PISCATAWAY, N.J., July 2003 - Siemens Hearing Instruments introduces the INFINITI™ Professional family of hearing instruments. Based on the success of INFINITI, its predecessor that pioneered the world of programmable analog technology ten years ago, INFINITI Pro combines digital technology with Siemens proven results. INFINITI Pro also provides individuals with hearing loss a state-of-the-art, cost-effective alternative to programmable analog hearing aids.
"Hearing Care Professionals have used INFINITI over the past decade to improve the lives of individuals all over the world," said Pam Burton, director of Product Management, Siemens Hearing Instruments. "INFINITI Pro widens the utilization of digital technology in the cost effective, uncomplicated and dependable category. The new digital technologies significantly enhance the sound quality, directional microphone system and patient-friendly features, elevating INFINITI Pro to an improved level of hearing assistance."
The three key development strategies involved with the development of INFINITI Pro are reliability, simplicity and affordability.
Reliability
Built on a decade of strong, professional hearing care experience, the new INFINITI Pro is equipped with the following components:
· Digital, single-channel processing with additional frequency response shaping parameters
· Expanded dynamic range
· Microphone noise reduction
· Directional Microphone System available on ITE, HS and ITC models
· Switchless™ Telecoil, allowing users to conduct telephone conversations without having to manually adjust their hearing aids
Simplicity
With its consistent user interface, flexible frequency response, compression kneepoint, output control and programmable volume control, INFINITI Pro can be quickly and easily fit with extreme precision for each individual user. It is available in a variety of styles from the inconspicuous Micro-CIC™ (Completely-in-the-Canal) and to the sleek BTE (Behind-the-Ear). INFINITI Pro is the right choice for almost any type of hearing loss.
Affordability
Over the past few years, advances in digital technology have increased the prices of hearing instruments for both Hearing Care Professionals and individuals with hearing loss, often limiting each group's ability to purchase the devices. Further, even as programmable analog hearing instruments continue to meet the basic needs of many individuals with hearing loss, the technology is becoming outdated and often does not provide the same level of sound quality and capabilities as the newer digital counterparts. Siemens overcomes this challenge with INFINITI Pro by combining the high-end digital power and capabilities of digital hearing aids with the lower cost of the analog models. This allows Hearing Care Professionals to help more people find the tools to improve their hearing ability.
