Wireless audio headset

Headset assemblies and systems for mobile application control and power savings are provided. Headset assembly includes headband with proximity sensor activation element and receiver assembly configured to be rotated with respect to the headband between a first position and a second position. Receiver assembly has memory, proximity sensor, processor communicatively coupled to memory and proximity sensor, microphone boom having first and second ends, and microphone located adjacent first end and speaker located adjacent second end. Processor comprises PIO port. Proximity sensor activation element is positioned to trigger proximity sensor to activate PIO port when receiver assembly is rotated to the second position and to deactivate PIO port when receiver assembly is rotated to first position. Proximity sensor is configured to transmit at least one signal representing receiver assembly position.

Communication headsets and systems for mobile application control and power savings

A headset worn by workers in retail stores and similar commercial settings is disclosed. The headset includes an ornamental bezel. The bezel may be attached to the headset body to provide distinguishing characteristics to the headset.

Customizable headset

A device has a communication link, a headset, and an electronics module. The headset is connected to the communication link and has a speaker, and a microphone. The electronics module is connected to the communication link and has a housing with an information conveying tag positioned on a surface, a processor communicatively coupled to the headset through the communication link, a battery, and a wireless transceiver communicatively coupled with a remote terminal.

Tag mounted distributed headset with electronics module

A power configurable headset system may include a communication device that can be removably secured with either a first headband having an auxiliary power supply or a second headband without a power supply. The first headband may include an arcuate band having a device support at its first end, and a power booster housing at its second end for supporting a power booster that is electrically connected to the device. The power booster may be used to supplement an integrated power supply of the communication device. In the second headband the power booster housing is replaced by a pad at the second end of the arcuate band for comfortably engaging the other side of a user's head.
