Instead of relying on subjective “press the button when you hear this” tests, our technology reads how the brain responds to sound in real time at 6 times the standard rate of existing brain response based hearing tests. This makes hearing assessments faster, more reliable and accessible to people of all ages and abilities. Our innovation is a portable device that combines audio stimulation and EEG brain response measurement in one perfectly synchronized system. This is the first device of its kind globally. It is easy to use, does not require highly trained specialists and has the potential to bring high quality rapid hearing testing into clinics, retail stores, schools, community centers and underserved regions around the world. After winning the Innovation Prize at the World Congress of Audiology, validating our system with partners such as Horzentrum (University of Oldenburg) GN Resound and Specsavers and securing significant grants, we are now preparing the device for CE marking and clinical rollout.
