or features" or "above other elements or features." Therefore, the example term "below" can include both upper and lower orientations. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or in other directions), and the spatial relative descriptors used in the text will be interpreted accordingly.
[0037] In some exemplary embodiments, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, a smart glasses system can enhance the user's interactive experience, especially in terms of speech recognition accuracy in complex environments and long-distance conversations. The smart glasses include a glasses body 1 and a sound pickup component 2. The glasses body 1 is the main structure of the smart glasses, used to support and fix other components, while also providing wearing comfort for the user. The sound pickup component 2 is used to collect audio information, providing basic data for subsequent speech recognition and processing.
[0038] The eyeglasses body 1 includes, for example, two temples 13 and a frame. The temples 13 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the frame and are rotatably connected to the frame to facilitate the unfolding or folding of the eyeglasses body 1. Lenses are inlaid on the frame. The lenses can be a single piece embedded in the frame to simplify the manufacturing process and improve installation efficiency; or, the lenses can be two separate lenses, each embedded in the frame, corresponding to the wearer's left and right eyes, and placed in corresponding positions on the frame to meet the vision needs of different users.
[0039] The glasses body 1 is equipped with a display unit 11 and a control unit 12, which are connected by internal wiring to ensure smooth information transmission. The display unit 11 can be constructed within the lens, employing transparent display technology, allowing the user to directly view the displayed content, such as translated content or dialogue content, through the lens. The control unit 12 is used to process various data and instructions.
[0040] For example, the display unit 11 includes a main display area 111 and a secondary display area 112. The main display area 111 and the secondary display area 112 can be arranged vertically or horizontally, depending on the actual situation.
[0041] The glasses body 1 is also equipped with a first positioning module 15 connected to the control unit 12. The first positioning module 15 uses ultra-wideband (UWB) positioning technology to accurately identify the first position information of the glasses body, providing basic data for subsequent sound source positioning.
[0042] The sound pickup component 2 is installed on the glasses body 1. The sound pickup component 2 is the part of the smart glasses used to collect sound. The sound pickup component 2 includes two pickup elements 21. The two pickup elements 21 are respectively installed on the glasses body 1, and the two pickup elements 21 are detachably connected to the glasses body 1, so that the user can install or remove them as needed.
[0043] The two microphones 21 establish wireless communication connections with the control unit 12, ensuring that the captured audio information can be transmitted to the control unit 12 for processing in real time. Based on the received audio and location information, the control unit 12 performs sound source localization and speech recognition processing to accurately identify the speaker's voice content and translate or otherwise process it. The control unit 12 displays the dialogue content from the two microphones 21 in the main display area 111 and the secondary display area 112, respectively, so that the user can access the dialogue content promptly.
[0044] For example, the main display area 111 and the secondary display area 112 can be flexibly configured according to the actual application scenario. Specifically, they can be arranged vertically to meet vertical display requirements, or horizontally to facilitate horizontal information browsing. This design fully considers the convenience of users in different usage habits and environments.
[0045] The audio information collected by the two microphones 21 is displayed in the main display area 111 and the secondary display area 112, respectively. As key components for sound acquisition, these two microphones 21 can capture sound signals in the user's surrounding environment, convert them into processable digital audio data via the control unit 12, and translate the corresponding information.
[0046] It is worth noting that, in order to highlight the main dialogue content or improve information readability, the content displayed in the main display area 111 is designed to be larger than the content displayed in the secondary display area 112 in this embodiment. The displayed content may be, for example, real-time translated information, and the "display content size" here refers not only to the difference in physical display area but also to differences in font size, resolution, and visual proportion. For example, the main display area 111 may have a larger area, or the text information displayed within it may use a larger font to allow users to quickly identify key information.
[0047] Furthermore, the display logic in this embodiment is highly intelligent, capable of dynamically adjusting the displayed content based on the user's actual communication situation. Specifically, when the user wears the glasses body 1 containing the display unit 11 and uses the two microphones 21 separately, such as placing them on the left and right sides respectively.
