Certainly we can,,, just not necessarily in the way you might think. The idea of wireless helmet headsets to be used while riding your favorite motorcycle is now reality.
J&M's first generation Bluetooth wireless helmet headsets are high powered "true" stereo headsets with all the great sound and performance you have come to expect from J&M.
They will link to most of today's Bluetooth enabled cell phones, cell phones with MP/3 music files built-in, GPS audio command centers like the Garmin Zumo550 and TomTom Rider, along with next generation portable FRS or CB radios for an even greater enhancement of your motorcycle audio experience.
And because J&M has designed the intercom portion of our Bluetooth helmet headset as a wired intercom between the two helmets, the seamless communication between the rider and passenger can never be interrupted, no matter what is being transmitted from the linked Bluetooth device, including cell phone conversation.
J&M's next generation "Integrated" Bluetooth headsets are already on the drawing board, like this one shown here that will be made specifically for the Nolan N-102 N-Com helmet.
Many of you are wondering how we will go from Bluetooth headsets that will only link to one type of system or feature at a time, to headsets that can be used with full featured type audio systems (music, intercom, CB, cell phone, GPS and/or radar detector all combined) like the ones now almost standard equipment on the Honda Gold Wing and Harley Ultra Classic.
The secret to that transition will be in the custom designed "dongles" that the engineers at J&M are working on right now.
The first custom J&M dongle to be released, #JBLU-DNG01 is designed with the sport tourer in mind as it combines the stereo music from an I-pod or other MP/3/sat radio source with the beeps or braps from your favorite radar detector, along with simultaneous linking with your cell phone.
Plug your favorite passenger into the back of your Bluetooth headset, link to your cell phone and J&M #JBLU-DNG01 dongle and you will have a combined audio system featuring music, intercom, cell phone and radar detector audio signals that are properly prioritized and integrated for your riding enjoyment.
While the current crop of Bluetooth headsets may not yet be ready for "prime time" on your Gold Wing, the custom made J&M dongles will lead the Bluetooth wireless headsets from single feature devices, to integral parts of a complete motorcycle audio system.
I for one am going to enjoy the ride! |
