ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING MODIFIABLE OUTPUT PARAMETER
First Claim
1. A method of operating an electronic device, the method comprising:
- emitting a first sound from the electronic device;
receiving a second sound at the electronic device, the second sound based at least in part on the first sound;
comparing, at a processor of the electronic device, at least one characteristic of the first sound to at least one corresponding characteristic of the second sound;
receiving, at the processor, output data from at least one sensor; and
modifying an output parameter of the electronic device in response to the comparison of the first sound and the second sound and the output data from the at least one sensor.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for executing a method for modifying an output parameter of an electronic device. The method and apparatus emits a first sound. The method and apparatus are further receive a second sound at the electronic device, the second sound based at least in part on the first sound. The processor of the electronic device compares at least one characteristic of the first sound to at least one corresponding characteristic of the second sound. The processor further receives output data from at least one sensor and modifies an output parameter of the electronic device in response to the comparison of the first sound and the second sound and the output data from the at least one sensor.

12. An electronic device comprising:
-
at least one notification device; at least one sound output device; at least one sound receiving device; at least one sensor; a processor module communicatively coupled to the at least one notification device, the at least one sound output device, the at least one sound receiving device, and the at least one sensor and configured to execute instructions to; triggering emission of a first sound by the at least one sound output device; receive data from the sound receiving device indicative of a second sound, the second sound based at least in part on the first sound; compare at least one characteristic of the first sound to a corresponding characteristic of the second sound; receive data from the at least one sensor; modify an output parameter in response to the comparison of the at least one characteristic of the first sound to a corresponding characteristic of the second sound and the data received from the at least one sensor, wherein the output parameter is transmitted to the at least one notification device. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
