here this idea a bluetooth headphone headset hybrid that purposely doesn't block out sound because sometimes you need to be aware of your surroundings while you're listening that's the driving force behind this new sony xperia ear concept design instead of completely plugging your ear canal like regular pair of earbuds will or like a Bluetooth headset this one will remain open enough for you to hear both your audio and your environment that would be useful when you're talking to other people or maybe riding a bike in traffic in fact you could think of the concept gadget as a sort of head display meets personal assistant based on current Xperia air technology this concept would be able to take calls lightly hear incoming notifications from your phone read out calendar items and navigate directions translation text messaging readouts calendar appointments and music playback would also be onboard this open form Xperia air gadget would fit onto your ear from below remember this is a rigid non functioning prototype were looking at but we expect the real deal to be made of a flexible rubberized polymer to adjust to different ear shapes and work around earrings Sony is confident that it'll make the product but it's anyone's guess when we'll see it
