All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

The terms first, second and the like in the description and in the claims of the present application are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that the data so used is interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the application are capable of operation in sequences other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, "and/or" in the specification and claims means at least one of connected objects, a character "/" generally means that a preceding and succeeding related objects are in an "or" relationship.

The following describes the audio playing method provided by the embodiments of the present application in detail by using specific embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 1 shows a flowchart of an audio playing method provided in an embodiment of the present application, where the audio playing method may be applied to a first electronic device, the first electronic device is connected to a first earphone, and the first electronic device is connected to a second earphone. As shown in fig. 1, the method may include the steps of:

s110, acquiring a first ear canal characteristic of a user wearing the first earphone and a second ear canal characteristic of a user wearing the second earphone.

The first electronic device may be any electronic device, such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a palm computer, and the like. The first electronic device may be connected with a first earphone or a second earphone, for example, one of a left earphone and a right earphone in a pair of earphones may be determined as the first earphone, and the other may be determined as the second earphone; or the first electronic equipment is connected with two pairs of earphones, one pair of earphones is determined as a first earphone, and the other pair of earphones is determined as a second earphone.

The ear canal characteristic of the user wearing the first earpiece is a first ear canal characteristic that may be captured by the first earpiece. The ear canal characteristic of the user wearing the second earpiece is a second ear canal characteristic that may be captured by the second earpiece.

As an example, the first and second earphones may be worn separately when different users want to listen to the same audio, e.g. one user may wear the first earphone and another user wears the second earphone. The first earpiece may then capture a first ear canal characteristic of a user wearing the first earpiece, and the second earpiece may capture a second ear canal characteristic of a user wearing the second earpiece. The earphones (including the first earphone and the second earphone) can acquire the characteristics of the ear canal of the user through ultrasonic waves, for example, the earphones can transmit ultrasonic waves into the ear canal of the user, receive the ultrasonic waves which are folded back for multiple times in the ear canal, and determine the characteristics of the ear canal based on the folded-back ultrasonic waves. The first electronic device may then obtain, from the first earpiece, a first ear canal characteristic of the user wearing the first earpiece, and obtain, from the second earpiece, a second ear canal characteristic of the user wearing the second earpiece.

And S120, playing the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature set under the condition that the first ear canal feature is matched with the first preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set and the second ear canal feature is matched with the second preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set.

The target ear canal feature set may include a first preset ear canal feature and a second preset ear canal feature, and the target ear canal feature set is stored in association with the target audio, that is, the first preset ear canal feature and the second preset ear canal feature are stored in association with the audio. The first preset ear canal feature may be a pre-stored ear canal feature of one user associated with the target audio, and the second preset ear canal feature may be a pre-stored ear canal feature of another user associated with the target audio; the target audio is the audio associated with the target ear canal feature set, and in the case of audio being a song, the target audio may be a certain song.

As an example, after obtaining the first ear canal feature of the user wearing the first earphone and the second ear canal feature of the user wearing the second earphone, the first electronic device may match the first ear canal feature with the first preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set, and match the second ear canal feature with the first preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set.

Under the condition that the first ear canal feature is matched with the first preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set and the second ear canal feature is matched with the second preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set, the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature set can be obtained and played. Therefore, the two users can respectively listen to the target audio through the first earphone and the second earphone, and the target audio can be shared among the users.

It is understood that the first ear canal feature matches the first predetermined ear canal feature, and may be the same as or closer to the first predetermined ear canal feature; the second ear canal feature matches the second predetermined ear canal feature, and may be the same as or closer to the second predetermined ear canal feature. When the user wearing the first earphone and the user wearing the second earphone are two different users, the acquired first ear canal characteristics and the acquired second ear canal characteristics are the respective ear canal characteristics of the two different users, the target audio associated with the target ear canal characteristic set is broadcasted at the moment, and audio sharing between the two different users can be realized.

