A method for providing elected sounds to a user of a mobile device, who is isolated from sounds of the environment, to increase his awareness regarding entities or events in his vicinity. The user wears sound isolating headphones, which are connected to his mobile device and isolate him from sounds of the environment. A mobile application is installed on the mobile device, and is automatically activated when the headphones are connected to his mobile device. The mobile application is adapted to automatically activate the microphone of the mobile device, when the isolating headphones are plugged into the mobile device and periodically compare in real-time, sounds received from the environment, to a predefined collection of reference sounds. Sounds of the environment, which match one or more reference sounds from the collection are selectively filtered out and as long as the sounds received from the environment match the one or more reference sounds from the collection, the filtered sounds are continuously passed to the isolating headphones. |
