You want an Idea, here is one for you.
You remember the Reebok pump shoes from the early 90s?
You could design a attachable tip/membrane that have more of less the avg human concha and entry canal form with various chamber. now you just need a little pump aka the Reebok pump miniaturized... pump it and it will conform to your earshape creating a good seal...It's just an idea...nice concept
Thing to take into consideration is if you want it as a universal tip. the pump location have to be taken into account...
another thing is in order for the membrane to stay in place the membrane must have various chamber at least 3 in different direction...2 in the concha and one in the ear canal.
Another possibility if you don't want to go the pump route is to replace the inner material membrane with expending gel/silicone that expend in contact with heat (body heat). the chamber design must be kept though...
I have other ideas under my sleeve...but I doubt anyone really care because at least 90% find a good fit with the current tip solution...
