G-Note

The goal of the G-Note was to design a pair of headphones/earphones. I chose to combine the strengths of both Apple AirPods and Trekz Aftershokz in the G-Note, but also fix the flaws in their designs. Aftershokz bone conduction design overcomes the AirPods flaws, but no adjustability and is uncomfortable for anyone wearing glasses. AirPods reduces the wearer’s awareness, can be unsecure when the ears begin to sweat, and they will require frequent cleaning due to being inside the user ear canal.
