==CONTROL SYSTEM, EARPHONE, AND CONTROL METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18332542 titled 'CONTROL SYSTEM, EARPHONE, AND CONTROL METHOD

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a control system for earphones that includes a housing with a space inside and an air-permeable path from the user's ear canal to the ambient environment. The housing also contains an opening and closing valve that can block a part of the path. The earphones are worn on the user's left and right ears, and there is a wireless terminal carried by the user.

* The wireless terminal sends a signal to the earphones when it detects that the user's moving speed is within a predetermined range.
* The earphones use the signal from the wireless terminal to control the opening and closing valve in the housing.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Fitness tracking: The control system can be used to monitor the user's movement speed during exercise and provide real-time feedback through the earphones.
* Environmental awareness: The system can adjust the air-permeable path based on the user's speed to enhance their awareness of the surrounding environment, such as reducing noise during high-speed activities.
* Safety enhancement: By controlling the opening and closing valve, the system can help prevent excessive noise exposure or protect the user's ears in certain situations.

Problems solved by this technology:

* Inconvenience of adjusting earphones manually: The system automatically adjusts the air-permeable path based on the user's speed, eliminating the need for manual adjustments.
* Lack of real-time feedback during exercise: The system provides real-time feedback on the user's movement speed through the earphones, allowing them to adjust their pace accordingly.
* Potential hearing damage: By controlling the air-permeable path, the system can help protect the user's ears from excessive noise exposure during high-speed activities.

Benefits of this technology:

* Enhanced user experience: The system provides a seamless and convenient way to adjust the earphones based on the user's speed, improving comfort and usability.
* Improved safety: By controlling the air-permeable path, the system helps protect the user's ears from potential hearing damage or excessive noise exposure.
* Personalized feedback: The real-time feedback on movement speed allows users to optimize their exercise routines and make adjustments as needed.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A control system includes earphones including a housing having a space therein and an air-permeable path from one end of an ear canal of a user to one end of the ambient environment, and an opening and closing valve accommodated in the housing and capable of blocking a part of the path, the earphones being worn on left and right ears of the user, respectively, and a wireless terminal carried by the user. The wireless terminal transmits a signal indicating that the moving speed is a speed within the predetermined range to the earphones when determining that a moving speed of the user is within a predetermined range. The earphones control the opening and closing valve based on the signal acquired from the wireless terminal.
