"Smart Headphones" Analyze Your Ear Drum

Currently in development, these headphones analyze the user’s distinct hearing response to output the perfect sound. Given the name of Nura, we’re curious if this adaptation will make its way to commercial use.

It works by inspecting the inner ear cavity, known as the cochlea, to determine the particular frequency response for the user. After a 30 second listening process, the headphones will then tailor any subsequent audio for the user’s unique profile.

How it works.
