Signia Introduces Hearing Aid Tech for Noisy Group Conversations
Signia launched a new technology that enables hearing aid wearers to hear all speakers in noisy group conversations clearly.
Signia launched a new technology that enables hearing aid wearers to hear all speakers in noisy group conversations clearly.
Since 1946, Knowles has innovated precision hearing assistance and speech intelligibility in the hearing health industry with microphones, speakers, and hearing aid components and accessories.
The data show hearing improvements in adults with acquired sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) and the “first known linkage of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics for a potential hearing restoration therapy,” according to Frequency.
Researchers and clinicians, along with company executives, will discuss current interventions for the treatment of acquired sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), unmet medical needs for hearing loss patients, and the potential of FX-322 to “transform the current standard of care.”

Read MoreTheir presentation, “Putting the ‘AI’ in patient-centered hearing health care,” will explore how new technological breakthroughs are putting the power of artificial intelligence directly into the hands of patients, giving providers an even greater opportunity to help them hear better and live better lives. The virtual presentation will be delivered on October 9, at 2 pm CEST.
Read MoreResearch suggests that listeners rely on stimulus envelope cues for robust speech comprehension in both quiet and noisy conditions. This study compares three premium hearing aids, including Widex MOMENT hearing aids with ZeroDelay™ technology, relative to how they might affect the central auditory system’s ability to encode the temporal envelope of the input sounds—and therefore possibly distort the quality of the temporal envelope code available for higher-level auditory processing.

Read MoreHearing aids continue to offer special programs for special listening needs. But just how good are these programs, and what types of preferences do hearing aid wearers have when using them? This study compares two special programs with the Universal program in Widex EVOKE hearing aids. Along with some revealing insights into fitting individual patients, the results demonstrated that both special programs performed the job they were designed to do, and the overall study shows the potential benefits of providing special programs for special listening situations and individual preferences.
