Description

Headphone left and right channel matching method, device, ear clip-on headphone and storage medium

[0001] This application claims priority to the Chinese patent application filed with the China Patent Office on March 28, 2024, application number 202410371059.5, and application name "Headphone left and right channel matching method, device, ear clip headphone and storage medium", all of which are incorporated by reference into this application. Technical Field

[0002] The present application relates to the field of earphone technology, and in particular to a method and device for matching left and right channels of an earphone, an earclip-type earphone, and a storage medium. Background Art

[0003] With the development of new technologies, OWS (Open Wearable Stereo) headphones, such as clip-on earphones, are becoming increasingly popular. Compared to TWS (True Wireless Stereo) headphones, clip-on earphones are more ear-friendly, hearing-safe, comfortable to wear, and more suitable for extended wear. Because clip-on earphones don't need to be worn in the ear, they can be worn in both ears, ensuring a consistent fit and a universal fit, unlike traditional earphones.

[0004] Ear clip headphones have a left earphone and a right earphone. The left earphone outputs the left channel, while the right earphone outputs the right channel. When the stereo headphones are worn, the left earphone contacts the user's left ear, while the right earphone contacts the user's right ear, allowing the left ear to hear the left channel and the right ear to hear the right channel. During wear, the relative positions of the left and right earphones cannot be interchanged, as doing so will directly affect the fidelity of the sound source and the resolution of the audio frequencies.

[0005] To achieve perfect sound quality, users must first identify the left and right sides of their ear clips before putting them on. The current solution is to mark the ear clips with symbols such as L / R, but this requires manual verification to ensure they are not worn incorrectly, which is inconvenient for the user.

[0055] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0056] Ear clip headphones have a left earphone and a right earphone. The left earphone outputs the left channel, while the right earphone outputs the right channel. When the stereo headphones are worn, the left earphone contacts the user's left ear, while the right earphone contacts the user's right ear, allowing the left ear to hear the left channel and the right ear to hear the right channel. During wear, the relative positions of the left and right earphones cannot be interchanged, as doing so will directly affect the fidelity of the sound source and the resolution of the audio frequencies.

[0057] To achieve perfect sound quality, users must first identify the left and right sides of their ear clips before putting them on. The current solution is to mark the ear clips with symbols such as L / R, but this requires manual verification to ensure they are not worn incorrectly, which is inconvenient for the user.

[0058] Example 1

[0059] Based on this, please refer to FIG1 , which is a flow chart of a first embodiment of a method for matching left and right channels of headphones of the present application. The method for matching left and right channels of headphones is applied to ear clip-on headphones, wherein a first earphone and a second earphone of the ear clip-on headphones are both provided with a three-axis acceleration sensor. The method includes:

[0060] Step S10: When it is detected that the ear clip earphone is worn, three-axis acceleration information detected by the three-axis acceleration sensor is obtained.

[0061] As those skilled in the art will appreciate, an earphone-style headset comprises two individual earphones, namely a first earphone and a second earphone. As shown in Figures 3 and 4, Figure 3 shows an earphone-style headset according to an embodiment of the present application from one perspective, and Figure 4 shows an earphone-style headset according to an embodiment of the present application from another perspective. A single earphone comprises a speaker compartment 3 and a behind-the-ear compartment 1, as well as a connecting bridge 2 connecting the speaker compartment and the behind-the-ear compartment. The speaker compartment area refers to the area corresponding to the speaker compartment 3. As those skilled in the art will appreciate, for earphones, the speaker compartment 3 is typically provided with an acoustic module, which includes a speaker. Of course, the acoustic module may also include a microphone, but this is not specifically limited in this embodiment. The behind-the-ear compartment 1 is typically provided with a power module for providing electrical energy. Of course, the behind-the-ear compartment 1 may also be provided with a noise reduction module and a communication module, etc., but this is not specifically limited in this embodiment. The speaker is used to play audio from the left or right channel, and the power module is used to provide electrical energy to the single earphone. The communication module is used to enable the single earphone to communicate with other electronic devices connected to the single earphone for information exchange. The accelerometer is used to detect the three-axis acceleration information of the earphone. The microphone is used to collect ambient audio, and the noise reduction module is used to perform adaptive noise reduction on the ambient audio collected by the microphone based on a preset noise reduction algorithm. The preset noise reduction algorithm can be an ANC (Active Noise Control) noise reduction algorithm, an ENC (Environmental Noise Cancellation) noise reduction algorithm, a DSP (digital signal processing) noise reduction algorithm, or a CVC (Clear Voice Capture) noise reduction algorithm. Those skilled in the art have conducted in-depth research on these noise reduction algorithms and will not be elaborated on here.

