New BioSport headphones allow you to listen to music and track your workouts simultaneously

The latest headphones to be released by rapper 50 Cent’s brand SMS Audio, combines the two elements most people today see as necessities when running – music & monitoring.

SMS Audio has combined with American chip manufacturer Intel to produce a product that aims to nullify the amount of wearable’s runners wear. The BioSport in-ear headphones use Intel’s smart earphone technology to monitor the users heart rate via sensors built into the amplifiers.

We have already seen the need for chest straps almost die out with the huge rise in wearable smart watch style products, now SMS Audio, along with other performance monitoring headphones already on the market, aims to block out the need for any add-on devices.

The headphones sync with a variety of existing smartphone apps such as Run Keeper to constantly keep the user up to date and informed of their performance output. The headphones are run off of the users smartphone, which results in the user never having to worry about the battery life (well the headphones anyway).

The BioSport headphones are set to be release later this year and have yet to be given an RRP.
