THE SCIENCE BEHIND OUR TECHNOLOGY
|
At ZBONES, we know you have a choice when it comes to your headphones. So, why choose bone conduction headphones instead of other listening devices, like air conduction, over ear, or on ear headphones? Well, it’s simple. Choose safe sound. Unlike other types of headphones, bone conduction headphones allow you to listen to music, tune into a podcast or call a friend while still being able to hear your surroundings. So, with ZBONES, you can be aware of the people, vehicles, and bicycles around you, in addition to countless other elements in your environment. Plus, air conduction, over ear, and on ear headphones all channel sound waves through your ear drums. This form of listening is known to cause hearing fatigue and even damage, in addition to leaving you cut off from your surroundings. ZBONES open ear bone conduction headphones were specifically designed to combat these risks. Our state of the art technology is able to transduce, or convert, sound waves into vibrations. These vibrations bypass your eardrums, and instead, channel noise through your cheekbones. From here, the sound waves move to and are processed by your inner ear complex, or cochlea, and are picked up by the brain. By bypassing the eardrum, ZBONES allows you to listen to your music, podcast or phone call without compromising your ability to hear your surroundings - so, you don’t miss anything. |
