![]() ![]() ![]() It has constantly improved surgeons’ ability to place the electrode precisely where nerve stimulation will be most effective to provide access to a full range of sound.It has made the electrodes thinner and easier to insert into the cochlea to minimize damage to the delicate internal structures of the inner ear.It has constantly improved its electrodes in significant ways: ForwardFocus activates directional hearing with your Cochlear smartphone app when you want to decrease noise coming from behind you and focus on the face-to-face conversation in front of you.Ĭochlear also offers a smartphone app that makes it easy to change programs, adjust volume, bass and treble, and check battery life of the external sound processor without carrying a separate remote control.Ĭochlear has stayed at the cutting edge of electrode implant technologies since its inception.SCAN, the cochlear implant industry’s first automatic scene classifier, analyzes your surrounding and identifies the listening environment as one of six scenes, enabling SmartSound IQ to automatically optimize the sound and adjusts the program setting for that scene.SmartSound iQ enables dual microphones to capture speech and work together to filter out background noise.Its latest improvements are designed to provide easier management of program settings and better understanding of speech in challenging listening environments: ![]() A powerful chipset drives advanced sound processing software that’s tuned to help users understand speech.Ĭochlear has improved its sound processing technologies in lockstep with advances made by high-end hearing aid manufacturers. But instead of amplifying sound, they convert it into digital signals that travel through an electrode to the inner ear. The external sound processors for the cochlear implants look a lot like large hearing aids. Cochlear’s sound processing technology works with both its cochlear implants and its bone-conduction implants. ![]()
