Groovy baby! MP3 player which plays music to unborn babies
By Daily Mail Reporter
A new music system has been designed to deliver soothing tunes straight to the tender ears of the most delicate of listeners - unborn babies.
The Ritmo pregnancy sound system wraps around an expectant mother's tummy and plays music into the womb through four speakers.
Its designers say unborn babies show signs of 'reactive listening' from just 17 weeks into the pregnancy.
And they claim that playing music to a foetus can provide the 'building blocks' for future musical ability and intellectual development.
The new device, which connects to an mp3 player, is said to allow mums and babies to share 'the sensory and emotional experience of bonding through sound and music.'
Ritmo was invented by dad of two Oren Oz after his wife had struggled to play music to her unborn child during her second pregnancy.
The 34-year-old said: 'Ritmo was born out of my frustration at seeing my wife struggle to find a comfortable position that also allowed the speakers to stay still.
'It was impossible for her to be mobile while having the maximum flexibility to choose her own sound.
'None of the existing solutions on the market place seemed suitable in their design, technology and functionality.
'Ritmo was created to deliver sound safely in utero, taking into account the unique acoustic environment of the womb.'
Mr Oz said he and his team of full-time parents at Nuvo Group designed the gadget with both the foetus and the comfort of the mother in mind.
The two pairs of speakers are embedded in a stretchy fabric pad that fits around the tummy and can be worn under clothing.
The system is attached to an mp3 player and the sound is split three ways - two arrays of speakers and earphones for the mum to join in.
This, says Mr Oz, creates an 'in-utero auditorium and delivers safe sound to the baby regardless of his head position inside the womb.'
The inventor, from South Carolina, USA, added: 'The key to the system is in the real-time control of the sound output to the speaker arrays.
'We are not trying to educate people to play music while pregnant - we just offer better a solution to those who already do.
'Ritmo can now provide an unparalleled bonding experience for both parent and child through music sound and voice.'
The Ritmo pregnancy sound system is on sale at www.nuvo-group.com for £80.

Magnet Case Keeps Your iPod Stuck To You, And Also, This Is How You Sell Products
The iStik is a $27 iPod case that has neodymium magnets on its two parts so you can stick it to your bikini or running shorts (one magnetic piece goes on the inside, case goes on the outside). Pretty clever. And also, based purely on the above imagery, I just bought a dozen --and I don't even own an iPod! Now that's how you sell products. Advertisers take note: when in doubt, T&A. A letter, a symbol, and another letter to live by.
Hit the jump for another product shot.
