Abstract
A car audio output control device and a method therefor are disclosed. When an acoustic source is generated by the peripheral device, the control device controls a car audio output such that when a device acoustic source and an identification code are received while a source acoustic source self-generated by a car audio is outputted, the control device selects one output mode matched with the received identification code from among the plurality of output modes and controls the source acoustic source and the device acoustic source according to the selected output mode so as to change the car audio output.
Claims6
A car audio output control device, comprising:
- a storage unit that stores an identification code for each output mode with respect to a plurality of output modes;
- an interface unit that receives a device acoustic source and an identification code defining an attribute of the device acoustic source from a peripheral device;
- and
- a control unit that controls an output of a car audio such that when a device acoustic source and an identification code are received through the interface unit while a source acoustic source self-generated from the car audio is outputted, the control unit selects one output mode matched with the received identification code from among the plurality of output modes, and controls the source acoustic source and the device acoustic source according to the selected output mode so as to change the output of the car audio,
- wherein an acoustic source path and acoustic source state of the output of the car audio are controlled so as to be different with respect to each of the plurality of output modes.
A car audio output control method, comprising:
- outputting a source acoustic source self-generated by a car audio;
- receiving a device acoustic source and an identification code defining an attribute of the device acoustic source from a peripheral device;
- and
- selecting one output mode matched with the received identification code from among a plurality of preset output modes and controlling the source acoustic source and the device acoustic source according to the selected output mode so as to change the output of the car audio,
- wherein an acoustic source path and acoustic source state of the output of the car audio are controlled so as to be different with respect to each of the plurality of output mode.
