The shift towards wireless solutions puts a focus on convenience but is somewhat restricted by available battery power, so the conceptual 'Unbound' headphones identify what can be done to fix this.
Designed by Kyu Lee, the headphones work like traditional wireless earbuds until the battery begins to run low at which point the accompanying battery cable can be added to offer an additional five hours of playback. The accompanying Powercase will offer 12 more hours of power to ensure you can listen across several days before needing to recharge the various components.
The conceptual 'Unbound' headphones system identifies the needs of modern consumers and takes an upstream approach to the problem of low battery power to keep devices operating.
