Hey all!
I came across this article about 3d printed customized headphones.
Is it real? and if so, has anyone tried them and saw if they're any good?

Use Oogoo to make a perfect fit to your ear.

Search for ear, silicone, Oogoo on Instructables, lots of examples here are two:

Haha. I had an interview with them not too long ago. They are real. I believe they are launching to the public on August 10th. Idk how much I can say, but I do know each headphone is customized to the users ear by technicians with the data they get from the app.

oh and the article speculates that they are using SLA for the in ear part. Actually, they 3d printed part is made on the Fortus 250s they mention, so they are FDM.
