The advantage and spirit of the invention may be understood by the following detailed descriptions together with the appended drawings.
A preferred embodiment of the invention is a wireless Bluetooth apparatus with intercom and broadcasting functions and an operating method thereof. In practical applications, the wireless Bluetooth apparatus can be a wireless Bluetooth headset, a wireless Bluetooth bracelet, a wireless Bluetooth watch, a wireless Bluetooth glasses, or any other apparatus having wireless Bluetooth voice message transmission function.
Please refer to
At first, as shown in
Then, as shown in
In practical applications, the first partial voice message P1 can include a name voice message corresponding to the second user and the second partial voice message P2 can include an information voice message to inform the second user, but not limited to this. The first electronic apparatus H1 can be a mobile communication apparatus, a tablet PC, a notebook, a personal digital assistant (PDA), or any other electronic apparatus having wireless Bluetooth receiving function.
For example, if the first voice message VM1 that the first user speaks to the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 is “Ms. Wang, remember the meeting in our company's meeting room at 3:00 PM, OVER”, the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 will receive the first voice message VM1 and divide “Ms. Wang, remember the meeting in our company's meeting room at 3:00 PM, OVER” of the first voice message VM1 into “Ms. Wang” as the first partial voice message P1 and “remember the meeting in our company's meeting room at 3:00 PM” as the second partial voice message P2. Then, the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 will transmit “Ms. Wang” of the first partial voice message P1 and “remember the meeting in our company's meeting room at 3:00 PM” of the second partial voice message P2 to the first electronic apparatus H1.
It should be noticed that “OVER” in the first voice message VM1 is a word used to identify the end of the voice message; therefore, “OVER” is not included in the second partial voice message P2.
Then, as shown in
If the determining result of the step S12 is NO, the method will perform the step S13. In the step S13, the first electronic apparatus H1 will determine whether the first partial voice message P1 corresponds to the second user in a communication object list of the communication application program APP through voice recognition calculus technology.
If the determining result of the step S12 is YES or the determining result of the step S13 is YES, the method will perform the step S14. In the step S14, the first electronic apparatus H1 will transmit the second partial voice message P2 to the second electronic apparatus H2 corresponding to the second user through the voice mail function of the communication application program APP. If the determining result of the step S13 is NO, the method will perform the step S15. In the step S15, the first electronic apparatus H1 will not send out the second partial voice message P2.
In the above-mentioned example, when the first electronic apparatus H1 receives “Ms. Wang” of the first partial voice message P1 and “remember the meeting in our company's meeting room at 3:00 PM” of the second partial voice message P2, the first electronic apparatus H1 will determine whether the communication application program APP sets “Ms. Wang” as the default user. If the communication application program APP does not set “Ms. Wang” as the default user, the first electronic apparatus H1 will determine whether “Ms. Wang” corresponds to any user in the communication object list of the communication application program APP through voice recognition calculus technology. If the communication application program APP sets “Ms. Wang” as the default user or “Ms. Wang” corresponds to a second user in the communication object list of the communication application program APP, the first electronic apparatus H1 will transmit “remember the meeting in our company's meeting room at 3:00 PM” to the second electronic apparatus H2 corresponding to the second user through the voice mail function of the communication application program APP. If “Ms. Wang” does not correspond to any user in the communication object list of the communication application program APP, the first electronic apparatus H1 will not send out “remember the meeting in our company's meeting room at 3:00 PM”.
Then, as shown in
In the above-mentioned example, after the second electronic apparatus H2 receives the message “remember the meeting in our company's meeting room at 3:00 PM” through the communication application program APP, the second electronic apparatus H2 transmits the message “remember the meeting in our company's meeting room at 3:00 PM” to another wireless Bluetooth headset U2 corresponding to the second electronic apparatus H2 through wireless Bluetooth technology, so that the message “remember the meeting in our company's meeting room at 3:00 PM” that the first user wants to inform “Ms. Wang” can be smoothly transmitted to the another wireless Bluetooth headset U2 that “Ms. Wang” wears.
