Abstract
A method and system for a headset with internal gimbal, where the headset comprises a headband, a headband, and ear cups coupled to the headband, wherein each ear cup may be coupled to the headband utilizing an internal gimbal. The internal gimbal may comprise a tip that is wider than its base. The tip may be rounded. The headband may comprise headband endcaps at each end of the headband. A headband slide may be coupled to each headband endcap. The headband ear cups may be coupled to the headband via the headband slides. Each headband slide may be coupled to a headband endcap via a headband pivot. The headband pivot may provide rotational motion of the ear cups with respect to the headband. The force on ears of a user of the headset may be spread evenly by the internal gimbals.
