Assistive listening products for professional & domestic use.
The AUDIOropa portfolio primarily comprises assistive listening solutions for public areas, or for professional portable applications to assist the hearing impaired. Solutions include induction loop systems, infrared transmission systems, and RF Transmission solutions.
Beyond signals as elementary as alarms and emergency calls, the program offers the hearing-impaired and the deaf access to spoken contributions in public areas, such as theaters, churches, courtrooms, and conferences and meeting rooms. The audio signals from hearing loop systems, infrared and radio transmission systems can be received with classic hearing devices or cochlear implant systems that are equipped with a T-coil, and with special hearing components from the AUDIOropa portfolio.
With the portable 2.4 GHz »xepton« tour guide and communication system, AUDIOropa provides the benefits of audiologic technology – crystal-clear speech reproduction, even during visits in acoustically difficult situations: significantly better understanding for the hard of hearing and those with normal hearing alike.
Using an inductive loop system, wearers of hearing-aids can pick up the signals emitted by electric/electronic audio sources (microphone or hi-fi systems) directly in their hearing aids or CI systems. As a result, they hear the sound without any annoying background noise, echo or reverberation. An outstanding advantage of using induction loop systems: no special receivers are required. All that’s needed is the hearing aid.
The AUDIOropa portfolio comprises inductive loop systems for the supply of audio signals for various range sizes – large and small.
Apart from the home environment, in which the wireless reception of audio signals via infrared light has long since become a popular alternative to the corresponding radio-frequency transmission systems, this technology proves superior to all other transmission methods for certain professional applications.
This applies in particular to venues and facilities, in which the confidentiality of the information exchanged there plays a decisive role, for example in courtrooms or conference rooms, and areas in which several transmission systems are operated parallel to one another in neighbouring rooms, such as in multiplex cinemas or in living quarters within social facilities.
In addition, infrared audio transmission systems have proven very valuable in schools and universities, in large auditoriums with partial signal coverage or in city centres where there is a very high amount of radio-frequency emissions in a multitude of frequencies.
Consistently following AUDIOropa’s guiding principle, Xepton includes hearing impaired people, hearing aid users and wearers of cochlear implants into the hardware concept. The receivers can be equipped with neckloops for direct inductive transmission to the hearing aid. Audio amplifying receivers with audio output jacks are also available, to which earphones or headphones can be connected.
