They make not make your head look particularly glamorous, but this headband offers a little something different to the conventional audio headphones.

The Vibso headband, designed by student Renaud Defrancesco, plays music via Bluetooth and creates sound through a vibrating electromagnet in the top of the headband.

“It’s a new way to listen to music,” Defrancesco told Dezeen. “You are bathed in music without being isolated like with normal headphones, which can be dangerous because you don’t hear what’s around you.”
