Talking Windows

Today we are going to talk about a new method of publicity which is revolutionizing the whole Europe. This technical device is called, Talking Windows. Tired people often rest their heads on the windows of busses and trains. They do not expect other thing but resting when suddenly, a voice inside their heads starts talking to them. This is because of a small technical device attached to the public transport windows. This special transmitter sends out inaudible high frequency vibrations which the brain transforms into sounds. This technology is called "Bone Conduction" The good thing about this is that it can be use by deaf people, the military or it may tell you that the next stop is yours but it also have some disadvantages, it could make you feel crazy because nobody except you hears the voice or because it can tell you to do something and unfortunately, you will do it. Your plans or the way you shop, for example, will change completely.


In these videos you can see how the talking windows work, additionally there are some ideas about how to relax by avoiding listening to these voices:

Just starting!

Hi everyone!
We are two students from IES Jaime Ferran. Our names are Carlota and Maria. We have created this blog for our technology class mainly because our teacher Marga told us. We will post technology facts, but also some things that are not strictly related with technology. Some of our hobbies are horse ridding, gymnastics, athletism, music and, obviously, shopping.
