Bone Sound Conduction
So how about some alternate speaker technology? Like the Dead Tech The Bone Fone
But wait .. it doesn’t seem to be dead. Other occurences of similiar technology:
So this is starting to remind me of something I vaguely remember from Shadowrun RPG ( or was it a shadowrun novel) that there was a mobile phone that was kind of embedded into you. The idea was that your body had been modded with technology(phone) that only you could hear, and you could speak using subvocal communication inaudible to those around you. Weird and Freaky ? Well .. it may be closer nowadays to fact than cyberpunk fiction. Searching for “Subvocal Microphones” on google brings up plenty of cyberpunk related things. But for some serious style links try out:
- Sobvocal Microphones (NASA Tech)
- Non-acoustic sensors detect speech without sound (New Scientist)
There are some that say Cyberpunk is dead. I don’t think that’s the case at all, the dream of high technology 15 years ago are now just more of a reality, or not far from the truth.
