Tiny MP3 player that's controlled by your teeth seeks funding

A growing trend in consumer electronics is hands-free operation, which allow users to interact with their devices using their voice or hand gestures. But one prototype is tapping into a new way for users to control it: their teeth. Seeking funding on Kickstarter, a tiny MP3 player called Split separates into two earbuds, which simultaneously play a track in both ears and are controlled by teeth clicks (one bite to skip a track, two bites to adjust the volume). Unfortunately, Split's storage space is surprisingly small: It can only fit roughly 24 songs. But for those who have a standard workout playlist and love chewing, this might be the device for them.
