eli5 how does noise canceling/transparent mode work on earbuds?
In: Technology
Imagine you’re wearing special headphones that can make noisy sounds around you disappear. These headphones have tiny microphones that listen to the noises, like people talking or cars honking. Then, they make special sound waves that are the opposite of those noises, kind of like whispering the opposite words. When these opposite sounds mix with the noisy sounds, they cancel each other out, making it quiet for you.
Now, transparent mode is like having super ears. You can still hear the important things, like your mum calling you or a car approaching, while you’re wearing these headphones. It’s like having a secret switch that lets you listen to both your music and the world around you at the same time.
