This is an intelligent noise-cancelling hearing aid that adopts a hybrid sound field of "bone conduction + air conduction." It abandons the traditional hearing aid logic of "mechanical amplification of sound" and instead uses "bone conduction + air conduction" to maintain the auditory ecosystem for people with hearing impairments.
The product is equipped with two ON Semiconductor professional hearing aid chips. Thanks to DSP technology, it can achieve intelligent noise cancellation and voice enhancement, making the sound clearer and more natural. External electrical signals are converted into sound wave vibration signals, which are transmitted to the auditory nerve through dual conduction via the temporal bone and ear canal. Additionally, it can utilize AI environmental adaptation functions to achieve directional sound restoration in noisy environments.
At the same time, this product has low power consumption, supports Bluetooth direct connection, and can easily adapt to various terminal audio sources. It also supports one-click mobile fitting and accessory pickup functions. The dual ear channels can be independently adjusted and have an ear monitoring function that perfectly suppresses howling and targets the needs of different individuals with bilateral hearing requirements.
In addition, the titanium alloy frame is lightweight and flexible, designed based on ergonomics. Its overall appearance resembles fashionable headphones, helping to eliminate the stigma associated with wearing traditional hearing aids and allowing users to return to social activities.
