Hearing aid innovation with no compromises
The new ReSound Vivia hearing aids deliver unparalleled sound quality in noisy environments and all-day comfort without compromising size or battery life. Central to this innovation is GN's unique human approach to AI, which models the brain's natural sound processing capability to create voice clarity in complex listening environments. GN's Intelligent Focus feature is distinctive in its ability to respond to the direction a person is looking, ensuring the AI enhances sounds based on the user's natural response to their environment. This proprietary technology provides a more natural and effortless listening experience, even in challenging situations like noisy restaurants or crowded venues.
Redefining professional collaboration for small spaces
As more organizations transition back to the office and hybrid work environments become the norm, the demand for efficient small meeting space solutions continues to grow. These spaces often pose unique challenges for video collaboration. Traditional solutions often struggle to capture all participants equally, particularly those seated closer to the screen, while some lack video conferencing equipment altogether. This imbalance can result in empty meeting rooms and gaps in communication, highlighting the need for solutions that provide clear, inclusive experiences for everyone, regardless of location.For more detailed information go to ReSound.com, Beltone.com, or Jabra.com.
