| The Bragi Dash Pro tailored by Starkey is a computer if your ear. |
You may have heard of "wearables" - wireless techonologies that you wear such as a smart watch or exercise monitor. A "hearable" is the same idea, but offers both an enhanced listening experience (it is worn in your ear) and biometric data to track your exercise performance. Let me explain:
Starkey has partnered with a company called Bragi to launch the Dash Pro tailored by Starkey Hearing Technologies. It is a wireless earphone fit and tailored for the consumer. It features a custom shell and enhanced sound so that it fits each specific user.
These are earphones you can walk, run, swim, and bike with. The custom made shells assure that they fit in you ears comfortably and securely. You can listen to music through your smartphone with no wires at all. You can also stream your phone calls. And, you can track your workouts and collect fitness data such as heartbeat, steps and duration while running, cadence while cycling, and breaths while swimming. Data is picked up by sensors in your ear - how cool is that! Since they are waterproof, you can use them for all sports indoors and out.
Here is what you do: make an appointment with us - only your Starkey/Audibel provider can order your custom Dash Pro. We will make custom impressions of your ears, and they will be scanned electronically at Starkey to create 3-D printed shells with the Bragi earphones imbedded. We will fit them to you in our office, and you can be on your way.
Audio quality features full bass and clarity in the treble. The Dash is actually a computer in your ear. Tailored to you - you can listen to music, track your fitness data, and communicate by smartphone. I don't have mine yet...they will be released in a few weeks, but I can't wait to try these out.
