1. A headset comprising:
- a sensor logic apparatus to obtain sensor data, the sensor data defining an orientation of the headset indicating whether the headset is being worn by a user; and
a configuration logic apparatus to configure the headset based on the sensor data, wherein the sensor data comprises a motion signature indicative of physical movement of the headset and the orientation of the headset defined by the sensor data, and wherein the configuration logic compares the motion signature from the sensor data with a plurality of different predefined motion signatures indicative of different physical user movements of the headset, that include at least a motion signature indicative of placement of the headset upon a user'"'"'s ear and a motion signature indicative of removal of the headset from the user'"'"'s ear, to determine whether the headset is being worn based on the orientation of the headset and a motion signature matched by the comparison.

15. A method comprising:
-
determining a motion signature and an orientation of a headset based on sensor data, wherein the motion signature is indicative of physical movement of the headset and determined from the sensor data based on a comparison of the motion signature with a plurality of different predefined motion signatures indicative of different user movements, wherein the different predefined motion signatures include at least a motion signature indicative of placement of the headset upon a user'"'"'s ear and a motion signature indicative of removal of the headset from the user'"'"'s ear; determining whether the headset is being worn by a user based on the motion signature matched by the comparison and the orientation of the headset; and configuring the headset based on whether the headset is being worn by a user. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)

19. A headset comprising:
-
an accelerometer to detect motions and an orientation of the headset, the motions providing a motion signature indicating physical movement of the headset for determination of whether the headset is being worn; and a configuration logic to configure the headset based on the motion signature and the orientation of the headset, wherein the motion signature is determined to indicate the headset is being worn from the detected motions based on a comparison of the motion signature with a plurality of different predefined motion signatures indicative of different user movements, wherein the different predefined motion signatures include at least a motion signature indicative of placement of the headset upon a user'"'"'s ear and a motion signature indicative of removal of the headset from the user'"'"'s ear. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22)
