1. A method for communicating with a virtual reality system, comprising:
- determining a position and an orientation of a head of a user utilizing one or more inertial sensors of a first wireless earpiece and one or more inertial sensors of a second wireless earpiece, each of the first wireless earpiece and the second wireless earpiece are configured to be inserted into an ears of the user, wherein the first wireless earpiece and the second wireless earpiece are configured to wirelessly communicate with one another and at least one of the first wireless earpiece and the second wireless earpiece are configured to process inertial data from the inertial sensors of the first wireless earpiece and the second wireless earpiece to determine the position and or direction of the head of the user;
communicating the position and the orientation of the head of the user to the virtual reality system;
receiving audio content from the virtual reality headset;
receiving voice input from a plurality of microphones of the first wireless earpiece and or the second wireless earpiece, wherein the plurality of microphones includes at least one bone conduction microphone;
communicating the voice input from the first wireless earpiece and or the second wireless earpiece to the virtual reality system;
enhancing the audio content utilizing the position and the orientation of the head of the user;
generating a response to the voice input by the virtual reality system using the voice input and the position and the orientation of the head of the user, the response comprising the audio content; and
delivering the audio content to the user through one or more speakers of the at least one wireless earpiece.

Abstract
A system, method, and wireless earpieces for communicating with a virtual reality headset. A position and an orientation of a head of a user are detected utilizing at least wireless earpieces. Audio content is received. The audio content is enhanced utilizing the position and the orientation of the head of the user. The audio content is immediately delivered to the user. The method may further include communicating the position and the orientation of the head of the user to the virtual reality headset. The audio content may be based on the orientation and position of the head of the user.
