Underwater headset system
Challenge: Provide water sports athletes and enthusiasts with a waterproof, rugged, durable wireless headset that receives coaching instructions, music and other broadcasts above and below water.
Insight: Existing waterproof headset technology doesn’t provide an ability to receive real time signals and instructions. Bluetooth doesn’t work underwater, conventional antennas are too large for water sports and in-ear headphones aren’t ideal when you need to hear other things happening around you.
Result: Innovation in underwater bone conduction, radio transmission, antenna design and advanced manufacturing was combined into a world's first fully functional streaming watersports headset.
