Abstract
A method for providing a context awareness service is provided. The method includes defining a control command for the context awareness service depending on a user input, triggering a playback mode and the context awareness service in response to a user selection, receiving external audio through a microphone in the playback mode, determining whether the received audio corresponds to the control command, and executing a particular action assigned to the control command when the received audio corresponds to the control command.
Claims18
An apparatus comprising:
- a touchscreen display;
- communication circuitry;
- a memory to store a specified command;
- and
- at least one processor configured to:
- establish, using the communication circuitry, a wireless communication connection between the apparatus and a wireless earphone including a speaker,
- reproduce multimedia data, the reproducing including transmitting audio data corresponding to at least part of the multimedia data to the wireless earphone via the wireless communication connection such that the audio data is output via the speaker included in the wireless earphone,
- obtain a sound input from an outside of the apparatus while the multimedia data is reproduced at the apparatus,
- determine that the sound input received from the outside of the apparatus corresponds to the specified command stored in the memory,
- pause the reproducing of the multimedia data based at least in part on the determining that the sound input corresponds to the specified command,
- transmit an audio indicator corresponding to the specified command to the wireless earphone via the wireless communication connection based at least in part on the pausing of the reproducing of the multimedia data, and
- display a visual indicator corresponding to the sound input via the touchscreen display based at least in part on the determining that the sound input corresponds to the specified command,
- wherein the audio indicator is output via the speaker.
A method comprising:
