Less than 40% of music is now listener owned, with streaming services increasingly dominating the market. Existing earphone solutions always require a paired device to be in range if the listener wants to take advantage of the benefits of streamed music and this can be very restrictive in many circumstances, from a device security and safety perspective, and in terms of convenience. Strax intends to fill this gap in the market with a Strax-branded proprietary solution. It will provide an in-ear earphone technology with in-built access to high-quality streamed content, even when not in range with a paired device. This capability will be enabled via technological advances, and licenced-enabled access to content and user-define playlists. The product will be the first to market with offline streaming capabilities contained within discrete and fully wireless earbuds, and alongside Active Noise Cancelling, it will incorporate a novel proprietary noise reduction capability currently in development at Strax.In the 9-month STREAM-TWS project the partners will develop the technology to pre-production prototype stage, with features and functionality validated through engagement with consumer panels in the USA and UK. Loughborough University's centre for Sustainable Manufacturing and Recycling Technologies will be engaged under sub-contract to evaluate the environmental impact of the product from 'cradle to grave', and to provide insight for consideration in specification, design, manufacture and supply.

现在，只有不到 40% 的音乐属于听众所有，流媒体服务日益主导市场。如果听众想要利用流媒体音乐的优势，现有的耳机解决方案总是要求配对设备处于有效范围内，而从设备安全性和便利性的角度来看，这在许多情况下可能会受到很大的限制。 Strax 打算通过 Strax 品牌的专有解决方案来填补这一市场空白。它将提供入耳式耳机技术，即使不在配对设备的范围内，也可以内置访问高质量的流媒体内容。此功能将通过技术进步以及对内容和用户定义播放列表的许可访问来实现。该产品将是首款上市的分立式全无线耳塞中包含离线流媒体功能的产品，除了主动降噪功能外，还将采用 Strax 目前正在开发的新颖的专有降噪功能。 在为期 9 个月的 STREAM-TWS 项目中合作伙伴将将该技术开发到预生产原型阶段，并通过与美国和英国消费者小组的接触来验证特性和功能。拉夫堡大学可持续制造和回收技术中心将根据分包合同评估产品从“摇篮到坟墓”对环境的影响，并为规范、设计、制造和供应方面的考虑提供见解。
