It’s just won an Australian Design Award, and while it’s firmly in the concept stage at the moment, I can see it becoming pretty popular amongst the yummy mummy set. It’s just a shame it’ll probably never see the light of day. [Tuvie via InventorSpot via UberGizmo]

Further more it has been studied that fetus start to learn and grow from external sources, strap something on prevent them hearing and feeling the outside world is not too good.

I’m thinking if they actually build the thing it would be an expensive novelty that would wear off pretty quick!! :)
