Look Listen: Exhibitionist Headphones Record Life
It’s hard to even know what category this gadget belongs in because
it does so much. It may look like a weird headphones/ear warmers
combination, but it’s much more than that. The headphones do, in fact,
play music over a wireless connection. But do you see those little
dongles on the outside of the ear cups? They add a whole new layer of
usefulness to an item that lots of us use every day.
The devices on each ear are actually a 10.1 megapixel digital camera
and a digital image projector. The idea behind the design is to make it
simple for everyone to record and share their daily explorations. The design, by William Gerwin,
incorporates wireless connectivity not only keep your music flowing,
but also to upload all of your explorations into a personal online
gallery – or if you prefer, use the P2P capability to just share your
photos with your friends directly.
All of your data is automatically backed up to your PC, making sure
you never lose the records of your adventures. But if you’re into
instant gratification, the projector dongle lets you show your photos
right away – just point it at a wall or table and show off the evidence
of all of your travels. Unfortunately this awesome multifunctional
gadget is still a concept, but that doesn’t stop us from wanting these
headphones that would let us record our every step.
