Starkey Edge AI 24 functions like the brain’s auditory cortex

Listening is a complex process that typically comes easily to those with “normal” hearing but can be challenging for those with hearing loss. Starkey Edge AI 24 leverages advanced technology, powered by the G2 Neuro Processor (their new processing chip), to stimulate the brain’s auditory cortex, helping to manage this challenge. This is made possible by classifying complex sound environments, enhancing speech clarity, and reducing background noise in real time, all driven by Edge’s advanced AI.

But, what does this actually mean for your hearing?  It simply means you will benefit from a more natural listening experience.  Combined with Neuro Sound Technology 2.0, a system that mimics the brain’s natural process, it will also give you more control and management of your soundscape.

When we look at this technology, it functions across three domains: Sensory, which figures out the listener’s surroundings; Subconscious, which handles tasks automatically in the background; and Conscious, which gives users enhanced control and flexibility over their hearing experience.

How does artificial intelligence help with your hearing?

AI in hearing aids simply makes the devices smarter and more personalised. For instance, with AI technology, hearing aids can automatically adjust their settings based on the environment, like switching from a noisy restaurant mode to a quiet conversation mode. This means users can enjoy clearer sound without constantly fiddling with buttons.

Plus, AI can learn from users’ preferences over time, adapting to their unique listening habits and enhancing their overall experience. It’s like having a little assistant that helps you hear better in different situations.
