Parrot introduces a high end gesture based headphone controller on the Parrot ZIK, complete with active noise canceling technology. The unit removes 98% of the noise from the environment, using adaptive software and four separate microphones. Bluetooth connectivity is standard, both for listening to music and for coupling to the mobile phone. A bone conduction microphone allows coupling into the phone audio. 
The sound field is movable, allowing the creation of a concert hall experience with DSP. A six hour battery life is standard if all features are engaged. Up to 18 hours of music listening is possible if the other features are disabled.
