Oticon Real 2 Rechareable Hearing Aids

Your hearing matters

When hearing works like it should, your brain gets the rich input it needs to understand the sounds around you. But without the real sounds, your brain has to work harder to fill in the gaps, which can be tiring.

Oticon Real hearing aids give you access to your full sound scene using technology that supports how your brain naturally works. Because your hearing matters when it comes to being at your best.

With Oticon Real 2 Rechargeable Hearing Aids you can “Stay Sharp in the Real World”. In march 2023 world leading Danish manufacturer Oticon have launched their latest flagship model Oticon Real to the global market. It introduces a new sound processing platform called Real Sound Technology ™ which is powered by the Polaris R™ chip platform.

Oticon Real builds upon Oticon More by providing you access to all the relevant sounds with exceptional balance and clarity – while also protecting you from sudden disruptive sounds. This enables you to remain confident, focussed and sharp in the real world.

Brain Hearing™ Technology

Our world is full of rich, complex and unpredictable sounds. Leading research by Oticon shows that we need to provide our brains with access to all meaningful sounds, not just speech. The deep neural network (DNN) of the Polaris R chip platform has been trained with 12 million real life sound scenes. Through machine learning it instantly rebalances any sound scene you are in so that Speech Sound is preserved from any direction. Environmental sounds including sudden sounds are present but rebalanced so that they are not overly invasive.

 Real Sound Technology™  “Helps Users Stay Sharp in the Real World”

Oticon Real utilises a deep neural network with the capacity for machine learning. The system has been trained with 13 million real life sound scenes and has learned the ability to rebalance any sound scene you go into. It provides access to distinct streams of speech coming from all directions even in noisy environments.

 Environmental sounds are rebalanced in a manner that they provide context without being overly invasive. This supports your brains natural ability to switch attention when desired and attend to the speech or environment more optimally.

The following features contribute to “Real Sound Technology:

More Sound Optimiser ™

Eliminates the risk of feedback by “proactively” suppressing feedback whilst preserving amplification. Even thwarts feedback usually caused by provocative activities around the ears such as hats or glasses on and off.

More Sound Intelligence™ 2.0

A balanced sound scene with access to all the relevant sounds. Now includes Wind & Handing Stabiliser.

More Sound Amplifier™ 2.0

Extremely fast high resolution amplification that follows changes in the sound environment. It now includes Sudden Sound Stabiliser.

New Sudden Sound Stabiliser™

In every-day life there’s many thousands of sudden disruptive sounds both loud and soft. A loud disruptive sound can be cutlery or crockery clattering and a soft disruptive sound can be tapping a keyboard for example.

Sudden Sound Stabiliser™ makes these sounds available to your brain, but not disruptive. It is fast and precise enough to instantly detect when a sudden sound occurs and present it in a balanced non-invasive manner.

For example, you want to be able to hear the sound of your indicators clicking without it stealing your focus or chop vegetables without it distracting you from conversation with your dinner guests. With Oticon Real hearing aids you can stay aware of what’s going on around you without compromising on your comfort or access to speech.

Sudden Sounds Stabiliser works by being very frequency specific and fast so there’s minimal gain reduction therefore loss of speech information. This has been proven to significantly reduce listening effort helping you stay engaged in the conversation. Strikes the right balance and can be personalised to your unique sound preferences.

Wind and Handling Noise Prevention

Oticon Real 2 boasts the world’s first “wind and handling” noise reduction feature. Wind noise refers to the “roaring” sound introduced into hearing aids when wind rushes past the microphones. Handling noise refers to sounds generated from touching near the hearing aid such as hair rustling the microphones or when glasses are taken on or off.

In traditional hearing aid’s there is typically a reduction in a broad band range of amplification to reduce such noise. Consequently, whilst the amplification is supressed there is a loss of valuable acoustic information. Invasive wind noise is one of hearing aid wearers biggest complaints. Enjoying a conversation on a windy day can be a challenge. You want your hearing aids to help you understand your friend whilst preventing the wind noise from being disruptive. New Oticon Real provides the solution.

The wind and handling stabilising feature in Oticon Real detects and cleans up wind and handling noise 500 times per second. It selects the microphone with the cleanest sound input so as to prevent disruptive sound from entering the system. It then reduces the remaining wind and handling noise from the other microphone, but only in the frequencies affected by the noise.A cleaner sound is then passed onto More Sound Intelligence 2.0 helping you receive better access to speech in windy environments.