In an embodiment of the present application, by obtaining a first ear canal feature of a user wearing a first earphone and a second ear canal feature of a user wearing a second earphone, a target audio associated with a target ear canal feature set is played under the condition that the first ear canal feature matches a first preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set and the second ear canal feature matches a second preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set. Therefore, audio playing can be realized through matching of the ear canal characteristics of the user and the preset ear canal characteristics corresponding to the target ear canal characteristic set, and therefore audio sharing among users is realized. Therefore, compared with the prior art, the audio playing can be realized only through the matching of the ear canal characteristics without establishing a friend relationship or inviting friends to join a music room, so that the audio playing process can be effectively simplified, and the audio sharing process can be effectively simplified.

Specifically, the target audio is played through matching of the ear canal characteristics of the user and the preset ear canal characteristics corresponding to the target ear canal characteristic set, that is, the ear canal characteristics of the user are an authentication manner for playing the target audio. Therefore, even if the users are not in good friend relationship, the target audio can be played through the matching of the ear canal characteristics of the users and the preset ear canal characteristics corresponding to the target ear canal characteristic set, and the sharing of the target audio is realized, so that the audio playing process and the audio sharing process can be effectively simplified.

In addition, because the ear canal characteristics of each user are unique and are not easy to copy and change, the ear canal characteristics of the user are used as an authentication mode for playing the target audio, so that the safety of the target audio can be effectively improved. Moreover, the target audio can be played only by the authentication of the ear canal characteristics of the users, so that the interactivity among the users can be better improved, and the user experience is improved.

In some embodiments, before step S120, the following steps may also be performed:

playing the first audio;

at this time, a specific implementation manner of step S120 may be as follows:

under the condition that the first ear canal feature is matched with a first preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set and the second ear canal feature is matched with a second preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set, pausing playing the first audio and playing the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature set;

after playing the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature set, further comprising:

and when the duration of the first earphone in the unworn state is greater than a first preset value or the duration of the second earphone in the unworn state is greater than a second preset value, pausing the playing of the target audio and playing the first audio.

The first preset value may be a preset maximum allowable time length of the first earphone in the unworn state, and once the time length of the first earphone in the unworn state is greater than the first preset value, the playing of the target audio is suspended. The second preset value may be a preset maximum allowable time length of the second earphone in the unworn state, and once the time length of the second earphone in the unworn state is greater than the second preset value, the playing of the target audio is paused. The first preset value may be the same as or different from the second preset value.

As an example, before the target audio is broadcasted, a first audio may be broadcasted, and the first audio may be any audio other than the target audio, such as a certain song. At this moment, if it is detected that the first ear canal feature is matched with the first preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set, and the second ear canal feature is matched with the second preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set, the broadcasting of the first audio can be suspended, and the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature set is broadcasted. After the first electronic device plays the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature set, the first earphone and the second earphone may further detect whether the first earphone and the second earphone are in an unworn state, and in a case where the first earphone detects that the first earphone is in an unworn state or the second earphone detects that the second earphone is in an unworn state, the first earphone or the second earphone in the unworn state may send information to the first electronic device, so that the first electronic device can determine that the first earphone or the second earphone is in an unworn state.

The first electronic device can count the duration of the first earphone in an unworn state, and the duration is recorded as H₁Or the duration of the second earphone in the non-wearing state is recorded as H₂And can be substituted by H₁With a first predetermined value H₀₁Making a comparison, or₂And a second preset value H₀₂A comparison is made. At H₁Greater than H₀₁Or H₂Greater than H₀₂In this case, it may be considered that the user does not want to listen to the target audio but wants to listen to the first audio, and at this time, the first electronic device may pause playing the target audio and play the first audio. After pausing the target audio, if necessary, repeatingWhen the target audio is played again, the ear canal characteristic authentication process, i.e., the processes of steps S110 to S120, needs to be performed again.

