10 Genius Kickstarter Projects That You Should Get Behind In 2016

3. Blipcast: Send TV Audio To Your Smartphone's Headphones

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1826049234/blipcast-turn-any-headphones-into-wireless-headpho?ref=category_featured Anyone who has ever tried to do their daily yoga routine set to the dulcet tones of Black Ops II will know that headphones are a wonderful thing. No everyone wants to hear you marathoning Dexter at 3am, but hooking headphones up to your TV is a a massive pain. Either, you plug them in and sit six inches from the screen (not a recommended viewing distance for Dexter), or invest in a pair of bluetooth headphones and watch the battery life tangibly drain out of them before the first ad break. Blipcast allows you to indulge in late-night Netflix binges without disturbing your friends and loved ones. The device plugs into the audio output of your TV and streams the sound wirelessly to your smartphone. You can then plug any headphones you like into your phone and listen via that. As well as late-night TV marathons, Blipcast would also be great for public spaces such as gyms and bars so people can watch public television's without subjecting everyone else to the inane yammering of sports commentators. It would also be absolutely ideal for anyone who is hearing impaired. Check out their Kickstarter page here.
