What is bluetooth technology and is it available in hearing devices?
Bluetooth is a technology that allows two electronic devices to connect wirelessly. The current bluetooth technology available in hearing devices is meant for cell phone use. If you have a bluetooth compatible cell phone, you can connect to the bluetooth adapter in your hearing device and talk on your cell phone without ever taking the phone out of your pocket. The signal is received into your hearing device and a small microphone in the adapter picks up your voice as you talk. If your computer, television, DVD player or CD player is bluetooth compatible, then you could have a wireless connection right into your hearing device. The next phase in bluetooth technology is for improved hearing in noise. If you go to a restaurant or large group gathering with a friend, you give the person a small lapel mic that can clip to that person’s shirt/blouse so that your friend’s voice is transmitted wirelessly into your hearing device. Even people who hear normally will be able to benefit from this