[0048] The control unit 12 processes and translates the audio information collected by the microphone 21. Based on the user's conversational direction, the control unit 12 prioritizes the audio information collected by the microphone 21 that focuses on the user's current conversation partner, placing it in the main display area 111 for highlighting. The audio information from the other microphone 21 is displayed in the secondary display area 112. For example, when the user is facing left, the audio information collected by the left-side microphone 21 will be preferentially displayed in the larger main display area 111, and vice versa. This dynamic adjustment not only improves the readability and immediacy of the information but also enhances the immersive and interactive experience of the user.
[0049] In this embodiment, as Figures 1-6 As shown, each microphone 21 is equipped with a second positioning module 22. Through the application of ultra-wideband positioning technology, the smart glasses can accurately identify the location of the speaker in complex environments, such as noisy environments or long-distance conversations. Using the positioning information, the smart glasses can more accurately determine which voice is coming from the speaker, thereby effectively filtering out background noise and improving the accuracy of speech recognition.
[0050] The control unit 12 can acquire the second position information of the second positioning module 22 and the first position information of the first positioning module 15. Based on the first and second position information, it determines the relative positional relationship between the glasses body 1 and each microphone 21, so that the smart glasses can perceive the spatial distribution of the microphones 21 in real time, thereby providing users with more accurate sound positioning and pickup services.
[0051] Based on relative positional relationships, the control unit 12 controls the audio information collected by the microphone 21 located in a first preset direction of the glasses body 1 to be displayed in the main display area 111, and controls the audio information collected by the microphone 21 located in a second preset direction of the glasses body 1 to be displayed in the sub-display area 112. The first preset direction is, for example, the front, i.e., the direction directly facing the glasses body 1, and the second preset direction is, for example, the side, i.e., the direction sideways to the glasses body 1.
[0052] For example, the relative positional relationship between the glasses body 1 and the pickup element 21 can be determined based on the deflection angle. For instance, the glasses body 1 has a first center line L1, the pickup element 21 located on the left has a second center line L2, and the pickup element 21 located on the right has a third center line L3.
[0053] If the angle formed between the first center line L1 and the second center line L2 is less than or equal to a preset angle, and the angle formed between the first center line L1 and the third center L3 is greater than a preset angle, it indicates that the glasses body 1 is close to the pickup 21 located on the left side, and the glasses body 1 is sideways to the pickup 21 located on the right side.
[0054] Alternatively, if the angle formed between the first center line L1 and the second center line L2 is smaller than the angle formed between the first center line L1 and the third center L3, it can be indicated that the glasses body 1 is close to the pickup 21 located on the left side, and the glasses body 1 is sideways to the pickup 21 located on the right side.
[0055] The specific method depends on the actual situation, but other methods can also be used to determine the relative positional relationship between the glasses body 1 and each microphone 21. The control unit 12 displays the audio information collected by the microphone 21 located on the left side in the main display area 111, and displays the audio information collected by the microphone 21 located on the right side in the secondary display area 112.
[0056] During the operation of the smart glasses, when a user engages in conversation, the microphone 21 collects the other party's audio information and transmits it to the control unit 12. Simultaneously, the second positioning module 22 reports the second position information of the microphone 21 in real time. This information is combined with the first position information data provided by the first positioning module 15 in the control unit 12 to locate the sound source. This ensures that the control unit 12 can accurately determine the user's current orientation and conversation direction, and promptly switch the displayed content between the main display area 111 and the secondary display area 112.
[0057] This embodiment, through a dual-area display design, combined with ultra-wideband positioning technology and intelligent audio processing, achieves accurate capture, efficient translation, and differentiated display of audio information, providing users with an intuitive and flexible audiovisual interactive platform.
