How does the SwiMP3 work?
The new SwiMP3 underwater MP3 Player is revolutionary in that it relies on bone conduction of sound. When the device is placed on any bones of the skull (i.e. the cheek bones or the mastoid tip) it leads to vibration of the fluid in the inner ear. Thus swimmers can enjoy clarity of sound with the SwiMP3 device that was never before possible. Bone conduction hearing is a safe, well-established hearing mechanism in humans that the SwiMP3 player leverages to enhance aquatic activity. Finis’s application of the technology brings an entirely new level of experience to swimmers, either while working out or taking a leisurely swim. Safe and Proven Technology Bone conduction hearing is essentially an ancient sensory capability that the new SwiMP3 waterproof mp3 player leverages to enhance the experience of swimmers, triathletes, surfers, synchronized swimmers and anyone involved in general water activities.

Standard players rely on the transmission of sound through air or water causing the swimmer to perceive only muffled noise. The SwiMP3 uses bone conduction – the direct transfer of sound vibrations from the cheek bone to the inner ear – to provide the swimmer with exceptional sound clarity.
