Bernafon Alpha XT Hearing Aids Technology

Using Bernafon’s fastest chip and channel-free processing, the Bernafon Alpha XT can detect, analyse sound and then process the signal in real time.  Its Hybrid Technology‚ augments both speech understanding and listening comfort.

The Hybrid Technology‚ in Bernafon Alpha XT consists of four hybrid processing blocks. Each combines two smoothly interacting counterparts to perform in any listening situation effectively.

 

Bernafon’s new Hybrid Sound Care helps protect the hearing aid wearer from wind and contact noise. Wind noise protector analyses and reduces unwanted wind noise over 24 frequency bands. The clean signal is then fed into other hybrid systems.

Hearing aid users may experience contact noise problems when wearing glasses or brushing hair away from their face. Contact noise protector detects these noises and helps prevent their amplification.

 

 

 

 

 

Hybrid Noise Management: 2 systems working in tandem.

Smart Directionality continuously and independently adjusts its directional patterns to identify speech when noise is present.

Smart Noise Reduction – when smart directionality cannot sufficiently improve the audibility of speech in noise, smart noise reduction activates and actively reduces the background noise.

 

 

Hybrid Balancing: The hybrid balancer aims to allow for sound amplification that is personalised to the user’s preferences. It has two systems that can run independently or together:

Speech Balancer boosts speech signals in the presence of noise. The amount of boost applied can be adjusted to the user’s preferences.

Noise Balancer delivers higher listening comfort in noisy situations and is customisable to the user’s sensitivity to noise.

 

 

Hybrid Sound Processing uses two systems that aim to ensure there is no compromise in sound quality and speech audibility:

Time Domain Processing – gives fast speech signals the correct amount of gain.

Frequency Domain Processing – works for slower sounds such as noise and can recognise and isolate the specific frequency of the noise.

 

 

Hybrid Feedback Canceller – Proactive sound manager with static and dynamic feedback systems. These systems work together and monitor the excellent signal up to 126,000 times per second and actively remove any chance of feedback (whistling) before it has a chance to become audible.

 

 

 

 

Bernafon Alpha XT Hearing Aids APP

The New Bernafon App allows users to control and adjust their Bernafon hearing aids. The App also enables users to connect their hearing aids to other devices using the (IFTTT) protocol. For example, a user could get a notification in their hearing aids when the doorbell rings or a text message could be sent to a carer when they turn on their hearing aids. The app also has a useful find my hearing aid tool, which works through the phone’s GPS.

Remote control – users can change the hearing aid volume, change the program, mute, and check the battery level.

Find My Hearing Aids – If you cannot locate your hearing aids, the Comfort App integrates a convenient search function.

Internet of Things (IoT) – Using the IFTTT service, it is possible to connect hearing aids to IoT devices.

 

 

Bernafon Alpha XT has been made for iPhone (MFi) and the latest Android phones (Android 10 and above), meaning you can take calls or stream music directly from your mobile.

Bernafon Alpha XT works as high-quality stereo headphones operating a stable connection with minimal power consumption.

For older Android and other Bluetooth devices, a Bernafon SoundClip-A is required.