[0058] Based on the received audio and location information, the control unit 12 uses advanced speech recognition and positioning algorithms to accurately identify the speaker's voice content and translate or otherwise process it. The identified or translated content can be displayed to the user in text or image form through the display unit 11, allowing the user to obtain relevant information more intuitively.
[0059] It should be noted that when a user needs to use the microphone 21 to converse with someone, the microphone 21 can be activated in various ways. It can be activated by automatically sensing that it has been removed, or it can be set by a preset switch. Once the microphone 21 is removed, it can automatically begin searching for and establishing a communication connection with the paired device (such as the control unit 12), thereby ensuring smooth data transmission.
[0060] The smart glasses in this embodiment integrate a sound pickup component 2, a second positioning module 22, and a first positioning module 15, achieving accurate voice recognition and positioning in complex environments and during long-distance conversations, thus improving the user's interactive experience. Furthermore, this not only enhances the practicality and applicability of the smart glasses but also provides users with a more convenient and intelligent user experience.
[0061] In some exemplary embodiments, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the sound pickup assembly 2 also includes two connection structures 23, and each pickup element 21 is detachably connected to the glasses body 1 through a connection structure 23.
[0062] Each connection structure 23 includes a first connection part 231 and a second connection part 232. The first connection part 231 is disposed on the pickup member 21, and the second connection part 232 is disposed on the eyeglass body 1. The eyeglass body 1 is detachably connected to the pickup member 21 through the first connection part 231 and the second connection part 232.
[0063] First Example
[0064] The first connecting part 231 includes a first magnetic element 2311, and the second connecting part 232 includes a second magnetic element 2321. The polarities of the first magnetic element 2311 and the second magnetic element 2321 are opposite. Utilizing the principle of magnetic pole attraction, the first magnetic element 2311 and the second magnetic element 2321 are magnetically connected. When the first magnetic element 2311 on the pickup element 21 is brought close to the second magnetic element 2321 on the glasses body 1, the two automatically attract each other, completing the connection. To separate, simply pull gently to disconnect.
[0065] Second example
[0066] The first connecting part 231 includes a female hook and loop fastener (not shown in the figure), and the second connecting part 232 includes a female hook and loop fastener (not shown in the figure). The female hook and loop fastener are connected. The connection between the female hook and loop fastener is achieved through the interlocking of the loop and hook surfaces. Align the female hook and loop fastener on the pickup element 21 with the female hook and loop fastener on the eyeglass body 1, press them together to lock them in place, and the connection is complete. To separate, gently peel off the female hook and loop fastener to disconnect.
[0067] Third Example
[0068] The first connecting part 231 includes a first adhesive part, and the second connecting part 232 includes a second adhesive part. The first adhesive part and the second adhesive part are bonded together by an adhesive substance. This adhesive substance is reusable, and when the adhesive strength is insufficient, the adhesive part can be replaced with a new one. Align the first adhesive part on the pickup element 21 with the second adhesive part on the eyeglass body 1, and press them together tightly to complete the connection. To separate, gently peel off the first and second adhesive parts to disconnect the connection. If the adhesive strength is insufficient, a new adhesive part can be replaced or the original adhesive part can be cleaned to restore adhesion.
[0069] In this embodiment, as Figures 1-5 As shown, the connection structure 23 includes a first electrical connector 233 and a second electrical connector 234. The first electrical connector 233 is disposed on the pickup element 21, and the second electrical connector 234 is disposed on the eyeglass body 1. The eyeglass body 1 is electrically connected to the pickup element 21 through the second electrical connector 234 and the first electrical connector 233.
[0070] The second electrical connector 234 is, for example, a pogo pin, which provides good elasticity and conductivity, enabling it to adapt to certain positional deviations and vibrations while ensuring stable electrical contact, thus ensuring connection reliability. The first electrical connector 233 is correspondingly provided to the second electrical connector 234. The first electrical connector 233 adopts a metal connector design, such as a metal sheet or metal contact, to ensure good conductivity and mechanical strength.
