Improving on the design of the original bone conduction headphones from the brand, the 'Batband' mobile wireless headphones are intended to offer an impressive audio and interface experience.
The 'Batband' headphones are intended to be worn on the head like a headband in order to offer users the ability to listen to their music without having to physically have headphones on or in their ears. This enables them to maintain a better connection with the world around them and still enjoy their favorite music while commuting or simply walking around the city.
The 'Batband' mobile wireless headphones are the design work of Owi Sixseven and incorporate a touch-based control system on the unit in order to maximize fluid interaction.
