Dyson unveiled its latest innovation, the Dyson OnTrac headphones, marking the company's first venture into high-fidelity audio devices. This article provides an in-depth look at the sophisticated features and technology incorporated in these headphones, emphasizing the revolutionary MyDyson app functionalities.
The new Dyson OnTrac headphones redefine personal audio with a focus on high performance and customization. Offering up to 55 hours of battery life with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) enabled, these headphones combine longevity with superior sound isolation.
Enthusiasts can personalize their headphones from a palette of over 2,000 colours for the outer caps and ear cushions, tailoring the device to their style and preferences.
Equipped with a proprietary Active Noise Cancellation algorithm, the Dyson OnTrac headphones utilize eight microphones to sample external sounds 384,000 times per second. This advanced technology is capable of reducing unwanted ambient noise by up to 40dB.
The headphones feature 40mm neodymium drivers designed to deliver precise and rich audio across a spectrum from 6 Hertz to an impressive 21,000Hz. The speaker housings are angled at 13 degrees towards the ear, enhancing the clarity and directness of sound delivery.
Certification from US Ergonomics confirms the Dyson OnTrac headphones as a leader in comfort. The design includes multi-pivot gimbal arms and strategically placed battery units within the headband to distribute weight evenly, reducing wearer fatigue. High-grade foam cushions and a soft micro-suede finish ensure an acoustic seal and comfortable fit, adaptable across various head sizes.
The MyDyson app serves as a control center for the OnTrac headphones, introducing several cutting-edge features that enhance the user experience. Real-time sound tracking monitors audio levels both inside and outside the ear cups to protect hearing. Users can select from three tailored EQ settings - Bass Boost, Neutral, and Enhanced to fine-tune their listening experience according to their preference.
Additional functionalities include:
Head Detect: Utilizing capacitive sensors, the headphones automatically pause when removed and resume playback when worn.
Intuitive Joystick Controls: Users can easily navigate through tracks, adjust volume, or activate voice commands with a simple joystick.
Crystal-Clear Calls: Dual beam-forming microphones focus on the user's voice while minimizing background noise, ensuring clear call quality.
Automatic Software Updates: The app not only adjusts settings but also keeps the headphones updated with the latest software enhancements.
