subject: Digital Hearing Aids- The Technological Favor [print this page] Digital hearing aids are devices which enable the user to receive good quality sound. The technology used in these devices is very effective and reliable. Digital hearing aids convert the incoming analog sound waves to digital code by mathematical calculations, and amplify these sound waves for better output. The hi-tech methods of these aids ensure full accuracy.
One of the best characteristics of digital hearing aid is that its mechanism allows the user to adjust the device according to one's hearing problem. This can be done by connecting the device to a computer and setting the application according to the problem. Hearing aids have microphones which receive the sound from the environment and sends it to the ear without any noise and distortion. These digital hearing aids clear the sound through their inbuilt amplifiers, which produce good quality voice.
Digital hearing aid was first manufactured in 1987 by two manufaturers. But it did not do well in the market because of its large size and high battery drain. After a decade, digital hearing aids were relaunched in the market with small size and good battery. The superior technology of these devices helps the manufacturers to innovate these aids with advanced features.
