Please like our project in order for funding. ;)
Materials
-Plastic (for 3D printing)
-Earbuds
-Styrofoam
-Foam
-Splitter
Note:
We are currently using pre-made earbuds as we cannot afford to create our own mini speakers... yet.
How we're going to make it
We aim have a speaker device that aims sound into the ear, giving an authentic, speaker sound. It is also proposed perhaps to have earbuds behind for full surround. How we propose to do this is 3D print. (We have to make with what we've got) and furthermore cushion it with foam (to absorb sound).
A plus side of using pre-made earbuds is creating it will be cheaper and it will be compatible with most other people's earbuds. Ultimately, the goal is to make our own.
Finally, the device will be hung around your ear.
This project is being created by Impact Laboratories.
Note: We will be updating the project, adding features etc. Also, these are aimed to be compatible with any type of earbuds.
Like our project. ;)
I've never had earbuds that block me from my surroundings, I'm not sure if people are just deaf or too stupid to use their other senses.