It is understood that in H₁Is less than or equal to H₀₁Or H₂Is less than or equal to H₀₂In this case, it may be considered that the user temporarily takes off the earphone, and at this time, the first electronic device may pause the target audio being played if the first earphone is at the first preset value H₀₁Is re-worn or the second earphone is at the second preset value H₀₂When the first electronic device is worn again, the first electronic device can continue to play the target audio. Before the target audio is played, if other audio is not played, then H₁Greater than H₀₁Or H₂Greater than H₀₂In this case, the first electronic device may pause playing only the target audio and not play other audio.

Therefore, when the time length of the first earphone in the unworn state is greater than the first preset value or the time length of the second earphone in the unworn state is greater than the second preset value, the playing of the target audio is paused and the original first audio is played. Therefore, the user can play or pause the target audio or the first audio only by wearing or taking off the earphone, so that the user experience can be further improved.

In some embodiments, the first electronic device may obtain, by the second electronic device, a second ear canal characteristic of a user wearing the second earphone, and accordingly, the specific implementation manner may be:

the first electronic device is connected with the second electronic device, and the second electronic device is connected with the second earphone.

At this time, a specific implementation manner of acquiring the second ear canal characteristic of the user wearing the second earphone in step S110 may be:

and receiving a second ear canal characteristic sent by the second electronic equipment, wherein the second ear canal characteristic is obtained by the second electronic equipment through the second earphone.

Accordingly, the specific implementation manner of playing the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature set in step S120 may be as follows:

playing the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature set, and sending first information to the second electronic device to instruct the second electronic device to play the target audio.

The second electronic device may be an electronic device external to the first electronic device, and the electronic device may store the target ear canal feature set and the target audio in an associated manner.

As an example, in a case where the second electronic device is connected to the second earphone, the first electronic device may acquire the second ear canal characteristic of the user wearing the second earphone through the second electronic device, that is, the second earphone transmits the acquired second ear canal characteristic of the user wearing the second earphone to the second electronic device, and the second electronic device may transmit the second ear canal characteristic to the first electronic device through a connection with the first electronic device, where the connection between the first electronic device and the second electronic device may be a bluetooth connection, a network connection, or the like. The first electronic device can receive the second ear canal characteristics sent by the second electronic device, match the first ear canal characteristics with the first preset ear canal characteristics in the target ear canal characteristic set, and match the second ear canal characteristics with the second preset ear canal characteristics in the target ear canal characteristic set. In the case where the first ear canal feature matches a first preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set and the second ear canal feature matches a second preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set, the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature set is played and information, namely first information, may be sent to the second electronic device, where the first information may be used to instruct the second electronic device to play the target audio. In this way, after the second electronic device receives the first information, the target audio can be played, so that audio sharing with the first electronic device is realized.

In some embodiments, in a case that the first electronic device and the second electronic device log in to the same account, after playing the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature set, before sending the first information to the second electronic device to instruct the second electronic device to play the target audio, the adjustment of the playing progress between the first electronic device and the second electronic device may also be implemented as follows:

acquiring audio playing information of second electronic equipment;

under the condition that the second electronic equipment does not play the target audio, sending second information to the second electronic equipment to instruct the second electronic equipment to play the target audio;

and under the condition that the second electronic equipment plays the target audio, acquiring the playing progress of the second electronic equipment playing the target audio, and adjusting the playing progress of the first electronic equipment to the playing progress of the second electronic equipment or sending third information to the second electronic equipment so as to adjust the playing progress of the second electronic equipment to the playing progress of the first electronic equipment.

As an example, in a case where the first electronic device and the second electronic device log in to the same account, after the first electronic device plays the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature set, the first electronic device may further obtain audio playing information of the second electronic device, such as whether the second electronic device is playing the target audio. In a case that the audio playing information of the second electronic device is that the second electronic device does not play the target audio, the first electronic device may send information, that is, second information, to the second electronic device, where the second information may be used to instruct the second electronic device to play the target audio. When the audio playing information of the second electronic device is that the second electronic device plays the target audio, the first electronic device can acquire the playing progress of the second electronic device in playing the target audio, and then adjust the playing progress of the first electronic device to the playing progress of the second electronic device; or, the first electronic device may also send information, that is, third information, to the second electronic device to instruct the second electronic device to adjust the playing progress of the target audio to the playing progress of the first electronic device.

