Abstract: A method of automatically adjusting sound output is disclosed. The method includes the following the steps of: receiving a sound message via a microphone; analyzing the sound message to determine whether the sound message is a voice message; controlling a sound player to stop playing sound or to lower volume of the sound if the sound message is a voice message.

Abstract: Disclosed is an electronic device comprising an equalizer and an equalizer adjustment system. The equalizer adjustment system for adjusting the settings of the equalizer comprises a testing module, a parameter calculation module and a parameter setting module. The testing module is used to provide a hearing test procedure for assessing a user's physiological condition of hearing so that after the user completes the hearing test procedure, the parameter calculation module and the parameter setting module can adjust the settings of the equalizer according to the user's physiological condition of hearing.

Abstract: A sound collection equipment includes a speaker, a microphone and a processing unit. The speaker is used for generating a test sound. The microphone is used for receiving the test sound. The processing unit is electrically connected to the microphone and the processing unit. The processing unit is used for determining if the energy of the test sound exceeds a predetermined energy value and judging that the sound collection equipment is in a usage state when the test sound does not exceed the predetermined energy value.

Abstract: An electronic device includes an audio player and a processing unit. The processing unit includes a detection module, a timer module, and a control module. The detection module is used to detect an output volume produced currently when the audio player produces sound and to determine whether the output volume conforms to a volume control standard. The timer module is signally connected with the detection module and used to calculate the cumulative time during which the output volume produced by the audio player conforms to the volume control standard when the output volume conforms to the volume control standard and to determine whether the cumulative time equals the control time. The control module is signally connected with the timer module and used to control the audio player to decrease the volume of an output sound or to stop outputting sound when the cumulative time equals the control time.

Abstract: A method for reducing noise is used to divide a received voice into plural voice segments and set a predetermined energy value. The energy of voice segment which is higher than the predetermined energy value is determined as normal voice and outputs directly, and the energy of voice segment which is lower than the predetermined energy value is determined as noise and will be processed.

Abstract: A method for enhancing speech output in real time is used in a hearing aid device. The input speech is divided into multiple audio segments first. Then each audio segment is analyzed for its attribute: high frequency, low frequency, or soundless. Low frequency segments are outputted without undergoing frequency processing. High frequency segments are outputted after undergoing frequency processing. All or some of the soundless segments are deleted without being outputted. The deletion of soundless segments can reduce the delay caused by the frequency processing of the high frequency segments.

Abstract: A method of processing a voice segment includes checking whether a voice segment is a vowel segment. If the voice segment is not a vowel segment, then the process checks whether the voice segment is a high frequency consonant or a low frequency consonant. If the voice segment is a high frequency consonant, then the voice segment will be processed to lower its frequency.

Abstract: A method of processing a voice output signal is applied in an earphone. The method processes the voice signal received from the earphone via a sound processing module inside the earphone such that a user can hear the voice signal more clearly. The earphone can be used as a hearing-aid when the user is not using a phone, and the earphone also can be used to help the user hear voice signals for phone communication.

Abstract: A method of processing a sound segment is used in a hearing aid. If the sound segment is a high-frequency type, the high-frequency portion of the sound segment will be processed with a frequency lowering process. If the sound segment is a mixed-frequency type (between high-frequency and low-frequency), the energy of at least some portion of the high-frequency portion of the sound segment will be decreased and then processed with a frequency lowering process.

Abstract: A method for enhancing the accuracy of sounds heard by a hearing-impaired listener is disclosed. The method for enhancing the accuracy of sounds heard by a hearing-impaired listener includes receiving an input sound, increasing or decreasing the energy of the high frequency section and then lowering the frequency of the high frequency section, and then combining the low high frequency section with the high frequency section of which the energy was increased/decreased and the frequency was lowered.
