Abstract
A headset comprising a first earcup comprising a first capacitive sensor a second earcup comprising a second capacitive sensor, and a headband comprising a third capacitive sensor. A processor of the headset being configured to receive capacitive information from the first capacitive sensor, the second capacitive sensor, and the third capacitive sensor, to determine whether the first capacitive sensor, the second capacitive sensor, and the third capacitive sensor are capacitively coupled to a user wearing the headset based on the received capacitive information, and to set the headset to a first active mode, if the first capacitive sensor, the second capacitive sensor, and the third capacitive sensor are determined to be capacitively coupled to the user wearing the headset.

A headset comprising:
- a first earcup comprising a first support structure, a first cushion, and a first capacitive sensor configured for capacitively coupling to a user wearing the headset,
- a second earcup comprising a second support structure, a second cushion, and a second capacitive sensor configured for capacitively coupling to the user wearing the headset,
- a headband connecting the first earcup and the second earcup and comprising a third capacitive sensor configured for capacitively coupling to the user wearing the headset,
- a processor communicatively connected to the first capacitive sensor, the second capacitive sensor, and the third capacitive sensor, and configured to:
- receive capacitive information from the first capacitive sensor, the second capacitive sensor, and the third capacitive sensor,
- determine for each of the first capacitive sensor, the second capacitive sensor, and the third capacitive sensor whether the first capacitive sensor, the second capacitive sensor, and the third capacitive sensor are capacitively coupled to the user wearing the headset based on the received capacitive information, and
- if the first capacitive sensor, the second capacitive sensor, and the third capacitive sensor are determined to be capacitively coupled to the user wearing the headset, set the headset to a first active mode.
