Holy Batphones, Batman!

By Heather

batphonesSo … what are Batphones, exactly? Are they the latest super high tech accessory on Batman’s utility belt? As obvious an answer as that seems, nope, that is not quite right. Are they the choice of headphones for vampires from Transylvania? Nah, that is not quite the right answer, either — they aren’t even the newest fashion accessory for hoards of screaming, tweenage Twilight fans.

Matthias Ries is the designer responsible for the strange, yet intriguing looking … things. Actually, the headphones work as a noise filter. So, say you are sitting in the back row of a room where someone is giving a speech up front. The Batphones can filter out the surrounding noise so that you can actually hear the speaker. You can even eavesdrop on your neighbors with these things! And there is no doubt that they make a very … unique fashion accessory.
