When we put headphones on our ears, we usually turn off the outside world, but with the revolutionary Batband headphones, it's a completely different song. First of all, we don't put them in or over our ears, but we wear the device on our head like Gaius Julius Caesar's laurel wreath, and secondly, we don't listen with our ears, but through vibrations on the skull bone. They use "bone conduction" technology, which allows listening to music and sounds from the environment at the same time.
Revolutionary "earless" headphones Batband the sound is not delivered to our brain through his natural airways and so it does not travel through the ear canal to the eardrums, through the ossicles to the perilymph in the cochlea, where it is transformed into an electrical signal and continues along the auditory nerve all the way to the brain, but takes a shortcut. Batbands work on the basis of bone conduction, which sends sound vibrations along the skull bone (this type of technology is found in implants for deaf or hard of hearing people) and s stimulation of the inner ear completely bypasses the outer and middle ear.
An extremely elegant piece of technology at the same time allows you to listen to "private" sounds (because it acts directly on the inner ear) as well as "public" sounds, that is sounds from the surroundings (by acting directly on the inner ear, the outer "social" ear has a free hand). In this way we hear twice as much as usual, without the listening quality and comfort suffering as a result (check how this is possible in the video clip below).

They are located in the Batband headphones three conductors of sound waves. Two on the side of the head (shadow bone) and one on the back of the head (occipital bone). The headphones are extremely discreet (which cannot be said for many headphones and earphones), which means that the "content" being played is for the outside world practically inaudible. Headphones that connect to your smartphone via a wireless connection Bluetooth, were produced at Studio Banana Things, and you can reserve them on Kickstarter for (calculated) 110 euros.
