On the offhand probability that you just’re an audiophile, you might spend a disproportionate quantity of your time taking a look at high-end headphones which have a disproportionate price ticket. Enter SparkFun’s Pete Lewis, with a set of headphones that he’s personalized so as to add high quality sound, stereo ambient passthrough, and listening to safety to a comparatively peculiar set of headphones. Right here’s extra from Hackaday:
On the floor the required parts are easy, however as standard, the satan is within the particulars. Microphone choice, for instance, required numerous testing. A great microphone wanted to have the ability to cope with extraordinarily loud ambient sounds with out distortion, but nonetheless be delicate sufficient to be helpful. [Pete] discovered answer, but additionally muses that two units of microphones (one for loud environments, and one for quieter) may be value a attempt.
After a number of prototypes, the result’s headphones that permit secure and loud band observe in a basement as simply as they supply high-quality music and situational consciousness whereas mowing the garden. Even so, [Pete]’s not finished but. He’s engaged on bettering consolation by utilizing photogrammetry to assist design and 3D print custom-fitted parts.
