Shokz and
Open-Ear technology
At Shokz we have always been committed to exploring acoustic technology innovation with the aim of bringing open-ear listening experiences to more people. Starting in 2011, we applied for our first patent on Open-Ear technology. As of April 7, 2023, we had applied for 2,800+ patents worldwide, of which 950+ were granted. Unlike traditional earbuds, which sit in your ear canal and block out external sounds, Open-Ear earbuds use bone conduction or DirectPitch™ technology to transmit sound to your ears without obstructing them. This allows you to stay aware of your surroundings while still enjoying your favorite tunes.
