Dehumidifing Ear Care Devices

DearBuds Circulates 10L of Air to Dehumidify Ears for More Comfort

— January 6, 2022 — Tech
Every year, the Consumer Electronics Show offers a look at some of the newest and most interesting earbuds that are coming to market and this year, DearBuds stand out. DearBuds look like traditional wireless earbuds but they stand out as "ear care devices" that actually dehumidify ears using earbuds. Wearing earbuds for an extended period of time can be an uncomfortable experience and DearBuds were created to keep the ears clear of itchiness, which may occur as a result of accumulated bacteria and fungus. This ear care device is designed to monitor temperature and moisture levels inside ears and adjust the humidity levels for more comfort.

DearBuds, shown at CES 2022, were created by Linkface, a company that came out of Samsung's C-Lab start-up accelerator program.

3. Smart Earbuds - The integration of sensors and smart capabilities, like those found in DearBuds, is paving the way for the future of earbuds as multi-purpose devices with health and wellness benefits.
