Devin, that’s the spirit! That’s what I’m saying, some are poopooing the whole idea with out even seeing it.
I think it was Ricardo that was mentioning the inclusion of health censors which could track your health stats while wearing the headphones. Your ideas with VR are also good. I had mentioned how much better noise cancelation would be possible with a digital input. What about a headset that has both audio and video so think something like a google glasses plug in. I’ve been thinking about getting an Oculist Rift and using that to fly a drone. I finally have time again to work on that project and I’d like to take stereo audio signals as well as head movements to steer the drone and have audible feedback. Lightning would make that link possible to a phone instead of a laptop or desktop.