If the second user wants to respond to the first user after the second user hears the second partial voice message P2, as shown in
Then, as shown in
In the above-mentioned example, after “Ms. Wang” hears the message “remember the meeting in our company's meeting room at 3:00 PM” through the wireless Bluetooth headset U2, if “Ms. Wang” wants to respond to the first user, “Ms. Wang” can speak a message “Mr. Chen, I'll attend the meeting on time, OVER” to the wireless Bluetooth headset U2. Then, the wireless Bluetooth headset U2 will receive the message “Mr. Chen, I'll attend the meeting on time, OVER” and divide “Mr. Chen, I'll attend the meeting on time, OVER” into “Mr. Chen” as the third partial voice message P3 and “I'll attend the meeting on time” as the fourth partial voice message P4. Then, the wireless Bluetooth headset U2 will transmit “Mr. Chen” of the third partial voice message P3 and “I'll attend the meeting on time” of the fourth partial voice message P4 to the second electronic apparatus H2 corresponding to the wireless Bluetooth headset U2.
Then, as shown in
If the determining result of the step S20 is NO, the method will perform the step S21. In the step S21, the second electronic apparatus H2 will determine whether the third partial voice message P3 corresponds to the first user in the communication object list of the communication application program APP through voice recognition calculus technology.
If the determining result of the step S20 is YES or the determining result of the step S21 is YES, as shown in
In the above-mentioned example, when the second electronic apparatus H2 receives “Mr. Chen” and “I'll attend the meeting on time”, the second electronic apparatus H2 will determine whether the communication application program APP sets “Mr. Chen” as the default user. If the communication application program APP does not set “Mr. Chen” as the default user, the second electronic apparatus H2 will determine whether “Mr. Chen” corresponds to any user in the communication object list of the communication application program APP through voice recognition calculus technology.
If the communication application program APP sets “Mr. Chen” as the default user or “Mr. Chen” corresponds to the first user in the communication object list of the communication application program APP, the second electronic apparatus H2 will transmit the message “I'll attend the meeting on time” to the first electronic apparatus H1 corresponding to the first user through the voice mail function of the communication application program APP. If “Mr. Chen” does not correspond to any user in the communication object list of the communication application program APP, the second electronic apparatus H2 will not send out the message “I'll attend the meeting on time”.
Then, as shown in
In the above-mentioned example, when the first electronic apparatus H1 performs the communication application program APP and receives the message “I'll attend the meeting on time” through the communication application program APP, the first electronic apparatus H1 will transmit the message “I'll attend the meeting on time” to the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 corresponding to the first electronic apparatus H1, so that the message “I'll attend the meeting on time” that “Ms. Wang” wants to inform “Mr. Chen” can be smoothly transmitted to the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 that “Mr. Chen” wears.
By doing so, the first user “Mr. Chen” wearing the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 and the second user “Ms. Wang” wearing the wireless Bluetooth headset U2 can talk to each other through the communication application program APP in the first electronic apparatus H1 corresponding to the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 and the second electronic apparatus H2 corresponding to the wireless Bluetooth headset U2, so that the intercom behavior between two wireless Bluetooth apparatuses can be successfully achieved.
In another embodiment, the first user wearing the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 can also achieve the broadcasting behavior through the communication application program APP.
In this embodiment, it is assumed that the communication object list of the communication application program APP includes the second user, a third user, a fourth user, a fifth user, and a sixth user, wherein a specific group of the communication object list includes the second user, the third user, and the fourth user. As shown in
As shown in
If the determining result of the step S12′ is YES or the determining result of the step S13′ is YES, the method will perform the step S14′. In the step S14′, the first electronic apparatus H1 will transmit the second partial voice message P2 to the second electronic apparatus H2 corresponding to the second user, the third electronic apparatus H3 corresponding to the third user, and the fourth electronic apparatus H4 corresponding to the fourth user through the voice mail function of the communication application program APP, as shown in
Then, in the step S16′, the second electronic apparatus H2, the third electronic apparatus H3, and the fourth electronic apparatus H4 will perform the communication application program APP respectively and receive the second partial voice message P2 through the communication application program APP respectively. Afterwards, as shown in
Another embodiment of the invention is a wireless Bluetooth apparatus with intercom and broadcasting functions. In practical applications, the wireless Bluetooth apparatus can be a wireless Bluetooth headset, a wireless Bluetooth bracelet, a wireless Bluetooth watch, a wireless Bluetooth glasses, or any other apparatus having wireless Bluetooth voice message transmission function. It should be noticed that the wireless Bluetooth headset is taken as an example in this embodiment, but not limited to this.
