Cartilage conduction headphones use bone conduction technology to transmit sound waves directly to the inner ear through the cartilage of the ear, whereas traditional speakers and headphones transmit sound through the air. Cartilage conduction headphones are placed on the cheekbone just in front of the ear canal, bypassing the eardrum and conducting sound to the cochlea. This technology is suitable for people who are deaf or who need to pay attention to their surroundings while listening to audio content.

Elektromedizinische Gerate GmbH, Medtronic Plc, Motorola Solutions Inc., Oticon Medical AS, BHM Tech Produktionsgesellschaft mbH, Cochlear Ltd., Damson, Demant AS, Panasonic Holdings Corp., SeboTek Hearing Systems LLC.
The latest developments in Cartilage Conduction Headphone Market are: In September 2022, Bose announced the closure of its
healthcare-focused division and announced that it would no longer manufacture and sell consumer hearing aids. In addition, Bose has partnered with Lexi Hearing, with Bose’s healthcare-oriented hearing aid technology, offering products in Lexi’s B1 hearing aid product portfolio. These new Bose-powered Lexie hearing aids allow wearers to program and control their own hearing aids without the need to see a doctor.
In June 2020, Kyocera Corporation and Tokyo Medical and Dental University (TMDU) partnered to work on a joint research project. This research project aims to develop a wireless headset that can remotely monitor high-precision patient biometrics such as blood oxygen saturation (SpO2). In May 2020, the Cardiology Department of TMDU Medical Hospital started preparations for clinical research on the wearable headset system. It also allows healthcare professionals to perform more detailed assessments, reducing consultation time. Employing bone conduction audio technology in place of traditional microphones and speakers, it allows the patient’s limbs to move freely while exercising while filtering out unwanted ambient noise. Question: Which region is expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities for the cartilage conduction headphones market? The North American cartilage conduction headphone market accounts for over 40% of global sales. The current market size is around US$30 million, but the region is estimated to grow significantly at a CAGR of around 22%. These growth projections anticipate increased adoption of advanced hearing devices, especially for people with partial or total hearing loss. The WHO estimates that in the United States alone, approximately 38 million adults, or 15% of the adult population, have some degree of hearing loss. In addition, increasing smartphone users, growing popularity of mobile games and entertainment are also estimated to drive the cartilage conduction headphones market. Currently, the Asia-Pacific cartilage conduction headphone market is expected to reach approximately US$650 million. The cartilage conduction headphone market is growing at a CAGR of around 22% during 2023-2035. These growth projections can be attributed to the growing elderly population in the region. According to data provided by the United Nations, people over the age of 60 make up about 32% of the Asia-Pacific population, or about 600 million people.
