Glowing Led Earbuds

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The BRS Earbuds Transmit Crystal Clear Sound via Bone Conduction

— October 6, 2011 — Tech
If you are curious as to what the future of the headphone will be, then you are going to want to check out the BRS Earbuds. The BRS Earbuds (Bone Radio System) use bone conduction to transmit high quality sound to your ears no matter where you are or what you're listening to.

The BRS Earbuds wrap around the ear and transmit sound through the small bones in the ear. The device has only two buttons: an on/off switch and a switch that controls the LED lamp.

It may be a little too early to tell, but it looks like bone conduction (transmitting sound through the bones of the ear) is going to be heavily incorporated into the headphones and earbuds of the future. Bone conduction is said to give a clearer sound and to prevent hearing damage associated with jamming high-powered earbuds deep into the ear canal. Don't be surprised if you see a pair of BRS Earbuds by Dre hit store shelves in the near future.
Trend Themes
1. Bone Conduction Headphones - The rise of bone conduction technology in headphones and earbuds opens up opportunities for clearer sound and reduced hearing damage.
2. Led-enabled Earbuds - LED lamp controls integrated into earbuds offer a visually striking and customizable audio experience.
3. Simplified Earbud Design - The emergence of earbuds with minimalistic buttons and controls demonstrates the potential for user-friendly and intuitive audio devices.
Industry Implications
1. Audio Technology - The audio technology industry can leverage bone conduction and LED integration to develop innovative headphone and earbud solutions.
2. Consumer Electronics - The consumer electronics sector has the opportunity to create new LED-enabled earbud products that combine style with superior sound quality.
3. Healthcare and Wellness - The healthcare and wellness industry can explore bone conduction technology as a safer alternative for individuals who frequently use headphones or earbuds.
