Apparatus for position-dependent control
View Patent ↗An apparatus for position-dependent control has a control unit, where the control unit takes the position of the apparatus as a basis for: a) controlling damping and/or echo cancellation for the apparatus, and/or b) switching a summit of the apparatus on or off or to a power saving mode, and/or c) prompting call acceptance.
1. An apparatus for position-dependent control, comprising:
a control unit, wherein dependent on the position of the apparatus the control unit:
controls an attenuation or an echo cancellation of the apparatus, or
switches a subunit of the apparatus on or off or into a power-saving mode, or
initiates acceptance of a call, wherein
the control unit controls the attenuation as a function of the position and as a function of a frequency of signals output to an input by a user of the apparatus,
the control unit specifies a frequency range for signals output to the user or signals supplied to the apparatus from the user, and
the control unit specifies filter coefficients of a filter unit in the transmission branch or selects one of a plurality of filter units which can be switched into the transmission branch.
2. An apparatus for position-dependent control, comprising:
a control unit, wherein dependent on the position of the apparatus the control unit:
controls an attenuation or an echo cancellation of the apparatus, or
switches a subunit of the apparatus on or off or into a power-saving mode, or
initiates acceptance of a call, wherein
the apparatus further comprises a detection unit to detect the position of the apparatus, the detection unit having an output connected to an input of the control unit,
the control unit switches at least a portion of the apparatus off as a function of the position detected by the detection unit,
the detection unit includes an acceleration sensor,
the control unit switches a display unit of the apparatus off to enter a power-saving mode,
the detection unit detects if the display unit is facing in a direction of the earth's gravitational pull, and
the display unit is automatically switched off by the control unit when the display unit faces the direction of the earth's gravitational pull.
