Abstract
An acoustic system includes an in-vehicle device including a vehicle-side communicator; and an information processing device configured to be worn at an ear of a user and to communicate with the vehicle-side communicator. The information processing device includes: a sound pickup configured to pick up external sound; a sound emitter configured to emit sound to the ear of the user; a communicator configured to communicate with the in-vehicle device; and a computer. The computer is programmed to: determine, based on a result of communication with the in-vehicle device by the communicator, whether or not a predetermined condition is satisfied in a state where the information processing device is in a vehicle; and when determining that the predetermined condition is satisfied, cause the sound emitter to emit the external sound picked up by the sound pickup.
