Ring Headset Position Detection and Mode Switching
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing TWS headset products have a single working mode and cannot meet users' higher performance requirements, relying on exclusive headset boxes for charging and operation, which limits convenience and increases the risk of loss.
Innovation Solution
A ring headset with integrated pressure, touch, deformation, and temperature detectors to determine the wearing position, allowing it to switch between different working modes based on whether it is worn on the finger or ear, and communicate with a mobile terminal to adjust its operation accordingly.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If TWS headsets use exclusive headset boxes for charging and operation, then charging and operation functions are provided, but device complexity increases and ease of operation decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the charging and operation functions from the exclusive headset box and integrates them directly into the ring headset. The headset now contains its own charging circuitry and control buttons, eliminating the need for the external box and reducing overall device complexity while improving ease of operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The ring headset is designed to perform multiple functions independently: audio playback, charging, and operation control. This multi-functionality allows the headset to replace the headset box entirely, as it can charge itself and respond to user interactions without external assistance.
2Ease of operation
If TWS headsets rely on exclusive headset boxes, then charging is enabled, but loss risk increases and convenience decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the headset and headset box into a single integrated unit. The ring headset contains all necessary components including battery, charging circuit, and control elements, eliminating the separate box that could be lost. This consolidation improves convenience and reduces loss risk.
3Adaptability or versatility
If ring headset has multiple detectors for position detection, then operational intelligence improves, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the detection function into multiple specialized detectors: pressure detector for wearing detection, touch detector for operation control, deformation detector for shape monitoring, and temperature detector for comfort optimization. Each detector handles a specific task, making the overall system more adaptable while managing complexity through functional separation.

Function Achieved in This Case
Enables TWS headsets to operate in multiple modes without a headset box, enhancing user convenience, reducing loss risk, and improving operational intelligence by automatically adapting to the wearing position, thus meeting diverse user performance needs.
Implementation Method 1
the ring headset includes a pressure detector, and the determining the wearing position where the user wears the ring headset includes: receiving an indication signal transmitted by the pressure detector, where the indication signal includes a first signal transmitted by the pressure detector when it detects that a pressure value is less than or equal to a preset pressure threshold and a second signal transmitted by the pressure detector when it detects that the pressure value is greater than the preset pressure threshold
Implementation Method 2
the ring headset includes a touch detector, and the determining the wearing position where the user wears the ring headset includes: receiving a third signal or a fourth signal transmitted by the touch detector, where the touch detector is configured to transmit the third signal when detecting that a contact area between the ring headset and a human body is less than or equal to a preset area threshold, or transmit the fourth signal when detecting that the contact area is greater than the preset area threshold
Implementation Method 3
the ring headset includes a deformation detector, and the determining the wearing position where the user wears the ring headset includes: receiving a fifth signal or a sixth signal transmitted by the deformation detector, where the deformation detector is configured to transmit the fifth signal when detecting that a deformation amount of the ring headset is less than or equal to a preset deformation amount threshold when the user wears the ring headset, or transmit the sixth signal when detecting that the deformation amount is greater than the preset deformation amount threshold
Implementation Method 4
the ring headset includes a temperature detector, and the determining the wearing position where the user wears the ring headset includes: receiving a seventh signal or an eighth signal transmitted by the temperature detector, where the temperature detector is configured to transmit the seventh signal when detecting that a temperature value is less than or equal to a preset temperature threshold, or transmit the eighth signal when detecting that the temperature value is greater than the temperature threshold