[0062] Those skilled in the art will know that a three-axis acceleration sensor works based on the basic principle of acceleration, and acceleration is a space vector.

[0063] Exemplarily, the first earphone and the second earphone are further provided with a capacitive touch sensor, and the method further includes:

[0064] Step A10, obtaining capacitance sensing information detected by the capacitive touch sensor;

[0065] Step A20: Detecting whether the ear clip earphone is worn according to the capacitive sensing information.

[0066] The present application obtains capacitance sensing information detected by a capacitive touch sensor, and accurately detects whether the ear clip earphones are worn based on the capacitance sensing information.

[0067] After step S10, step S20 is executed to determine the corresponding wearing positions of the first earphone and the second earphone according to the three-axis acceleration information.

[0068] Exemplarily, determining the corresponding wearing positions of the first earphone and the second earphone according to the three-axis acceleration information includes:

[0069] Step B10, determining the vertical component direction of the three-axis acceleration information;

[0070] Step B20: determining corresponding wearing positions of the first earphone and the second earphone according to the component directions.

[0071] In this embodiment, it is understandable that the posture of the first earphone when worn on the left ear and when worn on the right ear will be reversed. That is, if the component of the three-axis acceleration information corresponding to the first earphone worn on the left ear points to the positive direction of the Z axis, then the component of the three-axis acceleration information corresponding to the first earphone worn on the right ear points to the negative direction of the Z axis. If the component of the three-axis acceleration information corresponding to the first earphone worn on the right ear points to the negative direction of the Z axis, then the component of the three-axis acceleration information corresponding to the first earphone worn on the right ear points to the positive direction of the Z axis, as shown in Figure 5, which is a display diagram of the three-axis acceleration information when the earphones are worn on the left and right ears in the embodiment of the present application.

[0072] The mapping relationship between the three-axis acceleration information and the wearing position information can be stored in advance in the first headset, or in the cloud server registered with the first headset. In one example, the mapping relationship stored in the first headset or the cloud server registered with the first headset is: the component of the three-axis acceleration information points to the positive direction of the Z axis, and the mapped wearing position information is the left ear wearing position. Also, the component of the three-axis acceleration information points to the negative direction of the Z axis, and the mapped wearing position information is the right ear wearing position. Based on the stored mapping relationship, it is convenient to subsequently determine the corresponding wearing position of the first headset according to the three-axis acceleration information.

[0073] Similarly, the second earphone's position will be reversed when worn on the left ear versus the right ear. That is, if the components of the three-axis acceleration information corresponding to the second earphone worn on the left ear point in the positive direction of the Z axis, then the components of the three-axis acceleration information corresponding to the second earphone worn on the right ear point in the negative direction of the Z axis. If the components of the three-axis acceleration information corresponding to the second earphone worn on the right ear point in the negative direction of the Z axis, then the components of the three-axis acceleration information corresponding to the second earphone worn on the right ear point in the positive direction of the Z axis, as shown in Figure 5.

[0074] The mapping relationship between the three-axis acceleration information and the wearing position information can be stored in advance in the second headset, or in the cloud server registered with the second headset. In one example, the mapping relationship stored in the second headset or the cloud server registered with the second headset is: the component of the three-axis acceleration information points to the negative direction of the Z axis, and the mapped wearing position information is the right ear wearing position. And, the component of the three-axis acceleration information points to the positive direction of the Z axis, and the mapped wearing position information is the left ear wearing position. Based on the stored mapping relationship, it is convenient to subsequently determine the corresponding wearing position of the second headset according to the three-axis acceleration information.

[0075] After step S20, step S30 is executed to adjust the left channel and the right channel of the speaker of the ear clip-on earphone based on the corresponding wearing positions of the first earphone and the second earphone, so that the left channel corresponds to the earphone worn in the left ear position, and the right channel corresponds to the earphone worn in the right ear position.

[0076] As shown in Figure 2, Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of the wearing posture of the ear-clip earphones of the embodiment of the present application in a wearing state at one viewing angle (looking down from the top of the head). The two earphone units of the first earphone and the second earphone are the same, and there is no need to manually distinguish between the left and right ears, and the user can wear them at will. The earphones will automatically distinguish and configure the left and right channels according to the left and right sides of the user. Since the user's head is generally in an upright upward position when just wearing it, rather than a lying or inverted position, the left and right channel matching method of the earphones of the embodiment of the present application can easily implement an autonomous detection scheme for the left and right channels of open earphones, which is convenient for users to wear and use. Users no longer need to distinguish between left and right, and can wear them blindly. In addition, the ear-clip earphones of the embodiment of the present application have a simple structure, and the hardware cost of implementing the left and right channel matching method of the earphones is low.

