Like most of the people, you’ve probably asked yourself: why do tournament organizers sometimes stuff professional players into glass boxes at big tournaments?
Well, aside from looking quite awesome, they were actually designed for one specific purpose: to eliminate sound coming from the crowd giving the players on stage an edge.
Now, do it actually work as intended? Do they really block out all the noise or do they just muffle things? And with noise cancelling technology becoming more and more advanced, is the answer to this problem maybe just a decent pair of headphones?
