A wireless noise-cancelling earplug includes a housing within which at least an active noise cancellation (ANC) circuit for producing anti-noise, a speaker for emitting the anti-noise as a sound wave, and a battery for powering at least the ANC circuit. The earplug further includes an audio cavity for guiding the sound wave from the speaker out of the earplug, at least one microphone for measuring ambient noise and feeding the measured ambient noise to the ANC circuit, and a passive noise reduction unit for blocking ambient noise.

Detachable wearable electronic eyeglasses and head mounted gear with a plurality of electronic functions and interchangeable electronic function, and a wearable computer with optimal weight distribution and stretchable arms.

Various techniques are provided to implement and use an earpiece having an attachment mount. In one example, an earpiece includes an arcuate rib having a lobe disposed on an upper end thereof and configured to engage with a crus of a helix and an antihelix of a user's ear. The earpiece also includes a mount extending from the arcuate rib and comprising a snap clip configured to engage and position an audio device in contact with the user's ear. Other implementations and related methods are also provided.

This disclosure describes techniques for detecting voice commands from a user of an ear-based device. The ear-based device may include an in-ear facing microphone to capture sound emitted in an ear of the user, and an exterior facing microphone to capture sound emitted in an exterior environment of the user. The in-ear microphone may generate an inner audio signal representing the sound emitted in the ear, and the exterior microphone may generate an outer audio signal representing sound from the exterior environment. The ear-based device may compute a ratio of a power of the inner audio signal to the outer audio signal and may compare this ratio to a threshold. If the ratio is larger than the threshold, the ear-based device may detect the voice of the user. Further, the ear-based device may set a value of the threshold based on a level of acoustic seal of the ear-based device.

A noise cancelling headset includes first and second earpieces, each earpiece including a respective feedback microphone, a respective feed-forward microphone, and a respective output driver. A first feedback filter receives an input from at least the first feedback microphone and produces a first filtered feedback signal. A first feed-forward filter receives an input from at least the first feed-forward microphone and produces a first filtered feed-forward signal. A first summer combines the first filtered feedback signal and the first filtered feed-forward signal and produces a first output signal. An output interface provides the first output signal as an output from the headset.

An earphone including a speaker that outputs sounds to a uniaxial direction; a sound guide tube offset from a center of the speaker to and disposed on one side of a direction orthogonal to the uniaxial direction, the sound guide tube extending to a direction parallel to the uniaxial direction; and a housing accommodating the speaker and supporting a base end of the sound guide tube, wherein the housing is broadened from the base end to other side opposite to the one side, toward a location where the speaker is accommodated, and has an inclined surface that inclines at the broadened location, and a separation distance between a central axis of the speaker and a central axis of the sound guide tube is smaller than an internal radius of the sound guide tube.

Conformable vented eartips are provided. A comfortable vented eartip includes an ear insertion end, an earphone insertion end opposite the ear insertion end, a base at the ear insertion end extending toward the earphone extension end, a central opening extending through the base to form an inner sound channel through the base, and at least one flange. The at least one flange includes a first flange end extending from the base at an angle away from the base and toward the earphone insertion end at a second flange end. The at least one flange includes at least one swept indent extending between the first flange end and the second flange end. The at least one swept indent sweeps laterally around a portion of a circumference of the at least one flange.

A system includes a safety helmet and an earpiece, wherein the earpiece is configured to determine when a user of the earpiece is wearing the safety helmet. The earpiece may include a touch surface and at least one sensor associated with the touch surface and wherein the earpiece is configured to ignore input at the touch surface when the user of the earpiece is wearing the safety helmet. A method includes sensing by an earpiece that a user is wearing a helmet and deactivating sensors associated with a touch input area on the ear piece when the user is wearing the helmet. A method includes charging an earpiece using a battery of a helmet while a user is wearing the earpiece and the helmet. A method includes communicating data from one or more sensors of a helmet or one or more sensors of a motorcycle to an earpiece and providing audio output indicating of the data to a user through a speaker of the earpiece.

An earpiece includes an earpiece housing, a processor disposed within the ear piece housing, at least one inertial sensor disposed within the earpiece housing, the at least one inertial sensor operatively connected to the processor, and a wireless transceiver disposed within the earpiece housing and operatively connected to the processor. The earpiece is configured to exchange inertial data with a vehicle having one or more inertial sensors. The vehicle may be a motorcycle, moped, scooter, bicycle, electric bicycle, personal transporter, hover board, or other type of vehicle.
