They enable you to sharply listen to sounds coming from different directions to the hearing aids, regardless of the environment or situation the user is in.
How they work:
• Acoustic Sensors:
These sensors analyse the characteristics of incoming sounds, such as amplitude and modulation, to identify different sound sources and their locations.
• Motion Sensors:
These sensors detect the wearer's movement, including walking, running, or even subtle head movements, and relay this information to the hearing aids.
Benefits of using acoustic and motion sensors:
• Improved Speech Understanding:
The hearing aids can prioritize speech in front of the wearer, even in noisy environments, while still allowing for awareness of surrounding sounds.
• Natural Sound Quality:
The combination of acoustic and motion sensors provides a more natural and realistic listening experience.
• Automatic Adjustment:
The hearing aids automatically adjust settings based on the wearer's activity and environment, so wearers don't have to manually change settings.
• Enhanced Hearing in Motion:
Signia Xperience hearing aids are designed to maintain clear speech understanding even when the wearer is moving, unlike some older hearing aid technologies
In essence, these sensors provide hearing aids with a 'sense' of the wearer's environment and activity, allowing for more intuitive and personalized sound adjustments.
