Basic Technology
Some of the basic features of most hearing aids include:
- Multiple channels – more channels offer the ability to fine-tune the hearing aid’s amplification response (frequency response) to your exact hearing loss
- Feedback management – eliminates feedback (or whistling) as it happens for a comfortable listening experience
- Volume control – enables the hearing aid’s volume to be adjusted quickly and easily depending on where you are. After all, a library is different to a concert!
Advanced Technology for Challenging Situations
Advanced Technology for Challenging Situations
Advanced hearing aids use directional microphone and noise reduction technology to improve your speech clarity in challenging situations, whether it’s indoors in a busy restaurant or outside playing golf. Available technologies include:
- Automatic and Adaptive directionality – in background noise the hearing aid focuses on who you want to hear by cleverly switching from an all-around mode to a directional mode (focusing to the front) automatically reducing background noise.
- Super directionality – in high noise situations the hearing aids activate a super directional system that provides a narrow sound beam to the front of you reducing noise from all other directions
- Wind noise reduction – reduces the unpleasant sound of wind noise when you are outside or driving in the car with an open window
- Transient noise reduction – provides a comfortable listening experience for you by eliminating sudden loud noises such as a door slamming, cutlery dropping.
Advanced Technology to Enhance Personalisation
Advanced hearing aids automatically adapt by identifying the specific acoustic environment you are in and adjusting the hearing aid’s settings to optimise sound clarity and quality. For example, if the hearing aid identifies music it will transition to a setting to enhance the quality of the music.
Other technologies to enhance personalisation include:
- Trainability – you can fine-tune the hearing aid to your specific needs in your everyday listening environment and over-time it learns your preferences and applies these automatically
- Remote Controls – to give you ultimate manual control over your hearing aids, dedicated remote controls or smartphone apps can be used to control your hearing aids
Accessories for full control and connectivity
There are many accessories available to help you get the most out of your hearing aids and stay-tuned. These can include:
- Bluetooth Streamers stream audio from connected Bluetooth-enabled devices directly to your hearing aids. Receive crystal-clear sound from your phone, television or music player.
- Smartphone apps that really personalise your hearing aid experience. What looks like texting is actually you making adjustments to your hearing aids.
- Remote controls to give you ultimate control over your hearing aids enabling you to discreetly adjust the hearing program and volume of your hearing aids.
- Chargers that can be used to recharge compatible batteries saving you money and helping the environment.
