IEC 63296-2:2023 is applicable to active acoustic noise-cancelling headphones and earphones that have the function of reducing the ambient noise heard by the user by the level of the output sound from the transducer, which is generated by the ambient noise detection microphone and the noise reduction signal processing circuit.
This document covers headphones and earphones to be worn over-the-ear or in-ear, all of which are referred to as "headphones" in this document.
This document specifies the terms and definitions relating to battery duration of this type of headphones and the measurement and evaluation methods.
The noise-detection microphones are mounted in the body, on the surface, or on an accessory of the headphones. Signal-processing circuits are analogue and digital electronic circuits.
This document does not deal with equipment intended for hearing protection. It is also not applicable to music players, recorders, etc. that have a noise-cancelling function.

IEC TR 63449:2023 presents a study of the impact of high dynamic range (HDR) technologies with "dynamic metadata" on TV luminance and power consumption. It compares the power consumption of content with dynamic metadata to the same content without dynamic metadata. Non-dynamic "static metadata" HDR technologies such as HDR10 and non-metadata HDR such as HLG, were previously studied in IEC TR 63274:2021.
This document also reviews the current HDR TV market and analyses existing HDR TV power measurement methods and considerations for any changes to those power measurement standards.
While this document studies the results of content that include Dolby Vision® and HDR10+ dynamic metadata, any comparison of these two technologies is outside of the scope of this document.

ISO 20294:2018 This document specifies the requirements for quantifying the carbon footprint of those processes, materials and technologies within the user's knowledge and control that are necessary for the delivery and use of e-media. It covers requirements to account for e-media archiving, distribution, use and storage. It is based on a life cycle assessment (LCA) approach, using defined system boundaries and a specified functional unit as the basis for complete or partial carbon footprinting studies. These data can be referenced throughout supply chains for individual e-media products.
This document is applicable to a carbon footprint of a product (CFP) study of e-media regarding contents and e-media devices.
This document provides a framework for carbon calculators that organisations can follow and that can be used as the structure for market- or sector-specific carbon footprinting tools. Studies and tools constructed within this framework methodology provide carbon footprint quantifications of e-media that can be validated, verified and provide reference for future studies.
This document does not assess any social or economic aspects or impacts, or any other environmental aspects and related impacts potentially arising from the life cycle of a product.
