Daily Life
On many of our internet pages, we describe the technical features used in our hearing instruments.
This page will give some examples where these features are useful in daily life.
We describe an average day in the life of an average hearing instrument wearer, whom we call Ms Meyer.
|
After getting up in the morning, Ms Meyer puts in her hearing instruments. They are easily turned
on by using the battery door switch and do not produce any whistling sound when she inserts them
into her ears.
|
|
Ms Meyer enjoys breakfast on her garden terrace. Her instruments fit very comfortably,
and no annoying background noise is disturbing the peaceful morning.
|
|
|
After breakfast, Ms Meyer decides to visit a friend in her shop downtown.
Putting on her hat, she is not bothered by any irritating feedback.
|
|
When Ms Meyer enters the shop, her friend is vacuuming.
Her hearing instruments are picking up both the sound of the vacuum cleaner and her friend's voice. Ms Meyer
can clearly hear her friend and enjoy the conversation without difficulties.
|
|
|
When Ms Meyer and her friend walk to a nearby coffee shop, the automatic adaptive microphone of
her hearing instruments allows a relaxed conversation in spite of all the traffic noise that surrounds them.
|
|
Back home, Ms Meyer receives a phone call. The voice on the phone is easy to understand.
The listening situation is so natural during the call that she forgets that she was
wearing her hearing instruments.
|
|
|
Ms Meyer’s favourite exercise is cycling. She needs to wear her hearing instruments during the ride so
that she can hear the traffic. During her evening ride it became rather windy, but thanks to the wind
noise reduction feature, her hearing instruments do not produce any annoying sounds.
|
|
In the evening Ms Meyer goes to the opera house. As she is very keen on classical music, she was glad when her
dispenser suggested a dedicated listening program for music.
