ZIK Parrot - Do Want!

French über designer Philippe Starck has just revealed the Zik headphones that he created for Parrot. Crammed with modern technology, the ‘phones are optimized for intuitive control and seamless integration with smartphones.


The Zik headphones include a capacitive touch panel that’s controlled by intuitive gestures. Swiping up will increase the volume, down will decrease it. Swiping forward and backward will navigate through your tunes. These headphones also feature active noise control, and a bone conduction sensor detects jaw movement, so the set is able to optimize sounds for clearer calls. The headphones will even deactivate Bluetooth and turn your music playback off within a second when you put them around your neck.

Pricing and a release date for the Zik headphones hasn’t yet been announced.
