1. A control system comprising:
- an earphone or headset for reproduction of audio signals which has a sensor device for detecting head movement information and/or head position information and a transmitting device for transmitting the detected movement information and/or the position information,a processing device for evaluating the movement information and/or position information from the transmitting unit and for outputting at least one control command or control signal dependent on the evaluation,wherein the processing device is adapted to recognise a movement pattern from the movement information and/or position information and to output at least one control command or control signal dependent on the recognised movement pattern, andan activation unit for activating or deactivating the sensor device and/or the transmitting device for preventing the unintentional output of control commands.

Abstract
There is provided a control system (1) comprising an earphone (2) and a processing device (3). The control system (1) has a processing device (3) for the evaluation of head movement information and/or head position information. In that case the processing device is adapted to output at least one control signal dependent on the evaluation, wherein the earphone has a sensor device (9a, 9b, 9c) for detecting the movement information and/or position information and a transmitting device (10) for transmitting the movement information and/or the position information to the processing device.

9. A method of controlling a reproduction of audio signals in an earphone or headset comprising the steps:
-
detecting head movement information and/or head position information with a sensor device on an earphone or headset; evaluating the movement information and/or position information with a processing unit for recognising a movement pattern from the movement information and/or position information; outputting at least one control command or control signal dependent on the recognised movement pattern, and activating or deactivating the sensor device to prevent the output of control commands by error. - View Dependent Claims (10)
