This picture shows Batman missing an ear from his costume.
Which made me think, what does he keep inside his ears?
- Radio receiver to listen to police broadcasts?
- Radio connection back to Batmobile or to the Batcave?
- Super-sensitive sound sensors?
- Hidden weapons?
- Tiny little cameras?

It depends on the continuity, but it's typically a set of directional microphones and high-gain antennas to give him better-than-human hearing abilities. Because he's a bat, see?
The prop from Dawn of Justice contains similar technology, according to the DoJ: Tech Manual, describing the cowl as containing a
titanium core and a range of infrared and sonic comms
In All Star Batman #2, we see that Batman's new cowl has ears that contain a little surprise, functioning as the handles of a pair of concealed knives
And in Batman and Robin #22, the ears can be ejected and work as thrown knives.
