These look like they can do a lot for just two little earbuds. The Here One audio system was created by Doppler Labs after years of research into making wearable technology that’s “more immersive and more human.” This represents the company’s first product, designed with the lofty goal of redefining “the way we engage with sound through technology,” no less.
Here One is now available for preorder and offers the lofty promise of two little “smart buds” that, together with a connected app, will be able to stream music from your smartphone and take hands-free phone calls, as well as filter out unwanted street noise while still allowing you to stay aware of your surroundings if you so choose (while cycling, for instance). Beyond the wireless aspect, the main selling point of Here One is that you can put them in your ears and take control of the sound around you, as you’re offered simultaneous control over the volume of your streamed audio and the ambient sound around you. It’s also trailblazing the idea of a “hearable,” a computerized object you place in your ears upon waking and leave in all day.