Taking the target audio played by the first electronic device as song a, and the second electronic device does not play song a as an example, the first electronic device may send second information to the second electronic device, the second electronic device may play song a after receiving the second information, and the second electronic device may play song a according to the playing progress of the first electronic device, or may play song a from the beginning.

Taking the example that the first electronic device and the second electronic device are both playing the target audio song a, assuming that the playing progress of the first electronic device playing the song a is 1 min 05 sec, and the playing progress of the second electronic device playing the song a is 0 min 30 sec, the first electronic device may adjust the playing progress to the playing progress of the second electronic device, that is, the playing progress is adjusted from 1 min 05 sec of the song a to 0 min 30 sec of the song a. Or, the first electronic device may send the third information to the second electronic device, and the second electronic device may adjust the playing progress from 0 min 30 s of song a to 1 min 05 s of song a after receiving the third information.

As a specific example, fig. 2 shows a schematic diagram of a display manner of third information, in fig. 3, "user a" may represent a second electronic device, "user B" may represent a first electronic device, "song a playback progress detected by user a is 01: and 05, determining whether the music progress is played synchronously as third information, wherein the control "yes" indicates that the playing progress is adjusted to the playing progress of the first electronic equipment, and the control "no" indicates that the playing progress is not adjusted to the playing progress of the first electronic equipment. If the user B selects yes, the second electronic device may adjust the playing progress to 01: 05, carrying out a reaction; otherwise, the playing progress is not adjusted.

It can be understood that, the first electronic device may adjust the play progress of the first electronic device to the play progress of the second electronic device under the condition that the play progress of the first electronic device is slower than the play progress of the second electronic device; and under the condition that the playing progress of the electronic device is faster than that of the second electronic device, sending third information to the second electronic device so as to adjust the playing progress of the second electronic device to the playing progress of the first electronic device.

Therefore, the playing progress of the second electronic equipment is adjusted to be the playing progress of the first electronic equipment by adjusting the playing progress of the first electronic equipment or sending third information to the second electronic equipment, audio sharing among users can be further realized, interaction among the users is increased, and user experience is further provided.

In some embodiments, a specific implementation manner of playing the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature in step S120 may be as follows:

and determining a song list associated with the target ear canal characteristic set, and playing the target audio in the song list.

As an example, in the case that the target ear canal feature set is associated with a song list that is not a specific audio but includes a plurality of audios, the first electronic device may determine the song list associated with the target ear canal feature set, determine the target audio in the song list, and play the target audio when playing the target audio. Wherein the target audio may be the audio in the song list that the user last paused playing. In this way, the target audio can be played under the condition that the song list is associated with the target ear canal feature set, so that the audio sharing of the target audio is realized.

In some embodiments, before step S110, the preset ear canal feature set and the second audio may be stored in association, and accordingly, the specific implementation manner may be as follows:

creating a second audio; the second audio may include a target audio;

acquiring a target auditory canal characteristic set; the target ear canal feature set may include a first preset ear canal feature of a user wearing the first earpiece and a second preset ear canal feature of a user wearing the second earpiece;

the second audio is stored in association with the target ear canal feature set.

As one example, prior to obtaining a first ear canal characteristic of a user wearing a first earphone and a second ear canal characteristic of a user wearing a second earphone, the user may first determine desired audio on the first electronic device and then operate the first electronic device such that the first electronic device may create second audio based on the desired audio. Wherein the second audio comprises a target audio. It is to be understood that, the aforementioned audio which the user determines to want to listen to may be one or a plurality of, and when the audio which the user determines to want to listen to is one, the second audio created based on the audio which the user determines to want to listen to may only include the one audio; when the user determines that there are a plurality of desired audios to be listened to, the second audio created based on the desired audios may include the plurality of audios, and at this time, the second audio may be a song list.

