Somerset, NJ March 30 - Oticon, Inc. today announced that a distinguished panel of international jurors awarded the "Red Dot Award" for superior design quality and innovative design to the company's new Oticon Delta hearing instrument. The groundbreaking new hearing instrument was among the top designs selected from over 5,000 entries for the Red Dot Award which is one of the most sought-after design awards worldwide.
New Oticon Delta features a revolutionary triangular design with sleek lines, hot colors and a brushed metallic surface and houses state-of-the-art digital technology that is aimed at boosting hearing clarity for a newer, younger generation of hearing aid users with mild to moderate hearing loss.
Delta's innovative design is made possible by placing its receiver into the ear canal at the end of a thin, transparent sound wire. This unique approach opened the way to design breakthroughs not possible before and has created a whole new category of hearing solutions. Combining the best of two worlds, Delta merges the cosmetic advantages of in-the-ear instruments with the technological possibilities of behind-the-ear devices.
The Red Dot Awards program was created in 1991 by the Essen Design Zentrum Nordrhein Westfalen to honor outstanding design quality. It is one of the leading and largest design competitions worldwide.
