Zungle Panther Sunglasses Send Music Through Your Bones

Zungle Panther sunglasses look like the normal shades you might see folks wearing, but these shades have something built in that music fans will love. If you want to listen to your favorite tunes or podcasts while on the go wearing these sunglasses you need no separate headphones or speakers. Zungle Panther sunglasses have built in bone conduction technology.

This tech is able to transmit sound waves to the skull via vibrations so you can hear your music. The bone conduction tech also leaves your ears unblocked so that you can hear what's going on around you. Hearing what's going on in the environment is a big deal for keeping safe while traveling outdoors where other headphones might not let you hear the car rolling up next to you before you step off the curb.

Zungle Panther promises sound comparable to normal earphones with a bone-conducting speaker on each side of the earpieces of the glasses. The glasses need no wires to connect to your smartphone or MP3 player, they connect with Bluetooth technology. An integrated microphone allows the Panther to be used for making and receiving phone calls. The audio playback and phone calls are controlled via a single jog button located on the right side earpiece.

Charging of the internal battery is via a USB port hidden inside the folding mechanism of the right earpiece. Five different frame colors are available with different lens colors available. The glasses are waterproof so sweat or being caught in rain won't ruin them. The lenses are also replaceable so if they are scratched, you can continue using the headphones. Zungle Panther are on Kickstarter looking for $50,000 and have raised over $524,000 with 22 days to go. A pledge of $109 or more will get you a Zungle Panther in your choice of colors. Shipping is estimated for November 2016.
