Abstract

A method of processing telephone voice output is applied in an electronic device with telephone function. When any one of the two communicators is a hearing-impaired user, at least one of the electronic devices will obtain the corresponding voice adjustment parameters according to the receiver identification of the hearing-impaired user. Therefore, the voice adjusting program is able to process the voice in advance based on the voice adjustment parameters to help the hearing-impaired user hear better.

Claims (16)

1. A telephone voice output method applied to an electronic device having a telephone function comprising the following steps:

receiving a receiver's caller ID information or a caller's caller ID information;

obtaining a voice modification parameter corresponding to the receiver or the caller according to the receiver's caller ID information or the caller's caller ID information;

receiving an input voice;

transforming the input voice into an output voice by a voice modification processing program, wherein the input voice is modified by the voice modification processing program according to the voice modification parameter; and

outputting the output voice.

2. The telephone voice output method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the voice modification parameter records a sound amplifying parameter, a hearing ability parameter, or a frequency modulation parameter.

3. The telephone voice output method as claimed in claim 2 further comprising: transmitting the receiver's caller ID information or the caller's caller ID information to a voice modification parameter service server via an Internet, such that the voice modification parameter is provided by the voice modification parameter service server via the Internet.

4. An electronic device with telephone function comprising: a processor, a memory, a microphone module, a speaker, and a voice signal communication module, wherein the memory, the microphone module, the speaker, and the voice signal communication module are electronically connected with the processor, the memory stores a software program, and the processor implements the software program for executing the following steps:

receiving a receiver's caller ID information or a caller's caller ID information;

obtaining a voice modification parameter corresponding to the receiver or the caller according to the receiver's caller ID information or the caller's caller ID information;

receiving an input voice;

transforming the input voice into an output voice by a voice modification processing program, wherein the input voice is modified by the voice modification processing program according to the voice modification parameter; and

outputting the output voice.

5. The electronic device with telephone function as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the voice modification parameter records a sound amplifying parameter, a hearing ability parameter, or a frequency modulation parameter.

6. The electronic device with telephone function as claimed in claim 5 , wherein after the processor implements the software program, the electronic device with telephone function further executes: transmitting the receiver's caller ID information or the caller's caller ID information to a voice modification parameter service server via an Internet, such that the voice modification parameter is provided by the voice modification parameter service server via the Internet.
