How Noise-Canceling Headphones Work

50 Comments

  1. Tried a noise cancelling headphone. I felt like it created vacuum first and then played the sound. I had a feeling similar of sitting in a plane where the ears get numb. Sony noise cancelling headphones. The w series

  2. so why my ears are slightly hurting like the air pressure when riding on a plane, every time when im using my earpods?

  3. This still doesn’t explain how you physically can not hear. Does it play the frequency in your ears? Like how does the mat hing frequency stop

  4. I’m using my Sony WH-CH720N wireless headphones. They’re noise cancelling abilities are really good. This video was interesting, as I did wonder how the NC feature works exactly. πŸ‘

  5. its crazy when certain sounds make it through it messes with the way my brain reads the room if only someone tapped into the kind of tech and brain manipulation you would be unstoppable…….. dot dot dot
    hard dot ….

  6. I don’t know why I misheard from my AirPods saying it’s hose, isn’t it Bose! Amar Bose πŸ˜…

  7. I always thought they just have really good ear muffs, i never knew it was a type of sound that plays

  8. This guy named Rowan told me that noise cancelling on can make people not hear the things you say

  9. The problem also is: the headphone has to listen first and then can create the opposite soundwave , so you always have some latency, hence it’s impossible to get a 0 volume of noise

  10. I would only wear noise canceling headphones in the comfort of my home, I think it’s a bad idea to wear them in public.

  11. I freaked out a little when I first put my noise cancelling earbuds on. When I put the first one in I could still hear everything. When I put the second one in everything went quiet and I thought my fish aquariums stopped working because my air bubblers and pumps were dead silent. Took the earbuds out and was like oh wow 😲 I really like them

  12. I just had a question I needed answered and I got WAY more than I wanted…long story short I skipped the video and will be going to chat gpt

  13. I have horrible neightbors who constantly listen to loud music, good luck calling the police here in Mexico to tell them to keep quiet! So I’m guessing noise cancelling headphones are the best way to go, I wonder if they would help at all

  14. It’s pretty damn incredible that the headphones can determine the soundwaves that it precisely needs to cancel out and then create the canceling waves in real-time …. amazing this isn’t just science fiction.

  15. just do what sony has forgot to do. make an airtight seal around your ear and earbuds. not rocket science
