Active Noise Cancelling, as a feature of headphones. A piece of technology in headphones or other gadgets that generates anti-noise to nullify or cancel out ambient sounds (mostly monotonous sounds i.e. humming) or noise from the surrounding.
I'm taking my ANC headphones with me on the airplane, so I can take a nap without being disturbed by its engine noise.
