Product description
“Losonnante” means “sounding bones” and enables a unique sound experience through your own body sound. While sound waves are transmitted through the air in conventional listening, structure-borne sound propagates through solid bodies. In this case, the sound is transmitted via your own bones – from the elbows via the arms to the hands and ears.
Hearing via bone conduction offers an additional acoustic advantage: in noisy environments, disturbing external noise can be reduced by placing the hands on the ears.
A digital audio player is integrated into the listening station. The app supplied can be used to configure the system and easily upload your own audio files. To start the audio track, the elbows are placed on the structured surface. The sound changes depending on how you position your hands on your ears, so that each person can find their perfect listening position. The Losonnante listening station can be integrated into existing furniture or custom-made objects and allows for flexible use, both sitting and standing.
The Losonnante listening station is available in three versions: electric, battery and video. All devices meet the IP65 protection class. The models with mains and battery power are specially designed for outdoor use, with the battery-powered model able to be operated with an additional battery. The video version, on the other hand, is intended for indoor use only and requires a mains power supply. The video version also offers the option of playing videos on a connected screen via HDMI.
The Losonnante listening station is robust, resilient and low-maintenance. For indoor use, tables with wooden surfaces are available that give the device a sophisticated feel. For outdoor use, high tables and seating desks are available.
Structure-borne sound transmission enables unhindered access to culture and knowledge for all target groups – including children, families, people with limited mobility, and those who are visually or hearing impaired. In addition, active listening via bone conduction can promote attention, memory and concentration, and effectively support playful learning.
