Another team turning their dreams into reality through Kickstarterhas managed to raise a serious amount of funding. This time the goal is glowing headphone cables. The pitch calls it the world’s first smart headphones. With these you’ll be able to measure your heart rate. The button on the headphones lets you take photos with your phone. The same button also lets you listen to incoming messages, answer phone calls, and the plus-and-minus buttons let you control your music media however you want.
The lights in the cables won’t drain your phone’s battery. Instead a Lithium Polymer battery in the button area powers that. You charge the battery via USB cable from the button. They’ve also designed a protective case that contains all the cable and button parts. The laser cables come in green, red and blue for now. They’ve raised around $350,000 on Kickstarter so far.
