Shared software platform
All our fully digital hearing instruments share
the same, patented software-based technology, with
its unprecedented versatility and sound processing
power. And both the Danavox and ReSound lines
include the most sophisticated digitally
programmable technology available in non-digital
hearing instruments: multi-band, full dynamic range
compression.
The advantages of digital technology are well
accepted. Prof. Dr. Jürgen Kiessling of the HNO
Clinic at the Justus-Liebig University in Giessen,
Germany comments that:
"The biggest advantage of digital technology
in hearing instruments compared with analog
technology is that digital technology allows more
sophisticated signal processing strategies in the
hearing instrument. The most common complaint of
the hard-of-hearing population is that they don't
have good communication ability in noisy
environments or in group conversations. It's
particularly in those situations that digital
technology will be able, and is already able to
provide better benefits to people. One of the
major advantages of digital technology is the use
of a digital feedback suppression system which can
not be realized with analog technology."

GN ReSound - The Technology
Leader
The GN ReSound software-based platform technology
has made it possible to implement a unique 3D
digital technology.
This technology features a host of advanced
capabilities, such as a Digital Dynamic
Directionality system that combines Adaptive
Directionality with Active Microphone Matching to
ensure optimum speech clarity in background over the
instrument’s entire lifetime.
The exclusive “LASER” system provides superior
sound quality, speech clarity, sharpness and
listening comfort using 64-band Spectral Enhancement
with 14-band syllabic noise reduction. |
