The Uplink is a high-tech concept design that connects you to your music without the use of headphones or earbuds. The Uplink has four ultrasound speakers which, according to Design Blog, “resonates the air within your ears to create sound that only you can hear.”
The Uplink connects through your mobile phone and can allow you to listen to music, pick up phone calls, use a GPS tracker, or hear an emergency weather report.
The Uplink also has integrated solar panels so it won’t lose power during long runs, provided it's getting exposed to daylight.
