Speaker equalization for mobile devices

A machine readable non-transitory storage medium containing executable program instructions which cause a data processing device to perform a method comprising:

• dynamically detecting, via one or more sensors of a mobile device, a placement of the mobile device that is relative to one or more physical objects adjacent to the mobile device, wherein the mobile device includes a speaker;
• and
• performing speaker equalization of the mobile device in accordance with the placement of the mobile device,
• wherein the placement of the mobile device includes one or more of:
• the mobile device being placed with the speaker face down on a surface, wherein the speaker is at least partially obstructed,
• the mobile device being placed with the speaker face up on a surface, wherein the speaker is unobstructed,
• the mobile device being held by a user, wherein the speaker is unobstructed,
• the mobile device being held in a concealed position, wherein the speaker is at least partially obstructed, or
• any combination thereof.

A data processing device comprising:

• a processor;
• a speaker;
• and
• a storage device coupled to the processor and the speaker, the processor configurable for storing instructions, which, when executed by the processor cause the processor to:
• dynamically detect, via one or more sensors of a mobile device, a placement of the mobile device that is relative to one or more physical objects adjacent to the mobile device;
• and
• perform speaker equalization of the mobile device in accordance with the placement of the mobile device,
• wherein the placement of the mobile device includes one or more of:
• the mobile device being placed with the speaker face down on a surface, wherein the speaker is at least partially obstructed,
• the mobile device being placed with the speaker face up on a surface, wherein the speaker is unobstructed,
• the mobile device being held by a user, wherein the speaker is unobstructed,
• the mobile device being held in a concealed position, wherein the speaker is at least partially obstructed, or
• any combination thereof.

An apparatus comprising:

• means for dynamically detecting, via one or more sensors of a mobile device, a placement of the mobile device that is relative to one or more physical objects adjacent to the mobile device, wherein the mobile device includes a speaker;
• and
• means for performing speaker equalization of the mobile device in accordance with the placement of the mobile device,
• wherein the placement of the mobile device includes one or more of:
• the mobile device being placed with the speaker face down on a surface, wherein the speaker is at least partially obstructed,
• the mobile device being placed with the speaker face up on a surface, wherein the speaker is unobstructed,
• the mobile device being held by a user, wherein the speaker is unobstructed,
• the mobile device being held in a concealed position, wherein the speaker is at least partially obstructed, or
• any combination thereof.
