These custom earbuds are designed not to fall out as they are 3D printed to fit your ears perfectly. Currently seeking finances through crowdfunding platform Kickstarter, OwnPhones are also wireless. Ideal for working out and listening on the go, these custom-fit headphones are perfect for active people.
This startup's objective is to offer the best sounding and most comfortable earbuds possible. To get a pair of the listening devices, users must download the OwnPhones app to take a short video of their ears. This is then turned into a digital 3D model of the ear, which the custom earbuds are made from. The earbuds also come in a variety of designs so your headphones can match your inner ear and unique personality.
