Imagine being able to block out the sound of the entire world. Or at least the bits of it that annoy you, distract you or that you could simply just live without. Sounds like paradise, right? Here One may be the solution – wireless earbuds that are smart enough not only to stream your music and let you take calls but also remove a lot of the background noise in everyday life. The product connects to an app that will allow you to amplify speech or eliminate certain frequencies, such as a baby crying or your neighbour's annoying music. And you can allow certain noise to filter through if you want. You can also access Siri or Google Now through Hear One. Of course it means you'll have to wear the ear buds 12 hours a day, but imagine the peace you'd get in return.
