HyperX YINYANG I

Inspiration

Each year, the IT peripherals industry generates just about 200 billion USD in revenue. Yet, with the hundreds of models and different kinds of headsets available to be bought, there is little innovation that differentiates one headset from another. That is precisely why the HyperX YINYANG I model was created- to bring something new, and to ultimately revolutionize how gamers and average joes come to use headphones.

The model is made to focus on ergonomics and practicality. In conducting research and looking at the current standards of hundreds of headphones, the YINYANG I model takes all the industry's best features- and adds to it. Specifically, not only is this headset noise cancelling, has wired/wireless options, industry-standard compatibility a well-designed microphone/padding, but it NOW introduces: heating/cooling settings within the headphones, fidget buttons on the headset and adjustable noise cancelling levels.

How we built it

The designing and pitching were all done through Canva and Wix.

Challenges we ran into

I had initially wanted to try Blendr in order to create a 3D model. However, (and truthfully) I significantly underestimated how much time it would take to familiarize myself with the software. In the end, I decided to prioritize the expansion of the actual features, as opposed to the model.

What's next for HyperX YINYANG I

There is a reason why it's the first edition! We have so much more planned for this model- in the next release you can expect a lighter model and more features centered around the product ergonomics.
