Bettear SHOW

A Wi-Fi-based assistive listening solution designed to enable hard-of-hearing individuals to participate in live events, such as concerts and lectures, with ease, allowing them to enjoy the experience just like everybody else.

Bettear SHOW connects directly to the audio source, such as a microphone or a sound console, effectively sampling the sound in real-time while overcoming reverberant environments and background noise. It then distributes the audio over a designated WiFi network to personal smartphones with low latency. Through the Bettear App, audio is streamed directly to the user’s hearing-aids, cochlear implants, or any other earpiece/accessory.
