Researchers have created a headphone prototype that allows listeners to hear people speaking within a bubble with a programmable radius of 3 to 6 feet. Voices and sounds outside the bubble are quieted ...

SEATTLE, December 3, 2021 -- As the world's temperatures rise, tidewater glaciers are receding and melting, releasing air trapped in the ice. Scientists can listen to the release of the air and ...

In a restaurant or at a party, background noise can make it hard to hear people talking, even up close. But soon we could be wearing headphones that use AI to filter out noise that’s more than a few ...

In a noisy environment, such as at work or when travelling, many people resort to wearing noise cancelling headphones to reduce the level of background noise and to achieve a level of concentration or ...

Save your breath: A new way to make bubbles requires only sound waves. Scientists made the bubbles in levitated drops of liquid, held aloft with sound waves. Tweaking the sound waves caused the ...

Burst a soap bubble and it will split into hundreds of droplets. Now we can do the reverse, turning droplets into bubbles, with a blast of sound. Researchers have already shown it is possible to ...

A team led by researchers at the University of Washington has created a headphone prototype that allows listeners to create a “sound bubble.” The team’s artificial intelligence algorithms combined ...
