Hearing aid for the television
Hear and understand television better
How the TV hearing aid works
Watching television can be a wonderful way to relax and leave everyday life behind. It is also a popular leisure activity and welcome entertainment for older people. However, when hearing deteriorates, cozy evenings in front of the TV can quickly become a nuisance.Intensive listening due to hearing problems leads to fatigue. In addition, poor sound quality, excessive background noise, or a high dynamic range of film music and sound effects are common reasons why older and hard-of-hearing people no longer understand the sound of the television well.
The OSKAR TV hearing aid from faller audio offers the ideal solution. The portable TV speaker amplifies the sound from the television and filters out background noise, so that dialogue can be heard clearly and distinctly. This makes watching television an uninterrupted pleasure once again.
The OSKAR TV hearing aid was developed specifically for people with hearing problems, enabling them to enjoy television with full sound quality again. The system consists of a transmitter (base station) and a receiver (speaker), which are connected to each other via a wireless connection. Simply connect the base station to your TV via a 3.5 mm audio jack or optical audio output and position the portable speaker close to you.
The TV hearing aid's dialogue enhancement feature makes it easier to understand speech while watching television. The speaker specifically amplifies the important sound frequencies for clear reproduction of conversations and speeches and filters out distracting noises.
With different hearing profiles, you can customize the sound and set it to a volume that is comfortable for you. Other people in the room will no longer be disturbed.
Finally enjoying television again
The story behind the OSKAR TV hearing aid
Marcell Faller, founder of faller audio, developed the OSKAR TV hearing aid to give people with hearing loss access to television with full sound quality again.
The personal motivation for this invention was his father, who was no longer able to enjoy television due to hearing problems. Understanding the dialogue in particular became increasingly challenging for him and quickly led to exhaustion. To hear the sound better, he turned up the volume on the TV, but this resulted in other family members feeling disturbed.
Because hearing aids and other aids such as soundbars were not a solution, as they only make the TV sound louder, the idea arose for a hearing amplifier for televisions that brings speech-optimized TV sound directly to the listening position for older people and those with hearing impairments.
Strong concept: Innovative technology and extremely simple operation
The OSKAR TV hearing aid impresses with its innovative technology, which faller audio has developed in recent years in collaboration with international research companies in the field of hearing acoustics and, above all, with hearing-impaired people. The special voice optimization feature enables users to hear dialogue clearly again. It analyzes the frequency bands in the TV sound that are important for speech, while dynamically filtering out and minimizing distracting background noise.
Connecting and operating the device is child's play, as we have deliberately avoided unnecessary functions. Simply connect OSKAR to your TV without having to worry about complicated settings. The wireless speaker receives the sound wirelessly from the transmitter connected to the TV. An on/off rotary control with integrated volume control and a button for the voice filter ensure simple, intuitive handling.
The OSKAR also impresses with its attractive, minimalist design. The housing is made of high-quality aluminum. Dirt-repellent speaker covers protect your OSKAR from dirt and damage, while a rubber coating around the edge ensures a secure footing. A practical carrying handle allows you to listen to the TV sound wherever you need it in your home. For undisturbed TV enjoyment, your OSKAR has an additional headphone jack. This allows you to listen to the speech-automated TV sound through headphones.
