I wrote about Bone Conduction Wireless Glasses on Tuesday. In sum, they are glasses that create sound using mechanical vibrations. Bluez 2S Wireless Bone Conduction Headphones are another example of bone conduction technology.
AfterShokz website provides a brief history of how bone conduction was discovered:
