5. Finis Neptune MP3 Player

Neptune is a waterproof MP3 player that provides the highest quality sound in the water without the use of ear buds. Neptune uses revolutionary Bone Conduction Audio transmission to transmit crystal clear audio through the cheekbones directly into the inner ear. With 4Gb of storage, aquatic athletes can listen to music, audio books, podcast and more, all with incredible sound quality. The included charging cable also allows for quick song upload to the device. The 3-piece design has 2 speakers and a high contrast OLED screen that sits comfortably on the back of the head. The screen shows the song, artist and play status for each use. Neptune attaches securely to goggle straps and rests on the cheekbones as not to interfere with the swimming technique

6. Finis Aquapulse Heart Rate Monitor

Never stop to check your heart rate again. With the Aquapulse Heart Rate Monitor your current heart rate is verbally announced while you swim or freedive (within 3m/10feet depth). Simply slip the Aquapulse inside your goggle strap, attach the soft rubber clip to your earlobe and start swimming. Using and infrared sensor to monitor capillary blood flow, your heartbeat is detected through your earlobe. The heart rate is then audibly communicated to you in real time., where the information is transmitted directly to your inner ear via Bone Conduction Technology. No ear buds, cumbersome chest straps, or watch devices are needed. Complete with a lithium-ion rechargable battery, you can use the Aquapulse from five to eight hours, depending on the interval setting.
