Apple has a new patent for us folks. The Cupertino-based company has been thinking about a system that would automatically adjust the volume of your iPhone or Mac depending on the ambient noise.

You will be able to control the parameters of that volume control and the application will suggest the use of headphones if the current ambiance is too loud for you. We’re not sure when and if this technology will be included but it would certainly be cool to have the volume of your music and your ringtones adjusted depending on your surroundings. What do you think?
