About the weight of an earring, and half the size of a Bluetooth device, Soundhawk fits right in your ear. In an interview with The Wire, the team behind Soundhawk gave us the details on the company and let us test run the product. Soundhawk is the brain child of Rodney Perkins, who is an ear surgeon turned startup guru. Soundhawks design came from a team of about 25, half of whom have scientific expertise in the hearing industry, and half of whom have worked on commercial technology products for the likes of Apple, Amazon, and Motorola. Now, Soundhawk isnt for people with hearing impairments.
