AMAZING NEW TECHNOLOGY CAN 'BEND' SOUNDS INTO YOUR EARS ONLY

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Scientists have discovered a way to create localized pockets of sound isolated from their surroundings, creating sound exactly where it needs to be. The technique involves using ultrasound as a carrier for audible sound - ultrasound transports sound through space silently, becoming audible only when desired. The ultrasonic beams can bend as they travel, allowing for the creation of curved sound paths that can navigate around obstacles and meet at a specific target location. Many more details about how this technology works are available in the article.
