The Philippines’ pioneer of hearing care, Manila Hearing Aid, and their long-term partnership with the globally-renowned hearing aid technology provider, Phonak, launched their newest platform to upgrade their Audeo hearing aid series. This exemplifies innovation in the field of hearing care.
Manila Hearing Aid spearheaded the launch with its General Manager Dr. Liza Abaño-Robles, the first resident Filipino audiologist and an internationally board-certified audiologist by the American Board of Audiology, as one of its representatives.
Phonak has always been an integral part of Manila Hearing Aid and shares their belief of providing quality hearing care for the Philippines, working together in launching an event for Phonak’s latest platform held in EDSA Shangri-La Hotel last Feb. 22, 2023. It was attended by top media representatives.
The Phonak Lumity platform is available to both Audeo Lumity and Audeo Life Lumity hearing aids. Audeo Life Lumity is the world’s first waterproof hearing aids while Audeo Lumity is the second generation of the world’s first rechargeable hearing aids. The entire Lumity hearing aid series are all streamlined with the myPhonak application for health tracking, catering to full convenience. It is also universally compatible with Bluetooth devices for hands-free calls with loved ones.
What makes Lumity Special? (SmartSpeech Technology)
Phonak’s Smartspeech Technology is integrated into all Lumity hearing aids which aims to reduce the patient’s effort in listening and improve clarity of sound within challenging environments.
It comprises two new major features for speech understanding—Stereozoom 2.0 and SpeechSensor. StereoZoom 2.0 is trained to ease listening focus by amplifying the strength of focus to a source of sound as the noise level increases. SpeechSensor allows for automated detection of where the speech signal is coming from, increasing understanding by 15 percent and reducing listening effort by 11 percent.
AutoSense OSTM 5.0 controls SmartSpeechTM, balancing comfort with speech understanding as it accurately identifies a sound environment through artificial intelligence, optimizing the other features of Lumity.
Achieving a better understanding in listening has never been easier with the new Audeo Lumity series, and these innovations allow for meaningful conversations in day-to-day life for those hard of hearing.
The latest in hearing care technology is available now and distributed in all clinics of Manila Hearing Aid. To get further details about the Audeo Lumity hearing aids, head to their website.
