wireless
Users of Oticon hearing aids built on the Polaris platform technology will be able to enjoy hands-free communication using iPhone and iPad. In addition to streaming audio from iPhone and iPad, the Oticon More family can be used as a wireless headset so that users can speak hands-free on calls.
The 2-way hands-free communication will be made available for existing Oticon More hearing aids via a firmware update made by the hearing care professional. The 2-way hands-free communication will be made available with the upcoming Oticon launch mid-February; local availability may vary.
“We continuously look to introduce new ways to use modern technology to enhance the user’s experience of hearing aids, especially when it helps improve the ability to communicate.," said Rekha Stenberg Grover, Senior Vice President, Oticon Brand.
