  • Patent number: 11367446
    Abstract: The application provides an information dissemination system including a first electronic device and a router. The first electronic device receives a first sound signal and recognizes the first sound signal according to a speech recognition algorithm to generate a first address information and a first coded information content. The router is connected to a local area network to receive the first encoded information content and semantically parse the first encoded information content to produce a parsed result. The router sends the parsed result over local area network. The router determines whether the first address indicated by the first address information is in the local area network according to the first address information, so as to send the parsed result to at least a second electronic device corresponding to the first address.

  • Publication number: 20200336819
    Abstract: A wearable device and a power saving method are proposed. The wearable device includes a sensor and a first processing unit. The sensor has a buffer. The first processing unit is coupled to the sensor. The first processing unit in a first hibernate mode is woken up after receiving a first signal, wherein the first processing unit includes an interrupting module. The interrupting module makes the first processing unit enter the first hibernate mode after commands, in response to the first signal, the sensor to start sensing so as to generate sense data, wherein the sensor wakes up the first processing unit from the first hibernate mode based on an amount of the sense data exceeding a threshold of the buffer, and the first processing unit enters the first hibernate mode after processing the sense data.

  • Publication number: 20200145756
    Abstract: A headset including a housing, a speaker, an electrical signal sensor and a processor is provided. The electrical signal sensor is disposed in an internal cavity of the housing. The electrical signal sensor is configured to generate a first electrical signal according to a friction caused when an insertion portion of the housing is removed from an ear canal of an ear and generate a second electrical signal according to the friction caused when the insertion portion is inserted into the ear canal of the ear. The processor is configured to instruct an electronic device to stop playing an audio signal when receiving the first electrical signal and instruct the electronic device to play the audio signal when receiving the second electrical signal, so that the speaker outputs the audio signal.
