TECH MUNCH 6: Phonak’s Stefan Launer: TOWARDS HOLISTIC HEALTHABLES

Stefan Launer, Senior Vice President of Audiology and Health Innovation at Phonak:

“The ear is a perfect place to monitor vital signs because it allows us to reliably measure core body temperature, cardiovascular parameters, respiration rate, and physical activity, with high precision. We see more and more applications emerging in this space. Integrating various sensor technologies in hearing aids would open new avenues to a more holistic model in hearing healthcare in a broader context of healthy living.”
