MOBILE COMMUNICATING TERMINAL AND METHOD FOR SWITCHING BETWEEN NORMAL MODE AND HANDS-FREE MODE THEREOF
First Claim
1. A mobile communicating terminal capable of switching between a normal mode and a hands-free mode automatically, the mobile communicating terminal comprising:
- a primary transducer for outputting audible sounds in the normal mode;
a secondary transducer for outputting audible sounds in the hands-free mode, the secondary transducer having a different output power from the primary transducer; and
a controlling unit for automatically changing the mobile communicating terminal between the normal mode and the hands-free mode according to a current reflection distance and a predetermined reflection distance;
wherein when the current reflection distance is determined to be less than or equal to the predetermined reflection distance, the controlling unit switches the mobile communicating terminal to the normal mode, when the current reflection distance is determined greater than the predetermined reflection distance, the controlling unit switches the mobile communicating terminal to the hands-free mode.

Abstract
A mobile communicating terminal includes a primary transducer, a secondary transducer and a controlling unit. The primary transducer is used for outputting audible sounds in the normal mode. The secondary transducer is used for outputting audible sounds in the hands-free mode, whose output power is different from the primary transducer. The controlling unit is used for automatically changing the mobile communicating terminal between the normal mode and the hands-free mode according to a current reflection distance and a predetermined reflection distance. A method for switching the mobile communicating terminal between the normal mode and the hands-free mode is also provided.

12. A mobile communicating terminal capable of outputting audible sounds in a first mode and a second mode, the mobile communicating terminal comprising:
-
a primary speaker for outputting audible sounds in the first mode; a secondary speaker having a different output power from the primary speaker for outputting audible sounds in the second mode; a light emitting module capable of outputting light; a photosensitive module capable of receiving light reflected off an object, and sending an electric current according to an intensity of reflected light; and a controlling module capable of determining if the electric current is greater than or equal to a predetermined value; wherein if the electric current is greater than or equal to a predetermined value, a first control signal is generated for switching the mobile communicating terminal to the first mode, if the electric current is less than the predetermined value, a second control signal is generated for switching the mobile communicating terminal to the second mode. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
