Cubex Weekly TIP // Machine Learning Hearing Technology
THIS WEEK'S TIP:MACHINE LEARNING HEARING TECHNOLOGY
On this week's TIP, Senior Audiologist and MD of Cubex, Adam Shulberg talks about a new hearing technology that was launched this summer by Danish developer, Widex. The Widex EVOKE™ is based on an entirely new chip platform and is the first hearing instrument to feature advanced machine learning in real time.
Hearing happens in real-life.It is dynamic and ever-changing.
- Adam Shulberg, Senior Audiologist & MD, Cubex Machine learning hearing aid technology learns directly from the wearer’s usage behaviours, real-time input, preferences and listening experiences. It is smart hearing aid technology that never forgets. It remembers all preference changes made by the wearer in different situations and intelligently applies them to similar situations.
Why is this a big deal?
At Cubex, our independence allows us to recommend innovative hearing solutions that are most appropriate for and relevant to you from a variety of leading labs, including Widex.
The latest chipset in Widex EVOKE™ has more connections, more processing power and more flexibility than any platform ever produced by Widex. It is the first hearing aid solution to enable machine learning capabilities giving wearers the ability to interact with the technology. It features intuitive new controls that guide each wearer to their desired listening experience.
This means that the wearers hearing experience with the technology can continue to evolve outside of the clinic and become even more personalised and highly relevant to the wearer in their real lives.Furthermore, data generated by each wearer’s choices is used anonymously by researchers to learn more about how wearers prefer to hear in millions of different listening situations enabling the development of more precise algorithm’s for ongoing firmware updates, moving the evolution to better hearing from the lab and into the real world.
