2. Active noise control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_noise_control

   Active noise control ( ANC ), also known as noise cancellation ( NC ), or active noise reduction ( ANR ), is a method for reducing unwanted sound by the addition of a second sound specifically designed to cancel the first. The concept was first developed in the late 1930s; later developmental work that began in the 1950s eventually resulted in ...

3. Noise-canceling microphone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise-canceling_microphone

   Another technique uses two or more microphones and active or passive circuitry to reduce the noise. The primary microphone is closer to the desired source (like a person's mouth). A second mic receives ambient noise. In a noisy environment, both microphones receive noise at a similar level, but the primary mic receives the desired sounds more ...

   Noise -cancelling headphones alongside a carry case. Noise-cancelling headphones are headphones which suppress unwanted ambient sounds using active noise control. This is distinct from passive headphones which, if they reduce ambient sounds at all, use techniques such as soundproofing . Noise cancellation makes it possible to listen to audio ...
