  • Publication number: 20230328867
    Abstract: The disclosure describes a method for a real-time lighting interaction between a remote controlling device and a speaker device. The method comprises receiving a user request via the remote controlling device and determining whether the user request is for selecting a first lighting pattern from a plurality of lighting patterns included in a first mode or a second lighting pattern from a plurality of lighting patterns included in a second mode. The method further generates and communicates first parameter data associated with the selected lighting pattern or second parameter data associated with the selected lighting pattern, based on the determined user request. The method adjusts a light show on the speaker device to output the first output lighting pattern associated with the first parameter data or the second output lighting pattern associated the second parameter data, in response to receiving the first parameter data or the second parameter data.

  • Publication number: 20170026735
    Abstract: An earphone and a media player system are provided. The earphone may include: a first sensor unit and a second sensor unit respectively mounted on a left portion and a right portion of the earphone, adapted to sensing gestures and generating signals according to the sensed gestures, where the left portion and the right portion are disposed on two sides of a user's head when the user wears the earphone; a processing device, adapted to translating the signals into control instructions to control a media player; and an interface, adapted to transmitting the control instructions to the media player. Unintended operations may be reduced.
