AudioTelligence has announced a new product concept that, for the first time, integrates assistive listening technology into an earbud charging case.


In what would be a world-first combination of hearing technology with earbud charging, the concept addresses the challenges faced by many people with hearing impairment in social situations where conventional hearing aids may fall short. With a sleek and modern design, the charging case has been designed to better align with the form factor of popular wireless earbud cases.


AudioTelligence said that the case has been designed to be both user-friendly and appealing because it hopes that the discreet and modern design will encourage wider adoption of hearing technology integrated into consumer products.


Users will no longer need additional hardware or accessories: help with hearing better becomes available in a device that they already carry with them. With this practical solution to a common problem, AudioTelligence said that it wants to ‘revolutionize’ the assistive technology market.


This concept capitalizes on the growing popularity of TWS earbuds as cutting-edge consumer accessories and takes advantage of the blurring lines between consumer tech and professional hearing devices.

Powered by AudoTelligence's, the assistive listening devices within the earbud charging case use blind source separation (BSS) to process audio signals from multiple microphones. This technology separates each source of sound with a consistent spatial location into its own distinct channel of audio. The result - a remarkable capability for individuals with hearing loss to seamlessly follow the conversation.
