The headset system (1) is adapted to transfer a call from the first telecommunication device (3) to the second telecommunication device (6), when the first connector (7) is unplugged from the first telecommunication device (3). The invention also relates to An external device (8) comprising a second connector (31) to be attached to a first connector (7) of a headset (2), means (9, 10) for connecting the external device (8) to a personal computer (4) with a softphone installed on it, a controller (36) adapted to send a call transfer control signal to the softphone, when the first connector (7) is unplugged from the second connector (31), whereby an active call on the first telecommunication device (4) is transferred to a second telecommunication device (6).
Abstract:
A headset and a method configured to process audio signals from multiple microphones, comprising: a first pair of microphones (101,102) outputting a first pair of microphone signals and a second pair of microphones (103, 104) outputting a second pair of microphone signals; a first near-field beamformer (105) and a second near-field beamformer (106) each configured to receive a pair of microphone signals and adapt the spatial sensitivity of a respective pair of microphones as measured in a respective beamformed signal (XL; XR) output from a respective beamformer (105; 106); wherein the spatial sensitivity is adapted to suppress noise relative to a desired signal; a third beamformer (107) configured to dynamically combine the signals (XL; XR) output from the first beamformer (105) and the second beamformer (106) into a combined signal (XC); wherein the signals are combined such that signal energy in the combined signal is minimized while a desired signal is preserved; and a noise reduction unit (109) configured to process the combined signal (XC) from the third beamformer (107) and output the combined signal such that noise is reduced.
Abstract:
An earphone device (1) to be worn in the ear, which earphone device (1) comprising a main body (18) to be arranged in the concha (19) of the outer ear (14) of a user and an optical sensor (35), which optical sensor (35) comprises a light emitter (16) and a light detector (17). The earphone device (1) comprises window means (8, 9) through which light emitted by the light emitter (16) can be transmitted. The window means (8, 9) comprises an end face (31) adapted to abut a conchal wall (37) at a sensing position (36). The main body (18) comprises a speaker protrusion (26) to be inserted into to ear canal (15). The distance between the speaker protrusion (26) and the end face (31) is adjustable.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a headset and an ear hook for a headset, the headset comprising a housing portion and a microphone component, the microphone component comprising a microphone boom, the microphone boom comprising a wire, wherein the ear hook comprises: a first end structurally connected to the housing portion; a second end comprising a wire holder configured for detachable retention of the wire from the microphone boom; and where a portion of the ear hook between the first end and the second end is configured for attaching the ear hook to an ear of a user.
Abstract:
A headset system for use with especially in a call center environment, in which method a wireless connection is established between headset and base unit, and the wireless connection is maintained while indicating from a headset user interface to the base unit that the headset is available for receiving an incoming call. The headset system is connected to a telephone system and has a processor configured to receive mode information and to operate according to the received mode information. The headset has a headset user interface and controls the headset signal processor to operate in accordance with user input. The headset is further configured to provide the end-of-call information to the base unit while maintaining the wireless connection.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a controller for controlling an electronic device. The invention may e.g. be used to control a headset or another electronic device connected to the controller.The controller (1) comprises an elongate controller body (3) having a first body end (4) and a second body end (5). The controller body (3) comprises an elongate rotatable body section (10) adapted to be rotated by a user about a longitudinal axis (11) extending through the first body end (4) and the second body end (5). The rotatable body section (10) has a radially outer side surface (12) extending between a first section end (13) near the first body end (4) and a second section end (14) near the second body end (5). The rotatable body section (10) has a size and shape allowing the user to rotate the rotatable body section (10) about the longitudinal axis (11) by performing a rolling action using three or more fingers (21, 22, 23). The controller (1) further comprises a sensing means (30) adapted to detect a rotation of the rotatable body section (10) about the longitudinal axis (11) and to provide a control signal (Sc) indicating one or more control commands to the electronic device in dependence on detecting a rotation.The controller (1) is characterized in that the sensing means (30) further is adapted to distinguish between a three-finger rolling action and a corresponding two-finger rolling action and to provide the control signal (Se) in dependence on detecting a three-finger rolling action.This may provide a controller (1) with a significantly reduced rate of “false alarms” as well as an unobtrusive, reliable and at the same time simple and easy-to-use interface to the user.
Abstract:
This disclosure provides a headset comprising a first earphone with a first face facing the head of a user wearing the headset, a headband attached at a first end to the first earphone and a microphone arm rotatably attached to the first earphone. The microphone arm can rotate about a first axis essentially perpendicular to the first side, whereby the microphone arm can be rotated into to a rest position, where it extends along the headband. The headband comprises a first magnetic holding element and the microphone arm comprises at a co-operating second magnetic holding element, whereby the microphone arm can be magnetically adhered against the headband in the rest position.
