Embodiment Construction

[0056] Some embodiments of the invention disclosed herein relate to a system for generating personal audio signals in an aquatic environment. In some embodiments, the system includes waterproof earphones for generating audio signals to a user's ear while the ear is underwater. In some embodiments, the system includes methods for waterproofing an audio device that generates signals that are convertible to audio signals. Current technology does not allow for the reliable submersion of audio devices into aquatic environments or for the use of such audio devices in environments where they will be exposed to water. Furthermore, there exists only limited technology for the transmission of audio waves to a user submerged in such an aquatic environment.

[0057] Underwater submersion of earphones and audio devices require consideration of the effects of water and pressure on sensitive electronic components. In addition to the mechanical effects of pressure underwater, water pressure also prom...
