Elemik has created the world's first one-handed headset. A few years ago, French designer Florent needed to use noise-canceling headphones and found it inconvenient when he had to put down his items to free up both hands. He began dreaming of a headset that could be put on with just one hand.
Florent quickly began drawing headbands with an inside cable that could easily be deployed when pulled. He later printed a prototype that, to his surprise, actually worked. To use Elemik's best feature, you simply press a button to create tension on the headband cable, which spreads the headband allowing it to be put on or removed with only one hand.
These innovative headphones come with a high-quality removable mic, custom RGB LEDs and a control box. They are available for purchase on Kickstarter.
