Abstract
Disclosed is a display apparatus including at least one speaker per ear; at least one sensor; and at least one processor coupled to the at least one speaker and the at least one sensor. The at least one processor is configured to receive, from the at least one sensor, sensor data indicative of a usage context of the display apparatus; process at least the received sensor data to determine the usage context; and adjust a value of at least one audio parameter for the at least one speaker, based on the determined usage context.
Claims13
A display apparatus comprising:
- at least one speaker per ear;
- at least one sensor;
- and
- at least one processor coupled to the at least one speaker and the at least one sensor, wherein the at least one processor is configured to:
- receive, from the at least one sensor, sensor data indicative of a usage context of the display apparatus;
- process at least the received sensor data to determine the usage context;
- and
- adjust a value of at least one audio parameter for the at least one speaker, based on the determined usage context, wherein the at least one speaker is integrally attached with the display apparatus such that the at least one speaker is capable of attaining at least one pose with respect to the ear, and wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
- detect a current pose of the at least one speaker with respect to the ear;
- and
- tune the at least one speaker according to the detected current pose by:
- selecting, from a plurality of predefined tuning settings for the at least one pose, a predefined tuning setting that corresponds to the detected current pose;
- and
- adjusting a current tuning setting of the at least one speaker to the selected predefined tuning setting that corresponds to the detected current pose by:
- selecting, from a plurality of predefined tuning settings for the at least one pose, a predefined tuning setting that corresponds to the detected current pose;
- and
- adjusting a current tuning setting of the at least one speaker to the selected predefined tuning setting that corresponds to the detected current pose.
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, from at least one sensor, sensor data indicative of a usage context of a display apparatus;
- processing at least the received sensor data for determining the usage context;
- and
- adjusting a value of at least one audio parameter for at least one speaker per ear of the display apparatus, based on the determined usage context, wherein the at least one speaker is integrally attached with the display apparatus such that the at least one speaker is capable of attaining at least one pose with respect to the ear, and wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
- detect a current pose of the at least one speaker with respect to the ear;
- and
- tune the at least one speaker according to the detected current pose by:
- selecting, from a plurality of predefined tuning settings for the at least one pose, a predefined tuning setting that corresponds to the detected current pose;
- and
- adjusting a current tuning setting of the at least one speaker to the selected predefined tuning setting that corresponds to the current pose.
