3M and Racing Electronics collaborate on a new, two-way communications headset
Headset improves clarity to help racecar drivers communicate with crews during races
3M announces a collaborative effort with Racing Electronics that has resulted in a newly designed, two-way communications headset. Roush Fenway Racing and the No. 16 3M Ford Fusion driven by Greg Biffle were the first to use the new communications headset in NASCAR racing action at the Daytona International Speedway Feb. 15-23. Ideally suited for the racetrack, the headset will help improve sound clarity between racecar drivers and their crews.
The headset combines 3M’s proven Peltor hearing protection technology with Racing Electronics’ popular two-way radio technology. The new product offers clear delivery of the radio communication at extremely noisy racetrack environments with its noise-cancelling microphone, mini-flex boom microphone, deep ear-cups, and soft ear cushions. The newly designed product also offers new comfort features that will enhance the experience for racing team members and spotters, while sporting a fun, cool design.
