    This is interesting. Using bone conducting technology to pass the sound to whoever put their elbows on the metal rail and cover their ears.

    This would be very interesting to check out. I would love to see it used elsewhere. From the page: "Using bone conduction technology (or what they call "Touched Echo") the sounds of airplanes and explosions simulating the air raid that occurred on February 13, 1945 are transmitted from the metal rail through the visitor's arms and directly into the inner ear. The sounds are completely inaudible to someone who isn't touching the rail"

    Bone conduction technology is being used in interactive exhibits to replace audio gear and headphones. Simply look for the signs telling you that there is audio content that goes along with the exhibit, cup your hands to your hears, and rest your elbows on the audio enabled surface. The sound will travel through your bones into your ears!

    What if about people with weakened skeletons? Someone could put their arms on the thing and have their bones shatter or something...

    A public audio exhibit in which instead of using headphones participants cover their ears with their hands and listen via bone-conduction technology. I'd like to try it.
