Noise cancellation is a technology that reduces unwanted ambient sounds using active noise control, which involves generating sound waves that are the exact opposite (anti-phase) of the unwanted noise. This technology is widely used in headphones and audio devices to enhance the listening experience by providing a quieter environment.
