We have successfully developed a high quality, robust hearing aid which is effective across a wide range of hearing loss. Most significantly, it is available at a cost which enables maximum benefit to be achieved, particularly for children in developing countries where limited funds are available for this essential work and those with hearing impairment cannot afford a normal hearing aid.
The “SoundSeeker” is effective for mild to severe hearing loss. The hearing aid contains an integral rechargeable battery that recharges in sunlight using its built-in solar panel. The key benefit is the significantly reduced lifetime cost reduction (no battery costs) and is ideal for children, the elderly, the handicapped and those living in remote rural areas. The unit is virtually maintenance free compared to normal hearing aids, as it requires no further battery replacement. The financial savings over its lifetime are substantial, with very low support costs and no battery costs.
