News & Reviews:   MP3 player

According to Instructables, invisible headphones are more or less tiny magnets that you insert into your ears that pick up signals from a coil of magnetic metal fashioned into a necklace. When connected to an amplifier and MP3 player it allows you to have invisible wireless headphones. While the Instructables site it was based on tells you to put the magnets in your ears, Rich Lee went one step further and had them implanted permanently. While he still has to wear the coil necklace and amplifier to pick up sound, it works much in the same way as the bone induction audio used by Google Glass. He says:

"Listening to music is nice and probably the most obvious answer, but I intend to do some very creative things with it. I can see myself using it with the GPS on my smartphone to navigate city streets on foot. I plan to hook it up to a directional mic of some sort (possibly disguised as a shirt button or something) so I can hear conversations across a room. Having a mic hooked up to it and routed through my phone would be handy."
