Bone conduction technology has been coming to prominence for several years as brands have begun to implement it into headphones and helmets, so the new 'ORII' smartphone ring comes as the next logical step. Looking like an oversized piece of jewelry, the 'ORII' ring works by utilizing Bluetooth connectivity along with bone conduction technology in order to connect users more discreetly to their device.
The 'ORII' smartphone ring will vibrate and flash when a call is coming through, which can be answered by simply applying the tip of the finger that the ring is on to your ear. This will transmit the sound to your ear canal without blocking the ambient noise in order to let you discreetly and quickly take calls.