[0077] In one embodiment, an acceleration sensor can be provided in the compartment behind the ear, and the coordinates can be calibrated according to the normal wearing posture when the headset leaves the factory. For example, the same coordinate calibration is performed on each single earphone, and the Z axis is calibrated to point upwards in the normal wearing posture. It is also defined that when the headset is worn normally, the left channel is detected when the Z axis points upwards, as shown in the side view diagram when the headset is worn on the left ear in Figure 5. When worn, the right channel is detected when the Z axis points downwards, as shown in the side view diagram when the headset is worn on the right ear in Figure 5. When the user wears the headset in the correct posture, the Z axis of one earphone must point upwards and the Z axis of the other earphone must point downwards, completing the left and right channel configuration. After the headset-type headset leaves the factory, the left and right channel identification needs to be completed in conjunction with the wearing detection function of the acceleration sensor data of the headset.

[0078] The embodiment of the present application discloses a method and device for matching left and right channels of headphones, an ear clip-on headphone, and a storage medium. The ear clip-on headphone left and right channel matching method is applied to ear clip-on headphones, wherein a first earphone and a second earphone of the ear clip-on headphone are provided with a three-axis acceleration sensor. The technical solution of the ear clip-on headphone left and right channel matching method of the embodiment of the present application is to obtain three-axis acceleration information detected by the three-axis acceleration sensor when detecting that the ear clip headphone is worn, determine the corresponding wearing positions of the first earphone and the second earphone according to the three-axis acceleration information, and then determine the corresponding wearing positions of the first earphone and the second earphone based on the corresponding wearing positions of the first earphone and the second earphone. The left and right channels of the ear clip headphones' speakers are adjusted so that the left channel corresponds to the headphones when worn in the left ear, and the right channel corresponds to the headphones when worn in the right ear, thereby achieving automatic matching of the left and right channels with the left and right ears. This overcomes the inconvenience of marking the headphones with L / R labels in the related art, which requires manual confirmation to ensure that they are not worn upside down. This improves the ease of use of the ear clip headphones and effectively eliminates the need for users to distinguish between the left and right channels before wearing the headphones. That is, no matter how the ear clip headphones are worn, the sound signals of the left and right channels obtained are always correct, thereby improving the user's hearing effect.

[0079] In a possible implementation, determining corresponding wearing positions of the first earphone and the second earphone according to the component directions includes:

[0080] Step C10: determining wearing posture information corresponding to the first earphone and the second earphone according to the component orientation;

[0081] Step C20: Determine corresponding wearing positions of the first earphone and the second earphone according to the wearing posture information.

[0082] Exemplarily, determining wearing posture information corresponding to the first earphone and the second earphone according to the component orientation includes:

[0083] Step D10: If the component corresponding to the three-axis acceleration information of the first earphone points to the positive direction of the Z axis, determining that the wearing posture information corresponding to the first earphone is the first posture;

[0084] Step D20: If the component corresponding to the three-axis acceleration information of the first headset points to the negative direction of the Z axis, determining that the wearing posture information corresponding to the first headset is the second posture;

[0085] Step D30: If the component corresponding to the three-axis acceleration information of the second earphone points to the positive direction of the Z axis, determining that the wearing posture information corresponding to the second earphone is the first posture;

[0086] Step D40: If the component corresponding to the three-axis acceleration information of the second earphone points to the negative direction of the Z axis, it is determined that the wearing posture information corresponding to the second earphone is the second posture.

[0087] The embodiment of the present application determines the corresponding wearing posture information of the first earphone and the second earphone according to the component direction, and determines the corresponding wearing positions of the first earphone and the second earphone according to the wearing posture information, thereby effectively improving the accuracy of identifying the wearing position of the earphones, and automatically matching the left and right channels with the left and right ears by having the earphone with the left channel corresponding to the wearing position of the left ear and the earphone with the right channel corresponding to the wearing position of the right ear, thereby overcoming the inconvenience caused by marking labels such as L / R on the earphones in the related art, which requires manual confirmation to ensure that they are not worn incorrectly, and improving the ease of use of ear clip earphones. The embodiment of the present application provides an open-ear headphone that does not require the user to distinguish between the left and right ears when worn, and the earphone can autonomously identify the left and right channels when worn, avoiding the trouble of the user having to distinguish between the left and right earphones when wearing.

[0088] In one practicable manner, determining corresponding wearing positions of the first earphone and the second earphone according to the wearing posture information includes:

[0089] Step E10: If the wearing posture information corresponding to the first earphone is the first posture, determining that the wearing position corresponding to the first earphone is the left ear wearing position;

[0090] Step E20: If the wearing posture information corresponding to the first earphone is the second posture, determining that the wearing position corresponding to the first earphone is the right ear wearing position;

[0091] Step E30: If the wearing posture information corresponding to the second earphone is the first posture, determining that the wearing position corresponding to the second earphone is the left ear wearing position;

[0092] Step E40: If the wearing posture information corresponding to the second earphone is the second posture, determine that the wearing position corresponding to the second earphone is the right ear wearing position.

