SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND APPARATUSES FOR INSTITUTING A QUIET BLENDING MODE
Provided are methods, systems, and apparatuses for instituting a quiet blending mode. A method includes capturing, via at least one sensor, one or more sound and/or vibration inputs from a blender, comparing the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs to a threshold parameter, and transmitting a command to a blender motor to reduce power when the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs exceed the threshold parameter.
1 . A method of instituting a quiet blending mode, the method comprising:
capturing, via at least one sensor, one or more sound and/or vibration inputs from a blender;
comparing the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs to a threshold parameter; and
transmitting a command to a blender motor to reduce power when the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs exceed the threshold parameter.
2 . The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, via an interface, an input to initiate the quiet blending mode; and
engaging the quiet blending mode to capture the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs.
3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one sensor comprises a microphone.
4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one sensor comprises an accelerometer.
5 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the capturing, the comparing, and the transmitting are continuously completed to form a feedback loop.
6 . The method according to claim 1 , further comprising transmitting a second command to the blender motor to increase power when the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs are below the threshold parameter.
7 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein transmitting the command to the blender motor is in accordance with a blender program.
8 . A system for instituting a quiet blending mode, the system comprising:
a blender comprising a motor;
a capture component comprising at least one sensor configured to capture one or more sound and/or vibration inputs from the blender; and
a controller communicatively coupled to the motor and the capture component, the controller configured to:
instruct the at least one sensor to capture the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs from the blender,
compare the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs to a threshold parameter, and
instruct the motor to reduce power when the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs exceed the threshold parameter.
9 . The system according to claim 8 , further comprising an interface communicatively coupled to the controller.
10 . The system according to claim 9 , wherein the interface is a user device interface.
11 . The system according to claim 9 , wherein the interface is a user interface of the blender.
12 . The system according to claim 9 , wherein the controller is further configured to:
receive, via the interface, an input to initiate the quiet blending mode; and
engage the quiet blending mode to capture the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs.
13 . The system according to claim 8 , wherein the at least one sensor comprises a microphone.
14 . The system according to claim 8 , wherein the at least one sensor comprises an accelerometer.
15 . The system according to claim 8 , wherein the controller is further configured to complete the capturing, the comparing, and the transmitting continuously to form a feedback loop.
16 . The system according to claim 8 , wherein the controller is further configured to transmit a second command to the motor to increase power when the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs are below the threshold parameter.
17 . The system according to claim 8 , wherein the controller is configured to instruct the motor in accordance with a blender program.
18 . A blender, comprising:
a motor; and
a controller communicatively coupled to the motor and configured to:
capture, via at least one sensor, one or more sound and/or vibration inputs from the motor,
compare the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs to a threshold parameter, and
instruct the motor to reduce power when the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs exceed the threshold parameter.
19 . The blender according to claim 18 , further comprising:
an interface communicatively coupled to the controller,
wherein the controller is further configured to:
receive, via the interface, an input to initiate a quiet blending mode; and
engage the quiet blending mode to capture the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs.
20 . The blender according to claim 18 , wherein the controller is further configured to transmit a second command to the motor to increase power when the one or more sound and/or vibration inputs are below the threshold parameter.
