Technology

Their latest technology is based on the Dynamic Environment Control System^™, or DECS^™, platform. It uses a combination of systems to ensure True Environment Processing^™, where analysis and adjustments of the amplification happen in real-time. Five hero features lead the way:

• Continuous Environment Detection
  analyzes the environment with high-speed and precision.
• Dynamic Noise Management^™
  or DNM^™ effectively removes noise without adversely affecting speech.
• Dynamic Amplification Control^™
  or DAC^™ continuously measures the speech-to-noise ratios and directs the information to Dynamic Speech Processing^™.
• Dynamic Speech Processing^™
  or DSP^™ accurately amplifies the signal based on level and the dynamic environment information received from DAC^™.
• Dynamic Feedback Canceller^™
  or DFC^™ eliminates feedback signals at high speed, so that feedback does not become an issue for users.

The benefits of these features allow for

• improved speech understanding in challenging listening situations
• provides maximum listening comfort in highly noisy places
• reduces listening effort
• assures that whistling sounds do not become an issue
