I’ve been reading up on Bone Conducting Headphones. I bought my wife a pair for Christmas and she loves them. She listens to audiobooks while doing crosswords, going for walks, shopping, having meals, etc. I think they have been the best present I have bought her in the 20+ years we’ve been together. The problem with regular hearing aids is that they still use the structure in the ear to pass the sound into the brain. Bone Conducting Headphones do not. They bypass the inner ear and feed the vibrations directly into the Cochlear. They work in a similar way to the Cochlear Implants that some profoundly deaf people have. However, BCHs are far less obtrusive and much cheaper. It’s possible to get Bluetooth transmitters that plug into your TV, PC, or other entertainment equipment and wirelessly connect to a set of BCHs. I have found a lapel microphone that can plug into one of those transmitters which should mean that a deaf person could clip that on, connect to their BCHs and carry on a normal conversation with anyone. I haven’t tested this complete setup yet. My set of headphones is on its way, and I haven’t bought the rest of the equipment yet, but if this works as I suspect, then it’s possible to get almost normal hearing assistance for around $50, which beats the crap out of the thousands currently being asked for cheap hearing aids. The expensive ones are $10k+ and Cochlear Implants are more expensive. There’s a business out there for you that can be set up for almost nothing and that can potentially earn you millions. Send me a thank you note when you make serious money from this. Regards, P.S. Ideas are all around us if we pay attention. This one came about because of my wife’s love of these headphones. I did get a very short listen and was amazed at the quality of the audio. Ideas on their own are worthless, you have to take action on them for them to become valuable. That’s what makes this so valuable. The ideas in it can be used for anything you choose. https://go.wm-tips.com/diamond. You do have to take action though. |
