Aliph’s Jawbone integrates bluetooth and DARPA tech for a killer headset
The Aliph Jawbone has an appropriately striking name to go with the striking Yves Behar bluetooth headset design. The Jawbone is the first adaptive Bluetooth headset with military-grade noise-canceling Noise Shield technology, in an effort to virtually eliminate background noise. The headset continuously adapts to users’ changing environments (500 times per second to be exact), originally developed by Aliph for DARPA (The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) to enhance communications hostile and rugged environments (like NYC streets on the way to work).
The Jawbone is able to determine precisely when you are speaking and separates your speech from other sounds nearby and then subtracts external environmental sounds from your speech signal. The headset comes in at 14 grams and can be worn on either ear. Earloops are included in four different sizes and shapes to ensure a customized fit and feel.
The Jawbone Bluetooth headset was awarded an CES Innovations Design and Engineering Award and an iF Product Design Award. The first version of Jawbone has been exhibited at both the New York Museum of Modern Art and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
Jawbone is currently available exclusively at select Cingular Wireless retail stores nationwide for $119.99 and is compatible with all Bluetooth handsets.
