Underwater MP3 Player Uses Bone
A final year design student at Brunel University (UK) has created an underwater MP3 player. The underwater music machine, dubbed 'Soundwaves' has won inventor Sam Jones an AOL Broadband Innovator Award. Soundwaves uses 'bone conduction' technology, which when placed on both temples allows sound to be heard inside the users' head in all conditions, including when fully immersed in water. Vibrations from the MP3 device are passed safely through the skull to the inner ear, bypassing the outer ear.
