Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses for earloops are described. In one example, an earloop for wearing on an ear of a user head is described. The earloop includes a capsule connector segment for coupling to a headset capsule, and an apex segment having an adaptive apex curvature arranged to rest on an apex of the ear. The earloop further includes a behind-the-ear segment having an adaptive behind-the-ear curvature arranged to curve behind the ear and exert a resilient gripping tension behind the ear, wherein the capsule connector segment is located along the x-axis at a different location than the behind-the-ear segment in both a static non-worn state and a static worn state, and wherein the apex segment is between the capsule connector segment and the behind-the-ear segment.