Please refer to
In this embodiment, the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 uses the receiving module 50 to receive a first voice message VM1 from a first user USER1. The operation interface 56 is operated by the first user USER1 to emit a start signal T to the processing module 52 to start the processing module 52 to divide the first voice message VM1 into a first partial voice message P1 and a second partial voice message P2. Wherein, the first partial voice message P1 can include a name voice message corresponding to the second user and the second partial voice message P2 can include an information voice message to inform the second user, but not limited to this.
Then, the wireless transmission module 54 transmits the first partial voice message P1 and the second partial voice message P2 to the first electronic apparatus H1 corresponding to the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 through wireless Bluetooth technology.
In practical applications, the receiving module 50 can be a voice receiving unit, such as a microphone. The operation interface 56 can be a bottom originally disposed on the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 or a specific bottom additionally disposed on the wireless Bluetooth headset U1, but not limited to this. It should be noticed that if the operation interface 56 is the bottom originally disposed on the wireless Bluetooth headset U1, in order to avoid the confusion of the user, it can be set that when the bottom is pressed one time, the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 performs the answering function; when the bottom is pressed twice, the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 performs the intercom/broadcasting function.
Then, when the first electronic apparatus H1 receives first partial voice message P1 and the second partial voice message P2, the first electronic apparatus H1 will determine whether the communication application program APP sets the second user as a default user. If the determining result of the first electronic apparatus H1 is NO, that is to say, the communication application program APP does not set the second user as the default user, the first electronic apparatus H1 will determine whether the first partial voice message P1 corresponds to the second user in a communication object list of the communication application program APP through voice recognition calculus technology.
If the determining result of the first electronic apparatus H1 is that the communication application program APP sets the second user as the default user or the determining result of the first electronic apparatus H1 is that the first partial voice message P1 corresponds to the second user in the communication object list of the communication application program APP, the first electronic apparatus H1 will transmit the second partial voice message P2 to the second electronic apparatus H2 corresponding to the second user through a voice mail function of the communication application program APP, and the second electronic apparatus H2 receives the second partial voice message P2 through the communication application program APP, as shown in
Then, the second electronic apparatus H2 will transmit the second partial voice message P2 to another wireless Bluetooth headset U2 corresponding to the second electronic apparatus H2 through wireless Bluetooth technology, so that the second partial voice message P2 that the first user wants to inform the second user can be smoothly transmitted to the another wireless Bluetooth headset U2 that the second user wears, as shown in
Please refer to
In this embodiment, if the second user wants to respond to the first user after the second user hears the second partial voice message P2, the wireless Bluetooth headset U2 will use the receiving module 50 to receive a second voice message VM2 from the second user. The operation interface 56 is operated by the second user USER2 to emit a start signal T to the processing module 52 to start the processing module 52 to divide the first voice message VM1 into a third partial voice message P3 and a fourth partial voice message P4. Wherein, the third partial voice message P3 can include a name voice message corresponding to the first user and the fourth partial voice message P4 can include an information voice message to inform the first user, but not limited to this.
Then, the wireless transmission module 54 transmits the third partial voice message P3 and the fourth partial voice message P4 to the second electronic apparatus H2 corresponding to the wireless Bluetooth headset U2 through wireless Bluetooth technology.
Afterwards, when the second electronic apparatus H2 receives the third partial voice message P3 and the fourth partial voice message P4, the second electronic apparatus H2 will determine whether the communication application program APP sets the first user as a default user.
If the determining result of the second electronic apparatus H2 is NO, that is to say, the communication application program APP does not set the first user as the default user, the second electronic apparatus H2 will determine whether the third partial voice message P3 corresponds to the first user in a communication object list of the communication application program APP through voice recognition calculus technology.
If the determining result of the second electronic apparatus H2 is that the communication application program APP sets the first user as the default user or the determining result of the second electronic apparatus H2 is that the third partial voice message P3 corresponds to the first user in the communication object list of the communication application program APP, the second electronic apparatus H2 will transmit the fourth partial voice message P4 to the first electronic apparatus H1 corresponding to the first user through a voice mail function of the communication application program APP, and the first electronic apparatus H1 receives the fourth partial voice message P4 through the communication application program APP, as shown in
Then, as shown in
By doing so, the first user wearing the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 and the second user wearing the wireless Bluetooth headset U2 can talk to each other through the communication application program APP in the first electronic apparatus H1 corresponding to the wireless Bluetooth headset U1 and the second electronic apparatus H2 corresponding to the wireless Bluetooth headset U2, so that the intercom behavior between two wireless Bluetooth apparatuses can be successfully achieved.
