System and method for controlling states of a device

摘要

A system and method for automatically changing a state of a device coupled to a headphone device is provided. The system comprises a means for detecting if at least one earpiece of the headphone device is activated or deactivated. Based on an activation state or a change in an activation state of the at least one earpiece, a state change may occur in the device. The state change is determined by a preset of a control module.

1. A system for automated state changes in an audio-output enabled device coupled to a headphone device, the headphone device including a right id="REI-00009" date="20140701" ear pieceid="REI-00009" id="REI-00010" date="20140701" earpiece id="REI-00010" and a left id="REI-00011" date="20140701" ear pieceid="REI-00011" id="REI-00012" date="20140701" earpieceid="REI-00012" , the system comprising:
a processor in the audio-output enabled device, the processor configured to process digital audio data for output to the right earpiece and the left earpiece of the headphone device; sensors for detecting if the right earpiece and the left earpiece of the headphone device are each in an activated or deactivated state; and a control module configured for determiningstored in memory and executable by a processor to determine a device state change based on the activated or deactivated state of each earpiece and a current playback state of the audio-enabled device, the device state change including a playback state of the digital audio data.