[0071] When the microphone 21 is assembled or docked with the glasses body 1, the second electrical connector 234 (spring pin) abuts against the first electrical connector 233 (metal connector). Due to the elastic properties of the spring pin, it can fit tightly against the first electrical connector 233, maintaining stable electrical contact even with slight positional changes or vibrations. This abutment method not only achieves a physical connection but also ensures the effective transmission of electrical signals, thus completing the function of charging or signal connection.
[0072] It should be noted that, to meet different electrical requirements, the first electrical connector 233 may include, for example, a first sub-electrical connector 2331 and a second sub-electrical connector 2332, which are spaced apart. The first sub-electrical connector 2331 may be a power supply terminal (Voltage Bus, VBUS), and the second sub-electrical connector 2332 may be a ground terminal (GND), ensuring safe circuit operation. The second electrical connector 234 is configured in the same way as the first electrical connector 233; for example, the second electrical connector 234 may include a first sub-spring pin 2341 and a second sub-spring pin 2342, to facilitate a one-to-one connection.
[0073] This embodiment achieves a stable and reliable electrical connection between the glasses body 1 and the microphone 21 by designing a connection structure 23 that includes a first electrical connector 233 and a second electrical connector 234. This connection method is both simple and effective, suitable for electronic devices that require frequent disassembly or assembly, and improves the ease of use and reliability of the product.
[0074] In this embodiment, as Figures 1-5 As shown, the connection structure 23 also includes a first communication unit 235 and a second communication unit 236. The first communication unit 235 is disposed on the microphone 21, and the second communication unit 236 is disposed on the glasses body 1. The glasses body 1 is communicatively connected to the microphone 21 through the first communication unit 235 and the second communication unit 236. The first communication unit 235 uses a Bluetooth module as the communication method. Bluetooth technology is well-suited for this type of wireless communication connection due to its low power consumption, wide compatibility, and ease of use.
[0075] The second communication unit 236 is disposed on the glasses body 1, corresponding to the first communication unit 235, and is used to establish a wireless communication link. Similarly, the second communication unit 236 also uses a Bluetooth module to ensure compatibility and stable communication with the first communication unit 235.
[0076] When the microphone 21 and the glasses body 1 are within effective communication range, the first communication unit 235 will actively or passively establish a wireless communication connection with the second communication unit 236. Through this wireless communication connection, the microphone 21 can transmit the collected audio signals or other related data to the glasses body 1 in real time, realizing wireless data transmission and sharing. The glasses body 1 can also send control commands or configuration information to the first communication unit 235 through the second communication unit 236 to realize remote control and configuration of the microphone 21.
[0077] This embodiment utilizes a Bluetooth module to achieve wireless communication between the glasses body 1 and the microphone 21 by designing a connection structure 23 including a first communication unit 235 and a second communication unit 236. This design not only simplifies the connection lines between devices and improves ease of use, but also enhances the flexibility and scalability of the device, providing possibilities for future functional upgrades and expansions.
[0078] In this embodiment, as Figures 1-5 As shown, the pickup unit 21 includes a first circuit board 211, a housing 212, a pickup body 213, and a first power supply unit 214 to ensure that it has a compact structure, complete functions, and is easy to connect to the glasses body 1 or other devices.
[0079] The housing 212 is the external protective structure of the pickup 21, providing a robust and sealed accommodating space 2121 for housing the internal electronic components.
[0080] The housing 212 is provided with a pickup hole 2122, which penetrates the housing 212 and communicates with the accommodating space 2121. The pickup hole 2122 allows external sound to enter the accommodating space 2121 smoothly so that it can be captured by the pickup body 213.
[0081] The first circuit board 211 is disposed within the accommodating space 2121. It is the core support structure of the pickup unit 21 and is used to install and connect various electronic components. The wiring design on the first circuit board 211 ensures the electrical connection between the components and realizes signal transmission and processing.