In the case where one user wears a first earphone and another user wears a second earphone, the first earphone may obtain a first preset ear canal characteristic of the user wearing the first earphone; the second earpiece may acquire a second preset ear canal characteristic of a user wearing the second earpiece. Then, the first electronic device may obtain the first preset ear canal feature from the first earphone and obtain the second preset ear canal feature from the second earphone, so as to obtain the target ear canal feature set. It will be appreciated that the user may wear the headset when, before, or after the second audio is created. Correspondingly, the processes of creating the second audio and obtaining the first preset ear canal feature and the second preset ear canal feature may be performed simultaneously or sequentially, and the execution sequence of the two processes is not limited in this embodiment. The first electronic device may then store the target ear canal feature set in association with the second audio. Thus, the pre-associated storage of the second audio comprising the target audio and the target ear canal feature set may provide sufficient data support for the playback of the target audio, and thus may provide data support for the user to share the target audio through the ear canal features.

In some embodiments, in the case that there are a plurality of second audios associated with the target ear canal feature set, the plurality of second audios may be further displayed for the user to select, and accordingly, before the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature set is played in step S120, the following steps may be further performed:

displaying a plurality of second audios associated with a set of target ear canal features;

receiving a first input; the first input is for selecting a target audio from a plurality of second audios.

At this time, the specific implementation manner of playing the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature set in step S120 may be as follows:

in response to the second input, the target audio is played.

As an example, considering that a user may create multiple second audios, in such a case, the target ear canal feature set may then be associated with the multiple second audios. At this time, in order to enable the user to listen to the target audio, the first electronic device may display a plurality of second audio associated with the target ear canal feature set under the condition that the first ear canal feature matches a first preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set, and the second ear canal feature matches a second preset ear canal feature in the target ear canal feature set. In this way, the user can see the plurality of second audios associated with the target ear canal feature set on the interface of the first electronic device, and can operate the first electronic device to select the target audio desired to be listened to, so that the first electronic device can receive the input, i.e., the first input, of the user selecting the target audio from the plurality of second audios. The first electronic device, after receiving the first input, may determine, in response to the first input, the second audio indicated by the first input as the target audio and play the target audio.

Therefore, the user can select the target audio to be listened to from the plurality of second audios associated with the target ear canal feature set, so that the user can be further ensured to listen to the audio wanted by the user, and the user experience can be further improved.

In some embodiments, after the target audio associated with the target ear canal feature set is played in step S120, the audio volume of the played target audio may be further adjusted, and the specific implementation manner may be as follows:

detecting the environmental volume of the current environment;

and adjusting the audio volume of the played target audio according to the environment volume.

As an example, when the first electronic device plays the target audio, it may further detect an ambient volume of the surrounding environment, and adjust an audio volume of the target audio according to the ambient volume. As a specific example, if it is detected that the volume of the environment in the current environment is high, for example, the environment is noisy, the audio volume of the target audio played by the earphone may be increased. On the contrary, if it is detected that the ambient volume of the current environment is low, for example, the environment is quiet, the audio volume of the target audio played by the earphone can be reduced.

It can be understood that, in the case that two users sharing the target audio listen to the target audio together through the first electronic device, the audio volume of the target audio played by the first earphone and the second earphone can be adjusted by adjusting the volume of the first electronic device. Under the condition that one user listens to the target audio through the first electronic device and the other user listens to the target audio through the second electronic device, the first electronic device and the second electronic device can respectively detect the environmental volume of the current environment where the first electronic device and the second electronic device are located, and the audio volume of the target audio played by the first electronic device and the second electronic device can be adjusted according to the environmental volume.

Therefore, the audio volume of the played target audio is adjusted according to different environment volumes, so that the audio volume of the played target audio can better meet the actual requirements of users, and the user experience can be further improved.

Therefore, audio playing can be realized through matching of the ear canal characteristics of the user and the preset ear canal characteristics corresponding to the target ear canal characteristic set, and therefore audio sharing among users is realized.
