The new hearing aid generation 2022
Adapting to consumers' lifestyles and comforts, the hearing aid market is undergoing a transition to digital, creating prostheses that are miniaturized computers.
As appliances become smaller and more invisible, the first trend is to make them smaller and less visible. Since hearing aids and
mini-amps are more discreet and comfortable, this aspect is particularly important to patients.
Also on trend are
rechargeable hearing aids. These are lithium-ion-powered systems with a battery life of 40% longer than traditional models and up to 24 hours of continuous use. By using this technology, people do not have to constantly change their batteries or have them in reserve, such as on long road trips.
A number of
Bluetooth hearing aids have been developed in recent years thanks to advances in wireless technology. You can wirelessly stream music and audio directly to your TV, phone, and music player this way. Typically, Bluetooth hearing aids require an app to be used on Apple and Android devices.
Hearing aids using artificial intelligence use real-time machine learning algorithms to personalize the patient's hearing and create customized listening programs. A microphone captures sound, which is then processed locally by a digital signal processor inside the hearing aid.
The high-performance chips allow the hearing aid to incorporate more powerful processors and thus amplify only the frequencies for which the individual has a hearing loss. As a result, hearing aids are becoming increasingly personalized.
