- 1990: A solution for suppression
of feedback in hearing instruments is presented.
-
- 1991: The first fully automatic
hearing aid without a volume control containing two channel non-linear
sound processing is presented.
-
- 1994: A programmable completely-in-the-canal
instrument is introduced with two programs and volume control,
and is controlled by a remote.
-
- 1995: The digital hearing
aid platform which is based on the Digital Audio Processor provides
all the state-of-the-art features of conventional instruments
and are offered to 14 different audiological research centers
worldwide, in order for them to utilize the digital platform
in the development of new, innovative solutions for the hearing
impaired.
-
- 1996: A 100% digital behind-the-ear
hearing instrument is based on a new audiological rationale called
Adaptive Speech Alignment, which splits sounds in seven tone
bands and utilizes two different speech processors - one for
vowels and one for consonants.
-
- 1997: The new chip-set for
the digital behind-the-ear instrument with improved performance
allows for a 3-step acclimatization program, advanced feedback
