Copenhagen, Denmark, 02 February 2017<\/strong>:\u00a0Oticon<\/u><\/a>, industry leader in advanced audiology and hearing aid technology, has announced new additions to its award-winning Opn hearing aid.<\/p>\n

Unveiled as the world\u2019s first internet connected hearing aid capable of connecting directly to a range of smart devices, the Opn family now features three performance levels to give consumers even more flexibility accessing Oticon\u2019s paradigm-shifting open sound experience.<\/p>\n

Built on the ultra-fast and precise Velox\u2122 platform, an expanded fitting range of up to 105 dB HL means that people with severe-to-profound hearing losses can now experience Opn\u2019s benefits. This includes access to multiple speakers even in complex and noisy listening environments, rapid noise reduction and speech clarity and a personalised listening experience.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe expanded Opn family takes our BrainHearing\u2122 technology to the next level with a unique combination of technologies that work together to expertly manage multiple speech and noise sources,\u201d says S\u00f8ren Nielsen, President, Oticon A\/S.\u00a0 \u201cBy giving the brain access to important sounds in noisy environments, Opn reduces listening effort and frees up mental energy.\u201d*<\/p>\n

Each of the hearing aids is capable of connecting to a wide range of smart devices through the Oticon ON App, allowing users to control Opn from their smartphone and connect to other internet-enabled devices. Users create \u201crecipes\u201d using the IFTTT.com service to interact with smart technologies such as smart doorbells that alert them when someone is at the door or to schedule low battery alerts, medicine reminders, weather reports and calendar appointments.<\/p>\n

Opn also offers a wide range of connectivity possibilities to communication and entertainment devices and services. Wireless, streamer-free connectivity turns Opn into a stereo headset, streaming sound and music from smartphones, TV, laptops and more.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe response of hearing care professionals and their patients to the introduction of Opn has been overwhelmingly positive,\u201d adds Nielsen.\u00a0 \u201cNow, with Opn\u2019s enhanced performance levels and new power options, we empower hearing care professionals to give even more consumers access to Oticon\u2019s groundbreaking open sound experience.\u201d<\/p>\n