[0082] The microphone 213 converts sound signals into electrical signals. The microphone 213 is disposed on the first circuit board 211 and is electrically connected to other electronic components through the first circuit board 211 to achieve sound capture and preliminary signal processing.
[0083] The first power supply unit 214 is disposed within the accommodating space 2121 to provide the necessary power to the pickup element 21. The first power supply unit 214 is electrically connected to the first circuit board 211 to ensure that the first circuit board 211 and its electronic components can function normally.
[0084] The connection structure 23 is disposed on the corresponding housing 212 to facilitate connection with the glasses body 1. It may include a physical interface, a wireless communication module or other forms of connection device to realize data transmission and communication between the pickup element 21 and the glasses body 1. For details, please refer to the foregoing embodiment, which will not be repeated here.
[0085] In this embodiment, the microphone 21, through the housing 212, the first circuit board 211, the microphone body 213, the first power supply unit 214, and the connection structure 23, achieves sound capture, signal conversion and transmission, as well as convenient connection with the glasses body 1 or other devices. This design not only ensures the performance and reliability of the microphone 21, but also improves its ease of use and flexibility.
[0086] In this embodiment, as Figures 1-5 As shown, the glasses body 1 also includes a second power supply unit 16, which is electrically connected to the control unit 12 to provide it with the necessary power. The second power supply unit 16 is, for example, a battery, which has advantages such as high energy density, long lifespan, and portability, and provides power to the smart glasses.
[0087] The battery works closely with the control unit 12 via electrical connection to ensure that all functions of the smart glasses operate normally. The control unit 12 manages and distributes electrical energy to optimize overall performance and battery life.
[0088] The control unit 12, for example, is a system-on-a-chip (SoC), integrating complete system functions and embedded software, enabling the smart glasses to perform various tasks efficiently and intelligently. The control unit 12 not only improves the system's integration and reliability but also reduces power consumption and cost.
[0089] In this embodiment, in order to achieve real-time monitoring of the status of the sound pickup component 2, the control unit 12 is also configured to determine the voltage value of the first electrical connector 233. For example, by setting a voltage detection sensor at the first electrical connector 233, the voltage detection sensor is communicatively connected to the control unit 12 and can provide real-time feedback of voltage information.
[0090] When the sound pickup component 2 is in a disassembled state, the connection between the first electrical connector 233 and the second electrical connector 234 is broken, causing a change in voltage value, i.e., the voltage value differs from the preset voltage value. Specifically, when the real-time voltage value at the power supply terminal (VBUS) is lower than the preset voltage value (e.g., 5V), the control unit 12 can determine that the sound pickup component 2 has been disassembled. This mechanism not only improves the intelligence level of smart glasses but also provides users with a more convenient user experience.
[0091] It should be noted that the method for determining whether the sound pickup component 2 has been disassembled is not limited to monitoring the voltage value as described above; other components of the connection structure 23 can also be monitored. For example, when the pickup component 21 is connected to the glasses body 1 via magnetic attraction, the connection is both secure and convenient for the user to quickly assemble and disassemble. Magnetic connection not only simplifies the assembly process but also improves the user experience. In this case, to monitor the installation status of the pickup component 21 in real time, a Hall element 14 can be installed on the glasses body 1. The Hall element 14 is a magnetic sensor based on the Hall effect, capable of sensing changes in the magnetic field and converting them into an electrical signal output. In this example, the Hall element 14 is used to sense the position of the first connection part 231 (i.e., the magnetic part on the pickup component 21).
[0092] When the pickup element 21 approaches and attaches to the glasses body 1, its magnetic component triggers the Hall element 14. After sensing the magnetic field, the Hall element 14 changes its output level (usually from high level to low level, or from low level to high level), and this change information is transmitted to the control unit 12 in real time.
