Audio Device with Automatic Fan Control Based on a Volume Level of Audio Content

摘要

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for maintaining a temperature of an audio device during playback of audio content without audio interference. An embodiment operates by receiving a data stream comprising audio content for playback. The audio device determines a volume level of the audio content using the data stream. The audio device then controls a cooling device based on the volume level compared to a threshold value. This reduces the amount of time the cooling device is turned on during playback of the audio content. This reduces audio interference, improves the user playback experience, and prevents overheating of the audio device which improves reliability and reduces audio device failure rate.

主权项

1. A computer implemented method for maintaining a temperature of an audio device within certain parameters during playback of audio content in a manner that decreases or eliminates audio interference, comprising:
receiving a data stream comprising the audio content for playback; determining a volume level at a time portion of the audio content from crowd sourced metadata associated with the data stream, wherein multiple users generate the crowd sourced metadata prior to playback of the audio content by indicating the volume level at the time portion of the audio content; and adjusting a power state of a cooling device during playback of the audio content by comparing the volume level at the time portion of the audio content to a threshold value, wherein the cooling device maintains the temperature of the audio device.
