Innovative headset developed for hard-of-hearing
Powerful Bluetooth development tool helps cut the size and cost of innovative
  headset for hard-of-hearing 

A powerful Bluetooth development tool has helped Sound ID to commercialize an
innovative headset for the hard of hearing, which employs wireless
communications to link an in-ear module with a remote microphone.  

Sound ID's Personal Sound System looks like a small Bluetooth mobile phone
headset. However, inside the device is a DSP that can be configured by an
audiologist, or the user, to amplify sound based on individual preferences.
The Bluetooth capability allows the ear module to link with a remote
microphone that can be positioned to improve signal-to-noise ratio. It also
acts just like a standard Bluetooth headset for a mobile phone, automatically
switching from continuous amplification mode, to 'hands-free mode' when a
call is in progress.
