Won’t someone think of the poor working class furries? A fur suit can already cost 10 or 20 grand. Now they’re going to have to add cyborg body parts to the mix as well? Talk about gentrification!
wait what. i made one for 200 bucks that the theater program i made it for is still using 30 years later (i build shit to last). you mean i could make money doing that?
I’m not in that community myself, but from what I hear a high quality for suit can cost $10-20k. Not sure what differences in construction may exist between those and what you made. But some artists definitely make decent livings making them.
I’m not part of that community, but I’ve built props for advertisements and museum installations; durability and reliability are where most of the money is, especially in low volume products.
Wait, I … could make human-cat hears that actually have microphones in them and that turn towards the gaze and they could actually ear out of them if they’re wearing linked earphones … could even do some psychoacoustic filtering to give some kind of “superearing” ability …
Then some cunt like Elon is going to just steal my idea… meh. … eff it
Use a combination of different size microphones diaphragms and not just MEMS devices,
Use the earshape parabolic concentration points for finding the optimal location and orientation of diaphragms
include ultrasonic transceivers for out of band perception (also echolocation, room mapping, darksight)
also to allow covert/out of band ultrasound communication with other catgirls that normies cannot hear (that means connecting transceivers AS transceivers, with US band amplifier for transmission)
Using servogalvos to modify ear shape for acoustic focusing, if ear direction is using a gear drive, use double helical gear and a low acoustic profile dampening coating on the gears (acoustic anti-reflection) because we are making a listening device and we don’t want to listen to gear noises ! Consider ultrasonic motors instead of geared drive.
Software wise, using direct wifi and ble for communication (DECT sucks, proprietary standard sucks) this should work with a raspberry pi and only open source software out of the box, no drivers needed, yes that means multichannel transmission and do all the processing off device
actual software, we’re using the various microphones as an asynchronous, heterogenous phased array, unlike regular phased arrays which have many identifical receivers along a straight plane here we are going to skip a couple technological steps and use “receiver diversity” in the phased array design, so not only are the receivers in different places NOT on a plane, they are also receivers with different acoustic profiles (different sensibility of different frequencies) and anisotropic (due to ear “lens-shape”) reception patterns, so all of that diversity has to be correlated between all receivers to create an acoustic map of the world, so that we can decide also what sounds are psychoacoustically relevant and point the ears in that direction, listen if the received signal is actually signal or noise and then send that to the user, in realtime (max processing time is 20ms top end)
make sure ear shape flexibility is enough to receive and focus some signal backwards… there’s still a few things to consider but I think that’s mostly it, for the earbud, use close loop ear canal acoustic feedback for the amplifier drive, use only open standards and open firmware in all devices. System to use myoelectic ear movement as control input feedback, at least with these two modes, ear movement to manual steering of the acoustic phased array, and the other ear movement to select auditory focus of signal sources (that is, automatic switching between detected relevant auditory sources). Add RED+IR laser pointer to the ears that can be used as a pointed, to indicate (covertly for IR) which auditory source is currently select and in what direction this signal currently use (ensure positional live tracking is reflected in beam direction). Use sub-vocal command interface for higher function control of the listening device. Provide standardized pattern and calibration equipment definition for microphone correlation calibration, use only open hardware assemblages. Include live transcription to text of all received text, ensure at least capacity for 12 simultaneous audio to text transcription channel, include live audio MP3QR decoding and all other digital audio transmission standard live decoding and transcription as part of the transcription channel capability. Include text summary ability, include voice signature automatic identification and tagging of decoded text stream, at least 4 terabyte storage space, maximum head weight 150 gram excluding battery, battery system must have 1 minute with no battery operation time or dual battery swapping system. include hardware audio encoder and decoder supporting all current ffmpeg codecs. Include acoustic counter battery targetting receiver system. Oh almost forgot, dual laser system mounted with microprism(for aimed laser microphone ability, to listen sounds through walls or from vibrating surfaces)

Cybernetic Auditory Telemetry & Echolocation with Anisotropic Reception
Engineering Requirements Draft — v1.0
📑 Document Overview
This document outlines the full set of engineering requirements for the CAT&EAR system, a wearable, cybernetic auditory perception platform. CAT&EAR is a heterogeneous, phased-array auditory sensor suite that uses biomimetic design, ultrasonic telemetry, laser vibrometry, and advanced audio signal processing to enable real-time environmental awareness and communication.
The system is designed to operate autonomously, using only open standards and open-source software, while supporting embedded AI-driven perceptual functions. This document reflects both functional and non-functional requirements for CAT&EAR across all relevant subsystems.
The CAT&EAR system (Cybernetic Auditory Telemetry & Echolocation with Anisotropic Reception) is a next-generation, wearable auditory intelligence platform designed for advanced signal perception, real-time environmental awareness, and covert communication. It leverages a biomimetic ear design combined with a heterogeneous microphone array—featuring diverse diaphragms and directional acoustic profiles—to form an asynchronous, non-planar phased array. This allows it to isolate, enhance, and track psychoacoustically relevant audio sources with high spatial precision, even in noisy or cluttered environments. Real-time beamforming, signal classification, and source switching are handled off-device via open-source DSP pipelines, ensuring low latency (≤20 ms) and full operational transparency.
In addition to traditional sound acquisition, CAT&EAR incorporates ultrasonic echolocation and laser vibrometry, enabling through-wall audio surveillance and remote surface vibration analysis using IR/RED laser beams with microprism-guided targeting. The system includes a covert ultrasonic communication channel, allowing encrypted, inaudible data exchange between units—ideal for non-verbal team coordination. Myoelectric sensors and sub-vocal command inputs provide silent, intuitive control interfaces for users, allowing manual beam steering or hands-free selection of tracked sound sources. Ear motion actuators and a visible/infrared laser pointer visually indicate attention direction, enhancing situational awareness without audible cues.
Field usage scenarios include reconnaissance, electronic surveillance, remote eavesdropping, low-visibility communication, and audio-based environmental mapping in both urban and wilderness environments. The system is optimized for silent operation, rapid deployment, and open hardware integration. All processing occurs locally or on an open compute platform (e.g., Raspberry Pi), with no reliance on proprietary software or cloud infrastructure. With up to 12-channel live transcription, digital audio decoding, 4TB onboard storage, and support for all major codecs, CAT&EAR serves both tactical intelligence roles and high-end experimental research in audio-based perception systems.

Don’t hide it Japan, you’re just doing this to make cat girls
Why stop there? I want my dog and fox and wolf girls too
How about horse girls?
Nothing comes between a horse girl and her daddy’s money.
Beware the horse barrel racing girl.
Beware the chuck wagon racing girl!
Luckily you can already get those at your local stable AND with a bit of leather at your local bdsm club!
Won’t someone think of the poor working class furries? A fur suit can already cost 10 or 20 grand. Now they’re going to have to add cyborg body parts to the mix as well? Talk about gentrification!
Gerontofication, in this case.

I can believe it for the head. I had to build a horse head the next year and it was hard as fuck.
Also these ears will help to uh, absorb the echoes and extra noise of the world around you. Yeah.

They need to increase their birthrate somehow.
