Introducing ReSound LiNX 3D: The Future of Smart Hearing
August 7, 2017 Laurel Christensen, PhD I'm pleased to be able to introduce you to our latest product, ReSound LiNX 3D. Several years ago, we made a decision to go down a different wireless technology path than our competitors, and with good reason: wireless accessories and wireless systems were cumbersome and not widely used. Hearing aid users were required to wear something around their neck, they were bulky and not very discreet. In 2008, when we were looking into developing a wireless system, we knew that 2.4 GHz would be the way of the future, and we decided to develop our wireless at 2.4 GHz.

How Accurate are Environmental Classifiers in Hearing Aids?
April 21, 2017 Tao Cui, AuD, Jennifer Groth All modern hearing aids with any kind of automatic functionality use analysis of the acoustic environment. The most basic is the compression system, which uses level detectors to determine how much gain should be applied to the input signal according to the amplification scheme. However, when speaking of environmental classification, what we usually mean is the system by which the hearing aid decides what sort of listening situation it is in.

Wireless Technology: Where Have We Been? Where Are We Now? Where Are We Going?
August 22, 2016 Stephen A. Hallenbeck, AuD Within the last several years, many wireless technological advances have occurred within the hearing aid industry. These advances include the concept of near field magnetic induction, followed by Bluetooth (i.e., radio frequency transmissions, or RF), and other proprietary radio frequency transmissions.

Hearing Aid Directionality with Binaural Processing
May 23, 2016 Jennifer Groth, MA The fact that two ears are better than one is well-established. The human auditory system integrates information from both ears providing benefits in terms of loudness, localization, sound quality, noise suppression, speech clarity and listening in noise. The ability to selectively attend to particular sounds, like a single voice among many talkers, is one of the most amazing and significant benefits of binaural hearing.

ReSound's Directional Philosophy
April 18, 2016 John Nelson, PhD Dr. John Nelson: Today I will discuss how ReSound implements directional processing in our hearing aids. We know that directional hearing aids provide a significant benefit in laboratory settings. When conducting studies, we will typically place a listener in an audio sound booth in a controlled listening situation. An example of a controlled listening situation is where a speech signal comes from the front of the listener, and noise comes from the back. This setting does not represent a real-world situation. However, when we perform laboratory studies, we must control them so that we know what we are looking at and we can measure and evaluate the data. Therefore, when we obtain our results, we can go back and analyze what did or did not cause a directional benefit. Additionally, in a laboratory, the speech and noise may be spatially separated (i.e., they are not coming from the same direction). This is also a cue that allows directional hearing aids to work better, because they can focus in on different directions, being able to provide better audibility and better understanding from different situations.

Hearing Better in Noise: How ReSound Neuromorphic Technology Uses the Natural Power of the Brain
February 1, 2023 Andrew Dittberner, PhD Directional microphones in hearing aids can help people hear better in noise, provided specific conditions are met. But they can also interfere with a person’s listening intent when desired sounds are reduced. In this interview, Andrew Dittberner, Head of Research at GN Hearing, discusses how combining the strengths of technology with those of the human brain – a neuromorphic approach – creates a solution that helps hearing aid users hear better in noise without disconnecting them from their surroundings. This unique approach culminates in the ReSound OMNIA, which improves on the previous product generation with an astonishing added 4.36 dB signal-to-noise ratio for speech understanding in noise without limiting access to the surrounding soundscape.
