I’ve spoken a lot about bone-conducting technology and its apparent drawbacks as far as earphone/wearables are concerned, but scale the tech up and you’ve got something you can really work with. Bone-conduction basically uses a speaker unit that relies on an external material/surface to act as its propagation medium. Place the speakers against a glass, and the glass vibrates to create sound. Place it inside an empty coffee cup and the cup starts emanating music. Place it against the bone in front of your ears and you can hear music inside your head… music that doesn’t transfer through air waves, but rather passes through a solid surface.
Humbird looks at larger applications to this technology, rather than focusing on the wearables industry. A relatively small, hockey-puck-sized gizmo, Humbird has the ability to transform surfaces into speakers. Place it on a coffee table and the table begins to transmit audio, creating a rich sound that you can hear all around your room. Attach it to the body of your acoustic guitar and you’re treated to a different, more airy sound, thanks to the guitar’s hollow acoustic-resonation box. The speaker doesn’t transmit sound waves through air, but rather relies on a vibrating unit that delivers sound via vibrations through an external medium.
It’s easy to be fooled by Humbird’s incredibly small size, but the truth is that the Humbird’s sound is as big as the object you rest it against. Just by simple contact, you can turn entire dining tables, doors, or window-panels into vibrating speaker units that emanate sound through the room. You can easily carry the Humbird with you anywhere, turning your car’s dashboard or your office’s conference table into an audio unit that’s Bluetooth 5.0 tethered to your phone. Unlike traditional speakers, Humbird truly throws sound in 360°. Since the object you place it on begins transmitting vibrations in every direction, sound travels in every direction too, truly creating an immersive, surrounded audio experience. The device itself is a mere 1.57 inches in width, weighing just 35 grams. The Humbird comes with a precisely machined aluminum body, with a brushed pattern on top, reminiscent of the reflections you see on CDs. It comes with a USB-C charging port and comes with 3 hours of playback on a full charge. On the base of the Humbird are even four suction cups that allow you to fasten the vibration-speaker to any surface, be it a window pane, a mirror, cabinet, or even the fridge, if you choose! Humbird works independently and even has the ability to pair with a second Humbird speaker to go from Mono to Stereo sound!
What’s also really interesting to see how different materials act as propagators of sound. Glass has a very different way of reproducing vibrations as compared to wood, steel, plastic, or even ceramics. Other than that, different forms with an interplay of solid surfaces and hollow spaces reproduce sound rather differently. A cardboard box is much more suited for bass-heavy audio like dance music or dubstep, while glass and ceramics produce much more accurate audio with a balance across frequencies. Different sorts of wood also replicate sound differently, giving you the ability to play with the speaker’s volume and equalizer settings by just simply placing it on different surfaces. You could even place it against your rib-cage to see how sound waves traverse through your body and into your brain’s audio receptors!