[0093] After receiving the change information from the Hall element 14, the control unit 12 will determine whether the pickup element 21 has been correctly installed according to the preset logic. For example, when the Hall element 14 outputs a low level, the control unit 12 determines that the pickup element 21 has been installed; when it outputs a high level, it determines that the pickup element 21 has been removed or not installed correctly.
[0094] It is understandable that the above judgment method is not limited to use alone, but can also be used simultaneously to further confirm the installation status of the sound pickup component 21 and improve the accuracy of the monitoring results. By monitoring the installation status of the sound pickup component 2 in real time, not only is the intelligence level of the system improved, but users are also provided with more intuitive and convenient user feedback, as well as a more efficient and convenient intelligent experience.
[0095] In this embodiment, as Figures 1-5 As shown, the glasses body 1 is provided with a voltage regulating module 17, which is connected to the second power supply unit 16 via a circuit and is used to precisely regulate the charging voltage of the first power supply unit 214 during the charging process.
[0096] The control unit 12 is used to control the power of the second power supply unit 16 so as to supply power to the glasses body 1 and control and manage the entire charging process of the first power supply unit 214.
[0097] The voltage regulation module 17 primarily adjusts the input voltage to adapt to different charging requirements. In this embodiment, the voltage regulation module 17 employs a boost circuit design. The boost circuit can raise a lower input voltage to the required higher voltage level, thereby ensuring the efficiency and stability of the charging process.
[0098] The microphone 21 is provided with a first electrical connector 233, while the glasses body 1 is provided with a corresponding second electrical connector 234. When it is necessary to charge the first power supply unit 214 of the glasses body 1, the user only needs to connect the first electrical connector 233 on the microphone 21 to the second electrical connector 234 on the glasses body 1.
[0099] Once the first electrical connector 233 and the second electrical connector 234 are successfully connected, the electrical energy from the second power supply unit 16 in the glasses body 1 is transferred to the first power supply unit 214 of the microphone 21. At this time, the voltage regulation module 17 starts working according to the instructions of the control unit 12 to regulate the input voltage. The regulated electrical energy is then delivered to the first power supply unit 214 to charge it.
[0100] The control unit 12 not only monitors the power status of the second power supply unit 16, but also sends instructions to the voltage regulation module 17 to adjust its output voltage according to the power status and charging demand. In addition, the control unit 12 can also detect abnormal conditions during the charging process, such as overvoltage and overcurrent, and take timely measures to protect the first power supply unit 214 from damage.
[0101] The smart glasses provided in this application achieve accurate voice recognition and positioning in complex environments and during long-distance conversations, improving the user's interactive experience and bringing users a more convenient and intelligent user experience.
[0102] By integrating a sound pickup component and a second positioning module, smart glasses can accurately identify the location of the speaker in complex environments, effectively filter out background noise, and improve the accuracy of speech recognition. Simultaneously, the first positioning module provides the location information of the glasses themselves, which, combined with the location information of the sound pickup component, enables more precise sound localization and pickup services.
[0103] The sound pickup component is connected to the glasses body via a detachable connection structure, making it easy for users to install or remove it as needed, thus improving the practicality and applicability of smart glasses.
[0104] The connection structure also includes a first electrical connector and a second electrical connector, achieving a stable electrical connection between the glasses body and the microphone. Simultaneously, the first and second communication units achieve wireless communication connectivity via a Bluetooth module, simplifying the connection lines between devices and improving ease of use.
[0105] The display unit employs a dual-zone display design, capable of showcasing audio information captured by two separate microphones and dynamically adjusting the displayed content based on the user's conversation direction. This design enhances the readability and immediacy of information, while also strengthening the immersive and interactive experience.
[0106] The control unit can monitor the installation status of the sound pickup component in real time, and determine whether the pickup component has been removed by monitoring the voltage value and / or the output change of the Hall element, and provide users with more intuitive and convenient user feedback.
