Mike Mike's a bit of a party starter let's put it that way that's what he's been doing for the past 20 years and he's becoming pretty damn good at it well I wish this story was all fun and games but sometimes you gotta take action to preserve your body Mike's ears are paying the price whenever he is DJing and producing he feels fatigue pain and lots of sensitivities but not anymore now he uses D but a pleasant let sound in and keeps noise out ha what is this D but thing you ask D but is what saved Mike from imminent silence and can save a lot of other people featuring a slider that allows you to adjust to the amount of decibels you want to filter out D but gives you a clearer crisper and safer music experience what's the difference between D but and a regular ear plug you might ask well here's some scientific explanation your ear is designed to naturally boost frequencies around 2 to 4 kilo Hertz like human speech most ear plugs simply fill out your ear canal to block sound problem is that they alter your years resonance frequency causing muffled unclear hearing as a result with D buds you can speak feel listen move do exactly what you're used to do our acoustic mesh is designed to reduce volume evenly for all frequencies throughout the spectrum while the acoustic or mechanically enhances frequencies in the range of human speech d-bus simply brings you clears a sound for mic this was a decision that dramatically changed the quality of his life with a simple slide and he is telling all his friends about it free text slides it to pitch down the high notes of joyful children and still be able to talk to the parents agent all slides it to tone down machine noise and keep the creative juices flowing anna slides it just so she can hear herself think at the agency and still be aware of the latest gossip samuel slides it to maintain sanity and focus and make every chance of small talk a prolific dialogue after years of research prototyping and testing we achieved a sleek design plug with minimum visual impact perfect fit and ease of use this means crisper clearer hearing with reduced volume every time we're ear lab and our mission is to bring you a better and safer listening experience no matter who you are or what you do help us make a difference for millions of people around the world d bud let's sound in keep noise out flip deck is a handheld action toy we set out to build a toy where anyone with any skill level can throw some sick tricks look it is fun to flip stuff adults spread parents kids like to flip stuff anybody can play having the toy communicate with you that knows what you're doing knows what tricks you're attempting there's a precedent for a handheld gaming big successful now in 2018 there's a technology available to us to be able to build a toy where we can throw something in the air catch it and it tells us exactly what we did I see people definitely playing it in breweries all over the country it's a great brewery bar drinking game right now we have four colors our core color is neon green and black it's made of a foam bottle with a plastic faceplate on it and we've got all the electronics and buttons and all the sensors and stuff and bent it inside of the toy we use some 3d modeling software to come up with a way to make the phone we could throw it up in the air and whip it around and it's not gonna hurt to catch it it gives a shock absorption that way the game is safe the components for the flip deck speaker at the top there display right under that three buttons which you use to navigate the menu three lights the green light in the middle tells you when you're ready to do a trick under the logo you have your two batteries in your capacitor the center of mass is where the gyroscope and / accelerometer sensor is so how do you play flip deck free play you just flip it in the air and the flip deck will tell you if you landed something or not flips FL yps which is our equivalent of horse solo ladder where you play by yourself gives you a trick list starting from easier and harder you climb the ladder attempting tricks when you actually land a trick and the game tells you what you landed there's nothing like it it's a fun game for everybody but it's also a game of skill it takes practice to be able to do thing you don't land it flip deck Louie there rtz a little bit or offer some words of encouragement back when we were growing up skateboarding we'd flip anything to get our hands on the idea of building something where you know we don't have to argue on if that was a trick or that was a trick you know the actual toy would be the judge so why do we need you and why we've done the Kickstarter we think that flip deck is awesome that everyone in the country and eventually the world should have the opportunity to play it well we're able to build prototypes in the garage right now afford to do it ourselves the only way to get it in your hands is to mass-produce it the main reason why we went with the physical standalone toy is it's way more fun to flip than your phone a lot of people aren't going to want to flip their eight hundred nine hundred dollar phones nowadays so we thought it'd be cool to get people interacting again you know enjoying themselves and each other playing a game that's actually tangible and just staring at a screen we

raised by 5000 backers within 60 days our team has recently released its first generation of outdoor camping light Helio we have completed the design we will start production and release on the IndieGoGo for the whole world outdoor enthusiasts hi it's Lorenzo from balls motion last year after our campaign on IndieGoGo we shipped a load the first version of bolt they were most portable electric skateboard we learned a lot from that experience and from your feedback you really helped us building this product today we are happy to show you how great improvement about 2017 we reviewed every single part and improved when needed as a first thing we use a new battery inside the board increasing range up to 14 kilometers the new battery is more robust so it can resist under a lot of stress we redesign the board now it looks a lot thinner and it's reinforced with glass fiber so it's more robust as well an invisible anti scratch protective layer covers the wood that will stay cleaner within the board we embedded shock absorber to reduce vibrations we now have a new robot controller more compact and robust than the previous generation it also has a dual speed mode one for beginners and one for expert that can release the full power and go at the same speed of a bike even the battery charger is now more compact so it's easier to carry when you want to charge your battery on-the-go and another with addition inside the board there is a Bluetooth module that lets your bot communicate with your smartphone with an app available for both Android and iOS you can know everything about your bolt and record your writings if your smartphone battery's running low you can charge it with the USB port under your boat we added all of this while keeping what makes both very

Baltimore Sun dot-com hey here you go this is crazy that's so cool oh wow oh wow that's enlarged you know I told you I used to be the military and stuff and I got a lot of hearing loss from my job and so this is like a new level of hearing superhero right now a couple my friends have like some hearing issues but nothing like this this is this is kind of this is nice so plus the VA is usually pretty good about covering stuff but if their hearing isn't covered it's really expensive for them to have to you know buy one of these things I'm sure this is expensive one in five Americans are disabled what comes to mind when you hear the word disability why is hearing impairment so accepted then we don't fix the source of the problem a decent hearing aid they cost around two thousand dollars or more people don't wear hearing aids as a fashion statement like they do glasses only Union was founded to combat the two impairments price and social perception and eliminate hearing impairment how the first barrier price here's how much a decent hearing aid cost today $4,400 and here's the breakdown cutting down significantly on the materials and research expenses we don't use expensive machines for testing and diagnostics we kept our margins as low as possible and after cutting out as many costs as we could we were still at $500 the second barrier is social perception we approached hearing aids from a totally different design perspective not as a medical device but as an accessory we designed the Olive benchmarking the latest earbuds and Bluetooth earpieces over the past year we develop the next generation hearing aid using a smart sound algorithm and Bluetooth technology we've also revolutionized the hearing test and feeding process to make it quick easy and accessible we reviewed tabs on the only app you can set up a customized hearing profile with sound frequencies optimized for your ears you don't need a funky looking medical device or amplifier to hear better you just need on olive but in order for this to be truly accessible $500 is still too high our goal is to bring the olive to you at $100 flap this isn't just a crowdfunding campaign is crowd R&D campaign in order to reduce R&D costs I need all of you to help us paratis the only and providers with the proper feedback so that we can create the best hearing experience for everyone let's hear the world together you
