Parrot ZIK
----------
The world's most advanced wireless headphones
---------------------------------------------
Listening to music and being insulated from external noise are
features that more and more users are looking for.
Parrot has designed the perfect solution to address these
desires, introducing wireless headphones that act as an extension
of your .
ZIK, the Generation Headset
--------------------------------------
Sensitive touch panel & head detection sensor
-------------------------------------------------
Like your , ZIK has integrated a sensitive touch panel,
giving hyper-intuitive access to the various features available.
Sliding your finger vertically on the touch-sensitive control
panel adjusts the volume of your music or the caller's voice, and
moving your finger horizontally plays the next track or returns
to the previous one. ZIK also has a unique head detection sensor:
simply remove your headphones to put your music on hold. The
Bluetooth connection is then automatically reconfigured so that
your operates independently again.
Optimum listening comfort while on the phone
--------------------------------------------
For optimum listening comfort while on the phone, ZIK is equipped
with two technologies for pinpointing the sound of your voice.
Combined with the use of a double microphone, the detection
sensor detects and analyses the vibrations of the jaw in order to
detect only your words and remove any background noise.
Recreating the Musical Image
----------------------------
For a brand-new listening experience, Parrot has paid special
attention to the audio output from ZIK. The headphone provides
you with powerful DSP (Digital Sound Processor) algorithms which
reconstructs the sound, giving you the impression that the music
is coming from in front of you; this is the "Parrot Concert Hall"
effect.
To configure the "Parrot Concert Hall" effect, just download the
free Parrot Audio Suite app for iOS or Android.
Lastly, to insulate you from external noise, Parrot has developed
an ultra-high performance active noise cancellation system which
eliminates up to 98% of ambient noise. While traditional ANC
audio headphones only use two microphones to analyse ambient
noises, ZIK has 4 microphones located inside and outside each
earpiece offering the user complete clarity whilst listening.
