О Phonak

RogerDirect is an industry-first from Phonak that allows Roger microphones to stream directly to the hearing aids. After a simple installation of the receiver Into the hearing aid, clients benefit from the proven performance of Roger, in noise and over distance¹. This major innovation makes Roger technology easier to use and more attractive for a broader group ranging from mild to profound hearing loss.

Roger technology makes use of intelligent and adaptive algorithms that continuously measure and precisely analyze noise levels to keep the Roger signal clearly audible above the background noise. This advanced dynamic behavior has led to significant improvements in speech recognition in noise, especially at higher noise levels. Hearing aid users understand almost 10 times better with Roger technology in noise and over distance than people with normal hearing.¹

MultiBeam Technology enables clients to experience exceptional speech understanding in group conversations such as business meetings or in noisy restaurants. By utilizing multiple microphones, beams are created in six directions, covering 360°. It then calculates and compares the signal-to-noise ratio for all six directions and automatically selects the beam with the best clarity.  Speech understanding improves up to 61% in a group conversation in 75 dBA of noise compared to using hearing aids alone²

Unique to Roger and fully automatic, the MultiTalker Network allows several Roger microphones to be used together, providing hearing impaired listeners with access to multiple talkers in any situation.
