We're thrilled to announce our revolutionary headphones — Titanium — have been named a CES 2016 Innovation Awards Honoree in the Headphone Category. Products entered in this prestigious program are judged by a preeminent panel of independent industrial designers, independent engineers, and members of the trade media to honor outstanding design and engineering in cutting edge consumer electronics products across 27 product categories.
Titanium wireless bone conduction headphones are designed to ensure the ultimate level of awareness and comfort—without compromising on premium sound. Titanium was built to serve the demands of runners and cyclists who prioritize safety and were creatively brought to market via a 60-day Indiegogo campaign that raised $654,916 with 4,888 contributors from 94 countries. This marks the most successful Indiegogo effort for a bone conduction headphone and ranks the Titanium campaign among the top 5 headphone campaigns in Indiegogo/Kickstarter history. Titanium continues to garner support from consumers through Indiegogo InDemand, where they’re available to pre-order for $129.
“We are honored to receive this esteemed award from the Consumer Technology Association,” said Bruce Borenstein, President and CEO of AfterShokz. “On the heels of a wildly successful Indiegogo campaign for Titanium, this recognition is further validation that we are designing and delivering industry-leading products that are changing the way people enjoy their music and take calls while staying connected to the world around them."
The prestigious CES Innovation Awards are sponsored by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA)TM, the producer of CES 2016, the global gathering place for all who thrive on the business of consumer technologies and have been recognizing achievements in product design and engineering since 1976.
AfterShokz’s Titanium headphones will be proudly displayed at CES 2016 (Tech West, Sands Expo, Booth #74305), which runs January 6-9, 2016, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Entries are evaluated on their engineering, aesthetic and design qualities, intended use/function and user value, how the design and innovation of the product directly compares to other products in the marketplace and unique/novel features present.
Products chosen as CES Innovation Honorees reflect innovative design and engineering in some of the most cutting edge tech products and services coming to market.
