Skullcandy, Bragi Design SoC for Sub-$100 True Wireless Earbuds

Skullcandy teamed with true wireless headphone IP company Bragi to create hands-free audio products based on Bragi’s AI-based software platform, the companies said Tuesday. The jointly developed SoC for the Skullcandy-branded platform was designed with updatable firmware so earbuds will be able to receive over-the-air updates as new features are released, they said. With a voice command, users will be able to start and control their media player, even without internet connectivity, and accept or reject calls, they said. Skullcandy is targeting the $100-and-below segment.
