An audio apparatus and a control method therefor are provided. The present audio apparatus comprises: a vibration part for providing audio using vibration; a sensing part for sensing one or more of the material and the thickness of an object to which the audio apparatus is attached; a pressure regulation part for regulating the pressure that is applied to the object by the vibration part; and a processor for controlling the pressure regulation part in order to regulate the pressure applied to the object by the vibration part based on one or more of the material and the thickness of the object that is sensed by the sensing part.

Audio apparatus and control method therefor

An apparatus to detect a direction or velocity of a movement of equipment by using a single sensor. The apparatus includes a conversion unit that converts sensed information obtained from the single sensor into a voltage value corresponding to the movement of the equipment, a determination unit that determines whether one of a first interrupt and a second interrupt occurs, the first interrupt occurring when the converted voltage value reaches a threshold value and the second interrupt occurring when a preset amount of time passes from a time when the single sensor starts operating, and a calculation unit that calculates one of the direction and the velocity of the movement of the equipment by using voltage information at time s when the first interrupt or the second interrupt occurs and voltage information at a predetermined time before the times when the first interrupt or the second interrupt occurs.
