Designing the ultimate wearable voice platform for the early days of smart headphones.
Long before ambient passthrough was a feature on all headphones, OV came to us with completely new concept around controlling what you hear from the world around you. A dynamic noise cancellation approach that wasn’t just on or off, but could be contextual and aware of the world around you. And everything could be modulated on-device without having to reach for your phone.
I co-lead the product architecture and ID efforts, as well as defining all interactions and on-product experience.
