Digital technology
Thanks to increasingly small micro-processors, digital technology has been applied to hearing systems. Digital hearing instruments are programmed by a hearing care professional via a computer. Within the hearing instruments, acoustic signals are transformed at high speed and with great precision into a binary code. This allows much more complex calculations and adjustment of the amplified signal than is possible with old technology. It gives greater flexibility in providing individualized solutions to hearing loss, and allows the addition of features which give the instruments higher value across a greater number of listening situations.
These hearing aids deliver the best possible sound most adoptable to different environmental conditions.
