From 2023 (YouTube Edition): Advent of the Age of Safety Wearables The paramountcy of a pilot’s headset to the safety and enjoyment of flight cannot be overstated. It is the helm of his panoply, the instrument of his radiotelephony, and—thanks to the good people at Lightspeed—the ever-vigilant guardian by which his life is defended from demon carbon-monoxide. Since the introduction of its first product in 1996, Oswego, Oregon-based Lightspeed Aviation has evolved into one of the headset market’s premier innovators. In 2022, the company launched what it calls Safety Wearables—a forward-thinking amalgam comprising Lightspeed’s award-winning audio and Active Noise Reduction (ANR) systems with Kanari smart carbon-monoxide monitoring, detection, and warning technology.
