The silly thing is that the binaural distance is way too small. This (IMO) is far more important that the simulation of the ear-shape. My own binaural recordings sound just as convincing when the mics were above vs in my ears.

Great for making recordings for babies, though. ;D

One ugly baby. Looks more like a wacking stick.

"...The resulting playback in omnidirectional 3D sound is more realistic than normal stereo because of the subtle shifts in feeling." Oh, that explains it. ::)

This is cool. You can stealth it inside your ventriliquist dummy (assuming you are not taping in a venue where people try to chat up your ventriliqust dummy, very annoying that).

I also just saw it's $3900!
no way! :P

It looks like it was designed by marketing.

Looks good for recording sounds of laughter.
-
they should put a nose and mustache on it to make it easier to stealth

nothing like paying $3900 for a little head
my thought is that a larger head would make it harder to shoot video
since you couldn't really see around it... but who knows?

The obvious solution is for the videographer to wear mics on their own head.

I don't know very much about taping, but I was gonna say the same thing. It's not the ear shape that's important, but the density and size of the head, right? Also, whose freaky ears are those things based on? Every part of those ears are completely abnormal.

I wonder if they have a version with Vulcan Hears :)

...at 1/10th of the cost or less. That must be one head y mini connection on the back.
