Not many seem aware that sound travels not only via vibrations of air particles but also with the help of bone conduction. This is the reason why our own voice sounds louder to us than it does to others. The knowledge might make you wonder why most headphones don’t use the technology to help us listen to our favourite tunes through bone conduction. That might be a bit hard to explain, but GameChanger has announced their new Audio Bone 1.0 headphones that deliver sound with the help of your bones.

The Audio Bone headphones is a snazzy looking piece that walks off the traditional path of in-ears sound deliverance to use a much better method. These headphones are supposedly much more comfortable, probably owing to the fact that� they won’t irritate your ears. What is more sensational about the Audio Bone headphone is that this can be used by people with hearing deficits because a healthy eardrum is not a necessity to listen to sound on this piece. Awesome, or what? The waterproof Audio Bone 1.0 headphones are available for $150 in blue, black and yellow. This product is definitely worth the price.