[0093] In this embodiment, the first posture and the second posture are different. It is understood that the second posture is a 180-degree flip, or a near 180-degree flip, of the first posture. In one example, referring to FIG5 , the left image shows the first posture corresponding to when the target earphone is worn on the left ear, and the right image shows the second posture corresponding to when the target earphone is worn on the right ear. The target earphone is either the first earphone or the second earphone.

[0094] In the embodiment of the present application, when the wearing posture information corresponding to the first earphone is the first posture, the wearing position corresponding to the first earphone is determined to be the left ear wearing position; if the wearing posture information corresponding to the first earphone is the second posture, the wearing position corresponding to the first earphone is determined to be the right ear wearing position; if the wearing posture information corresponding to the second earphone is the first posture, the wearing position corresponding to the second earphone is determined to be the left ear wearing position; if the wearing posture information corresponding to the second earphone is the second posture, the wearing position corresponding to the second earphone is determined to be the right ear wearing position, thereby effectively improving the accuracy of identifying the wearing position of the earphone, and automatically matching the left and right channels with the left and right ears through the earphone whose left channel corresponds to the left ear wearing position and the earphone whose right channel corresponds to the right ear wearing position, so that there is no need to distinguish between the left and right channels before wearing the earphones, that is, no matter how the ear clip earphones are worn, the sound signals of the left and right channels obtained are always correct.

[0095] Example 2

[0096] Based on the first embodiment of the present application, in another embodiment of the present application, the same or similar contents as those in the above-mentioned embodiment 1 can be referred to the above introduction and will not be repeated hereafter. On this basis, according to the component orientation, the wearing posture information corresponding to the first earphone and the second earphone is determined, including:

[0097] Step F10: If the component corresponding to the three-axis acceleration information of the first headset points to the positive direction of the Z axis, and the component value in the positive direction of the Z axis matches the gravity acceleration value, then determining that the wearing posture information corresponding to the first headset is the first posture;

[0098] Step F20: If the component corresponding to the three-axis acceleration information of the first headset points to the negative direction of the Z axis, and the component value in the negative direction of the Z axis matches the value of gravity acceleration, determining that the wearing posture information corresponding to the first headset is the second posture;

[0099] Step F30: If the component corresponding to the three-axis acceleration information of the second headset points to the positive direction of the Z axis, and the component value in the positive direction of the Z axis matches the gravity acceleration value, then determining that the wearing posture information corresponding to the second headset is the first posture;

[0100] Step F40: If the component corresponding to the three-axis acceleration information of the second earphone points to the negative direction of the Z axis, and the component value in the negative direction of the Z axis matches the gravity acceleration value, then the wearing posture information corresponding to the second earphone is determined to be the second posture.

[0101] In this embodiment, those skilled in the art will know that, since when a person wears headphones, the person's head is generally in an upright position (the head is rarely in a lying or upside-down position), the component value in the Z-axis direction generally matches the gravity acceleration value. Based on this principle, in the embodiment of the present application, when the component corresponding to the three-axis acceleration information of the first earphone points to the positive direction of the Z axis, and the component value in the positive direction of the Z axis matches the gravity acceleration value, the wearing posture information corresponding to the first earphone is determined to be the first posture; if the component corresponding to the three-axis acceleration information of the first earphone points to the negative direction of the Z axis, and the component value in the negative direction of the Z axis matches the gravity acceleration value, the wearing posture information corresponding to the first earphone is determined to be the second posture; if the component corresponding to the three-axis acceleration information of the second earphone points to the positive direction of the Z axis, and the component value in the positive direction of the Z axis matches the gravity acceleration value, the second earphone is determined to be the second posture. The wearing posture information corresponding to the earphone is the first posture; if the component corresponding to the three-axis acceleration information of the second earphone points to the negative direction of the Z axis, and the component value in the negative direction of the Z axis matches the gravity acceleration value, then the wearing posture information corresponding to the second earphone is determined to be the second posture, thereby further improving the accuracy of identifying the wearing position of the earphone, and through the earphone whose left channel corresponds to the left ear wearing position, and the earphone whose right channel corresponds to the right ear wearing position, automatic matching of the left and right channels with the left and right ears is achieved, further determining that there is no need to distinguish between the left and right channels before wearing the earphones, and no matter how the ear clip earphones are worn, the sound signals of the left and right channels obtained are always correct.
