Hearing aid for the television
Hear and understand television better
How the TV hearing aid works
Watching TV 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, as hearing deteriorates, cozy TV evenings quickly become a nuisance. Intensive listening due to hearing problems leads to fatigue. In addition, poor sound quality, background noises that are too loud or a high dynamic range of film music and sound effects are common reasons why older people and people with hearing loss can no longer understand the sound of the television well.
This is where the OSKAR TV hearing aid from faller audio offers the ideal solution. The portable TV speaker amplifies the sound of the TV and filters out background noise so that dialog can be heard clearly and distinctly. This makes watching TV an unclouded pleasure again.
The OSKAR TV hearing aid was specially developed for people with hearing problems so that they can experience television in full sound quality again. The system consists of a transmitter (base station) and a receiver (loudspeaker), which are connected to each other via a wireless connection. Simply connect the base station to your TV set via a 3.5 mm audio connection or an optical audio output and position the portable speaker close to you.
Thanks to the dialog amplification of the TV hearing aid, it is easier to understand speech when watching TV. The loudspeaker specifically amplifies the important sound frequencies for a clear reproduction of conversations and speeches and filters out distracting noises.
With different hearing profiles, you can adjust the sound individually and set it to a comfortable volume for you. Other people in the room are no longer disturbed.
Enjoying television again at last
The story behind the OSKAR TV hearing aid
Marcell Faller, founder of faller audio, developed the OSKAR TV hearing aid to make television accessible again in full sound quality for people with hearing loss.
The personal motivation for this invention was his father, who could no longer enjoy watching television due to hearing problems. Understanding the dialog in particular became an increasing challenge for him and quickly led to exhaustion. In order to hear the sound better, he increased the volume of the television, but this resulted in other family members feeling disturbed.
Because hearing aids or other aids such as soundbars were not a solution, as they also only make the television sound louder, the idea for a hearing amplifier for televisions was born, which brings the speech-optimized television sound directly to the listening position for older people and the hearing-impaired.
Strong concept: innovative technology and simple operation
The OSKAR TV hearing aid impresses with its innovative technology, which faller audio has developed in recent years together with international research companies in the field of hearing acoustics and, above all, together with hearing-impaired people. The special voice optimization enables users to hear dialogues clearly again. It analyses the frequency bands in the TV sound that are important for speech, while disruptive background noise is dynamically filtered out and minimized.
Connecting and operating the device is child's play, as we have deliberately dispensed with unnecessary functions. Simply connect OSKAR to your TV without having to bother with complicated settings. The wireless speaker receives the sound wirelessly from the transmitter connected to the TV set. 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 an all-round rubber coating ensures a secure stand. 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 connection. This allows you to listen to the voice-dominated TV sound via headphones.
