The Bragi Dash earphones connect to a smartphone over bluetooth 4.0,
but they are much more than simply wireless earbuds. They have 4gb of
internal memory, so a phone is not required to listen to music - and
they include a crazy array of tech.
Low intesity red and infrared LEDs work with an optical sensor to
enable pulse oximetry, so they can measure heart rate with high
precision. They have 9 axis accelerometers to measure rotation and
movement. They use a touch interface similar to the trackpad on a
laptop, enabling gestures such as swipes.
They use an earbone microphone, that picks up vocal vibrations
through the bones of the head, to capture speech with detail and
clarity. There is an ambient microphone in each earphone, which in
conjunction with some advanced software algorithms, creates a
surprisingly realistic sound of whatever is happening around the wearer -
so you don't have to take them out to have a conversation. And they
come with an integrated charging case, so you can charge them on the go.
Bragi provides a smartphone app that expands the functionality of the
Dash, with many features aimed at runners and other athletes. And
they've already launched a developer portal that opens development of
new features up, so another apps may soon be able to integrate with the
Dash.
We don't know about you, but we want them ASAP!
