By: Hybra Advance Technology TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. - July 31, 2013 - PRLog -- Michigan-based technology development company, Hybra Advance Technology (Hybra), has today launched a Kickstarter crowd-funding campaign for its next-generation technology audio headset, Sound Band™. Sound Band™ uses surface sound rather than speakers and earbuds for audio delivery, allowing wearers to retain ambient noise awareness.
“We like to draw the analogy of Sound Band™ delivering a home-theater system experience. For example, you can still engage with others around you, hear the doorbell, baby monitor, and traffic, but at the same time be listening to - in stereo - your chosen audio,” Sound Band™, the company says, has applications beyond personal use, with its enhanced communication features suitable for language translation services, museum tours, private security, and theme parks, along with military and police communication. Sound Band™ Benefits: Medical Perspective Dr. Jonathan Fisher, Doctor of Cochlear Mechanics in the Laboratory of Sensory Neuroscience at The Rockefeller University, has been researching better and safer alternatives to the use of earbuds and headphones. He has said of Sound Band™: “When you listen to conventional headphones, particularly the earbud style, because the speaker is so close to your eardrum you actually run the risk of rupturing the eardrum when you’re listening to extremely loud sounds. “With Sound Band™, sound is conducted through the bone and the tissue in your head, and in the process your body organically shapes the quality of the sound. Because the sound waves bypass the eardrum, you eliminate the risk of doing any damage there.” More information on Sound Band™ and Dr Fisher's comments are in this YouTube video http://www.youtube.com/ Sound Band™ Kickstarter Goal Hybra’ There are 14 levels of pledges to choose from, starting with just $1 to help get the project going, and up to $5,500 for a truly unique experience with the Hybra team. We are looking forward to having the support of members of the international Kickstarter community who continually show their willingness to put their collective weight behind the advancement of new technology,” said Mr. Wells.
