Headphones are something we all have at home, there are a thousand models, headband, in-ear, bigger, smaller, with battery, with cable… we could be like that all day long. daytime. But what you have surely never seen are earphones with a screen.
Today we are going to see these particular helmets and analyze the features they offer us and what the screen integrated in their sides is for.
Futureahead, that’s what they’re called.
Its creator and designer of the prototype is called Olga Orel, and she is testing a new model that until today, at least I had never seen.
They are normal headphones, but they would have screens on the sides, which would show information about what we are listening to, from the album cover to a music video or the lyrics of the song.
It’s something quite curious to see. I don’t know how interesting it is, because it wouldn’t be us who would benefit from this new technology, but rather the people around us who would see what we play at all times.
Regarding the rest of the functions, it is interesting. bring a USB-C charging port with battery indicator. they are foldable, which is convenient to save space in transportation. They seem quite resistant and robust but without being heavy. In short, good headphones, but with a screen.
It is can be disabled to save battery or for simple privacy, although of course that would take away the only special function they have. We also do not know how long they last with activated and deactivated, something important to be able to give a review and see if the product can really interest you.
For the moment it seems that there is only one model with the headband in yellow. Its creator compares them to a futuristic design à la Cyberpunk 2077. And the truth is that they look like it. Another thing is how comfortable they will be because from the pictures it doesn’t look to us like they use an internal pad or anything nice to our ears besides their square shape which is what we are not used to and can cause us discomfort. Although without having tried them we cannot comment, it still surprises us.
For now We don’t have a price or release date., since these headphones would be the work of a person and not of a company, their marketing and distribution are therefore not so simple. We imagine that you release your prototype to see the acceptance of the people and according to the opinion of the people, think about launching it on the market, creating a crowdfunding or who knows. Another possibility is that we will never see them in operation and everything remains in a simple prototype..
I’m not really keen on the idea and think it’s more of a curiosity than a utility, since few of me actually see it. But hey, anything we have on hand is welcome. Someone will surely find it useful and end up buying it.
