If the existing models of wireless earbuds not been able to satisfy your needs, Bose is ready to test a new design. These wireless Sport Open Earbuds won't fit into your ear canal. They sit above your ear canal and allow you to hear the music and still hear the sounds around you.



The design appears a bit unnatural compared to other headphones but Bose promises that they'll remain well-placed in all weather conditions, and provide loud, clear audio you can hear without blasting it to the rest of the world. I will need to hear reviews from experts in the field before I can fully believe in the product. But, it's worth looking into a headset that fits better.

The next-generation Tile tracker could make use of ultrawideband technology



AR might be used to identify it. We're still waiting for dedicated tracker tags from Apple and Samsung however, Tile is working to ensure it's staying competitive. TechCrunch reports that the company is working on a tracker that utilizes ultra-wideband (UWB) instead of Bluetooth to assist you in finding lost items. UWB offers a few advantages over Bluetooth: Its high-frequency waves can transmit spatial and directional information that make it more accurate in estimating the location of tags and devices.
