Method for detecting voice and electronic device using the same
First Claim
1. An electronic device comprising:
- a housing;
a microphone disposed in or within a predetermined distance of a first portion of the housing;
a speaker disposed in or within a predetermined distance of a second portion of the housing;
a communication circuit;
a processor electrically connected to the microphone, the speaker, and the communication circuit; and
a memory electrically connected to the processor and wherein the memory is configured to store a message to be provided as a voice through the speaker,wherein the processor is configured to execute instructions stored in the memory to perform operations comprising;
determining time information corresponding to a first part of the message if providing of the message is necessary,outputting the message through the speaker,receiving an input sound through the microphone while at least a part of the message is output, andprocessing the input sound using the time information to detect at least one word or sentence from the input sound,wherein processing the input sound includes ignoring at least a part of the input sound using the time information, andwherein the time information comprises a reproduction time of the first part of the message.

Abstract
An electronic device is provided, which includes a housing; a microphone located on or within a predetermined distance of a first portion of the housing; a speaker located on or within a predetermined distance of a second portion of the housing; a communication circuit; a processor electrically connected to the microphone, the speaker, and the communication circuit; and a memory electrically connected to the processor configured to store a message to be provided as a voice through the speaker, wherein the memory stores instructions, wherein the processor is configured to execute the instructions to perform operations comprising: determining time information corresponding to a first part of the message if providing of the message is necessary, outputting the message through the speaker, receiving an input sound through the microphone while at least a part of the message is output, and processing the input sound using the time information to detect at least one word or sentence from the input sound, and the processing the input sound includes processing the input sound by ignoring at least a part of the input sound using the time information.

7. A method for processing an input sound of an electronic device, comprising:
-
storing a message to be provided as a voice through a speaker; determining time information corresponding to a first part of the message if providing of the message is necessary; outputting the message through the speaker; receiving an input sound through a microphone while at least a part of the message is output; and processing the input sound using the time information in order to detect at least one word or sentence from the input sound, wherein the processing the input sound includes processing the input sound by ignoring at least a part of the input sound using the time information, and wherein the time information comprises a reproduction time of the first part of the message. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. An electronic device comprising:
-
an output disposed at one end of the electronic device; an input disposed at another end of the electronic device; a keyword detection module comprising keyword detection circuitry; a processor electrically connected to the output, the input, and the keyword detection module; and a memory electrically connected to the processor, wherein the processor is configured to execute instructions stored in the memory to perform operations comprising; analyzing a sound source that is reproduced at the output, and limiting keyword detection at the input to correspond to the analysis, wherein the analyzing includes analyzing a reproduction time of a keyword that is included in the sound source, and the limiting the keyword detection includes limiting the keyword detection at the input if the analyzed reproduction time of the keyword arrives. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
