We have seen a number of new devices featuring the Amazon Alexa virtual assistant built in and now Onvocal have announced the launch of some headphones which feature Alexa, the Onvocal OV.
The Onvocal OV headphones will cost $399 and they will go on sale in January and the company is now taking pre-orders on the device.
“We’re excited to work with ONVOCAL to bring Alexa to the all-new OV headphones — the first headphones available with the Alexa voice service built in,” said Aaron Brown, Director, Amazon Voice Services. “Now customers can use their OV headphones to access over 5,000 Alexa skills such as Lyft, Domino’s, and 7 Minute Workout. Plus, if they’re on the go, they can use Alexa to quickly check for nearby movie show times, manage their shopping lists, control their smart home and much more — all just by using their voice. We can’t wait for our customers to try this out.”
OV’s patented and patent pending innovations include a unique and useful suite of intelligent Sound Controls. OV is the only headphone to offer Ambient, Voice and Chat sound controls so you can boost, block, mix and customize exactly what you hear. The Ambient control allows you to hear what’s happening around you in true binaural 3D sound. The Voice control allows you to hear your own voice in real time for better calls, voice commands and even for singing along to your favorite tunes. A double-tap of the Chat button automatically dips music volume and turns on Ambient and Voice, which means you don’t need to remove earbuds to have a face-to-face conversation with the fight attendant, barista, friend or colleague.
