Zensbuds ZB-01

Zensbuds ZB-01 are smart wireless earbuds designed with a minimalistic aesthetic and integrated AI features to support modern international communication needs. The earbuds enable real-time translation during phone calls across multiple languages, allowing users to speak naturally in their native tongue while the system translates and plays responses in the other person's language. Each call can also be recorded, transcribed into text, and summarised. These features are accessed through a companion app. Zensbuds are equipped with Bluetooth 6.0, noise cancellation, and spatial audio. Visually, they reflect minimalistic design values by being compact and discreet while remaining comfortable for extended use. On the technical side, a custom chipset structure facilitates bi-literal signal streaming between any device connected to the earbuds using the companion app, opening new possibilities for processing call audio signals. Through the app, real-time translation and transcription are achieved via speech-to-text mechanisms and translation modules.
