There are described headphones comprising earcups to be placed about ears of a user, with a headband linking the earcups and to be extending above a head of the user. A flexible band distinct from the headband is secured below the headband for contact with the head of the user. Removable headband sensors are embedded in the flexible band and have a portion thereof protruding downwardly from the flexible band to reach the scalp. The flexible band has a flexibility which makes the flexible band deform under the weight of the earcups to conform with the head of the user to ensure high quality contact between the headband electrodes and the scalp. There are further provided earcup electrodes on the earcups for contact with a region on or behind an ear of the user. Signals from the electrodes can be used for different purposes such as concentration monitoring and feedback.

The present disclosure relates to an acoustic output apparatus. The acoustic output apparatus comprising: at least one low-frequency acoustic driver that outputs sound from at least two first sound guiding holes; at least one high-frequency acoustic driver that outputs sound from at least two second sound guiding holes; and a controller configured to cause the low-frequency acoustic driver to output sound in a first frequency range, and cause the high-frequency acoustic driver to output sound in a second frequency range, wherein the second frequency range includes frequencies higher than the first frequency range.

A waterproof audio earphone device with at least one brace with a curved shape, is configured in a necklace-like manner, with an adjustable securing mechanism coupled to a portion of the brace, to tighten the brace about the prospective user's neck. A smartwatch or music device holder (optionally removable) is disposed in the brace near chest level and a waterproof wireless communication module is coupled to the brace and configured to communicate to a prospective smartwatch/music device disposed in the holder. Audio volume control buttons are disposed on the wireless communication module or the brace or along the earphone wire(s). A pair of earphones are coupled via wires to at least one of the wireless communication module(s) and the brace. And water sealing tips disposed interior of the earphones, the tips preserving the audio quality of the earphones when worn in an aquatic or semi-aquatic setting by a prospective user.

The present disclosure relates to an apparatus. The apparatus may comprise two ear-hook assemblies configured to be hung outside of two ears of a user respectively, and a rear-hook assembly in a curved shape configured to connect the two ear-hook assemblies and wrap around a rear side of the head of the user. The rear-hook assembly may include an elastic metal filament, wires, and an elastic covering body covering the elastic metal filament and the wires.

This hearing device, for example, includes a vibrator for transmitting vibration corresponding to a voice signal to the nasal bone of a user to let the user hear sound. The hearing device may further preferably include an eyeglass-type housing for carrying the vibrator in a position at which a nose pad is provided. The hearing device may also preferably incorporate a voice signal reception unit for receiving, wirelessly or by wire, a voice signal generated by an external sound source, or an internal sound source for self-generating a voice signal. When implementation as a hearing aid or a sound collector is contemplated, the external sound source or the internal sound source may preferably be a microphone for collecting ambient sound.

Disclosed is an intelligent head-mounted apparatus, comprising: a lens; a leg coupled to the lens and provided with a cavity therein; a sound generation device provided in the cavity and dividing the cavity into front and rear sound cavities; a sound outlet hole provided on the leg and in communication with the front sound cavity; main and auxiliary sound leakage holes provided on the leg and in communication with the rear sound cavity, positions of the sound outlet hole, the main sound leakage hole and the auxiliary sound leakage hole are configured such that the sound outlet hole and the auxiliary sound leakage hole are located at a front side of an auricle of a wearer, the main sound leakage hole is located at a rear side of the auricle of the wearer when the wearer wears the intelligent head-mounted apparatus.

Provided is an earphone in which electroencephalogram electrodes come into close contact more readily when worn. An earphone includes a housing having elasticity on at least one end portion side outer layer, a speaker accommodated inside the housing, and an eartip that is fixed on the end portion side of the housing having the elasticity, and that includes a sound conduit portion through which sound from the speaker passes, and an elastic electrode that performs sensing of an electroencephalogram of a wearer.

Herein described may be an embodiment of a surround sound headphone device for the production of surround sound which may comprise a first and second headphone assembly which may have acoustic chamber surrounds. The acoustic chamber surrounds may envelope a first and second acoustic chamber assembly. The first and second acoustic chamber assembly may have an acoustic chamber dividing partition, a one or more than one high frequency external port, a one or more than one low frequency external port, a one or more than one low frequency high frequency port, a one or more than one high frequency high frequency port, a one or more than one high frequency auditory source and, a one or more than one low frequency auditory source.

An example headphone device includes a first earpiece and a second earpiece, each earpiece including a respective antenna at least partially disposed within the earpiece. The headphone device includes a headbow adjustably connecting the first earpiece and the second earpiece, where the first earpiece and second earpiece are each extendable from the headbow, which includes an inner cavity. A cable assembly including a cable extends between the first earpiece and the second earpiece. The cable assembly is at least partially formed from an elastomeric material and is positioned within the inner cavity of the headbow in a resting position such that the cable assembly is extendable within the inner cavity of the headbow from the resting position when one or both of the first and second earpieces are extended from the headbow.
