Abstract
An audio modification includes a signal transmitter, at least one signal receiver, a processor and an audio generator. The signal transmitter being disposed on a first device is configured to transmit a signal. The at least one signal receiver being disposed on a second device is configured to receive the signal. The processor is configured to determine a first distance between the first device and the second device according to a measuring indicator of the signal and to calculate a second distance that forms a head dimension of a user. The processor is further configured to apply the head dimension in a head related transfer function in order to modify audio information. The audio generator is configured to output a sound corresponding to the audio information.
Claims14
An audio modification system, comprising:
- a signal transmitter configured to transmit a radio signal;
- first and second signal receivers, disposed on a pair of earphones respectively, the first and second signal receivers configured to receive the radio signal;
- a processor, electrically coupled to the signal transmitter and the first and second signal receivers, the processor configured to
- determine a first distance between the signal transmitter and the first signal receiver according to a measuring indicator of the radio signal received by the first signal receiver;
- determine a second distance between the signal transmitter and the second signal receiver according to the measuring indicator of the radio signal received by the second signal receiver;
- and
- calculate a third distance between two ears of a user that forms a head dimension of the user according to the first distance and the second distance, and to apply the head dimension in a head related transfer function in order to modify audio information;
- and
- at least one audio generator disposed on the pair of earphones, electrically coupled to the processor, the at least one audio generator configured to output a sound corresponding to the audio information.
An audio modification method, comprising:
- transmitting, by a signal transmitter, a radio signal;
- receiving, by two signal receivers disposed on a pair of earphones respectively, the radio signal;
- determining, by a processor, a first distance between the signal transmitter and the two signal receivers according to a measuring indicator of the radio signal received by the two signal receivers respectively;
- calculating, by the processor, a second distance between two ears of a user that forms a head dimension of the user according to the first distance;
- applying, by the processor, the head dimension in a head related transfer function in order to modify audio information;
- and
- outputting, by at least one audio generator disposed on the pair of earphones, a sound corresponding to the audio information.
