  • Publication number: 20230171337
    Abstract: In this application, by using a method for collaborative recording by using a mobile terminal and the true wireless stereo earbud, recording with more complete data amount can be collected, and cooperative noise reduction is performed on a recording signal collected by the mobile terminal and a recording signal collected by the true wireless stereo earbud, so that accuracy and integrity of a human voice signal obtained through separation are higher. Further, in this application, when the true wireless stereo earbud performs recoding in a mode of single-earbud recording, a data amount of the true wireless stereo earbud is relatively small. Therefore, when the mobile terminal receives, through Bluetooth, data sent by the true wireless stereo earbud, excessive occupation of Bluetooth bandwidth of the mobile terminal is avoided, and power consumption of a mobile phone is reduced.

  • Patent number: 7563334
    Abstract: A method for forming a two-way shape memory surface includes thermomechanically training a shape memory alloy under substantially constant indentation strain. Thermomechanical training includes removeably securing an indenter to a surface of the shape memory alloy in its martensite phase, so that an indent is formed in the surface. The shape memory alloy is then heated to its austenite phase while the indenter is secured thereto. The shape memory alloy is then quenched to its martensite phase while the indenter is secured thereto. After thermomechanical training, the shape memory alloy surface exhibits a first indent depth when in its martensite phase, and a second, different indent depth when in its austenite phase. Also disclosed herein is a method for forming one-way and two-way reversible surface protrusions on shape memory alloys.
