Handsfree laws put your convertible-driving readers in a difficult situation.  Conventional headsets, including “noise-canceling” Bluetooth headsets and speakerphone systems, only work at low speeds or when the vehicle is completely stopped because they do not function well under high-wind acoustic situations.

The NT3 (by IASUS), however, is a throat mic headset that sits around the neck, directly absorbing the vibrations generated by the user’s voice.  In effect, the NT3 eliminates wind noise by simply not picking up those signals. This is what makes it the only effective handsfree solution currently on the market for convertible drivers.

The recent proliferation of handsfree driving regulations has, until now, left convertible drivers without a viable mobile communications solution. Now, however, IASUS Concepts is offering one. With the NT3 Throat Mic Headset, IASUS brings its original Noise Terminator technology to a mobile communications headset that bypasses the acoustic difficulties of high-speed, high-wind conditions convertible drivers face.

Convertible owners face unique challenges in operating their communications devices because of wind turbulence. The IASUS NT3 line of throat microphones, utilizing transponder technology first developed for military pilots and tank drivers in WWI, is the only effective solution to these extreme acoustic conditions. This is because the sole source of audio for throat mic transmissions is the vibrations generated from within the neck, as opposed to frequencies carried through the air. Other headsets utilize “wind noise cancellation,” which is not effective when exposed to the actual mechanics of the strong winds present in top-down convertible environments. IASUS Throat Mics pick up only direct voice signals, in effect eliminating environmental noise. This makes them uniquely effective in noisy, high-wind surroundings, unlike “noise canceling” Bluetooth® headsets and speakerphones that still fail to perform under open convertible conditions.

The NT3 headset features the IASUS Gen 3.0 Noise Terminator transponder, tangle-resistant braided nylon wiring, and an acoustic coil earpiece. It is compatible with most mobile phones that include a 2.5 mm or 3.5mm jack, including iPhone™, BlackBerry®, and select Nokia™ and Motorola® models.

For the convertible enthusiast who has been waiting for a truly effective handsfree headset for their spirited open-top drives, the IASUS NT3 Throat Mic headset is the ideal communications solution.
