Apple wants people to ditch regular headphones as they can be “somewhat obtrusive to wear and can inhibit the user's ability to hear ambient sounds.'
Now, you’re probably looking at the clickbaity article title and wonder what Star Trek has to do with all of this. Fans of the series are aware of the famous communicator badge, used by the crew members of USS Enterprise throughout the series , and it’s been every nerd’s dream to brough such a device to the real world.“A wearable device can provide an audio module that is operable to provide audio output from a distance away from the ears of the user.
This is pretty cool, and would allow your ship medic to keep an eye of your vitals during critical missions... or just feed your smartphone with useful biometrics about your exercises, health, etc. But the former sounds way more exciting! Finally, this is not just a simple bluetooth speaker, attached to your collar . The patent goes on to say that
"the wearable device can further include microphones and/or connections to other devices that facilitate calibration of the audio module of the wearable device." Of course, we’re talking about a concept here - it’s just a patent paper, a reassurance that a good idea won’t be stolen by somebody else. Wouldn't it be nice, though, if Apple released the iBadge next year, capable of focusing audio directly to your ears, and reminding you to take your phaser… sorry, umbrella before you head out? Beam me up, Scotty!
