  • Patent number: 10175936
    Abstract: An electronic device includes an image capture module and a processing unit. The image capture module is used for capturing a user's face image. The processing unit includes an image analysis module and an inquiry module. The image analysis module is signally connected to the image capture module for analyzing the face image and obtaining age data according to a face recognition result. The inquiry module is signally connected to the image analysis module for obtaining a user's hearing data according to the age data, wherein the hearing data is the minimum volume data audible to the user for different frequencies of sound.

  • Patent number: 9979368
    Abstract: A method for automatically lowering the playing volume is disclosed. The method includes the following steps of: obtaining a first value according to a first playing volume and a first accumulated playing time of a sound player; determining whether the first value reaches a first threshold value; if yes, then lowering the first playing volume of the sound player to a second playing volume; obtaining a second value according to the second playing volume and a second accumulated playing time of the sound player; determining whether the second value reaches a second threshold value; if yes, then lowering the second playing volume of the sound player again, wherein the second threshold value is less than the first threshold value.
