Oticon
Oticon was founded in 1904 and is a member of the Big Six major hearing aid manufacturers. Oticon’s origin story reflects its slogan “People First”: Hans Demant founded the company to develop hearing technology, inspired by his wife who had hearing loss herself. From these beginnings, Oticon is committed to helping people "communicate freely, to interact naturally and to actively participate."

BrainHearing Technology
Oticon’s trademark BrainHearing Technology aims to compensate for the issues associated with hearing loss by maintaining the natural sound process in the brain and allowing both ears to work together to locate where the sounds originate.
BrainHearing Technology helps you concentrate on the sounds around you. At the same time, speech is given priority over other sounds to help the wearer distinguish voices from noise. Also, because each person's perceptions of sound are unique and personal, BrainHearing hearing devices can be programmed to accommodate these preferences with individual settings. The result is a naturally more effortless listening experience, even in the most demanding listening environments.
The Velox Platform
To date, Velox S is Oticon’s most powerful and advanced platform. It provides:
- Highly sensitive detectors that trigger changes in the acoustic environment 56,000 times a second.
- Proactive feedback management is supplied with signal processing algorithms.
- Improved rechargeable battery performance.
OpenSound Navigator
Many of Oticon's models are built on an open sound model to accept multiple speakers. This unique approach to signal processing opens up to your environment. The OpenSound Navigator works so fast and accurately that unwanted noise can be reduced in any situation.
The OpenSound Navigator operates quickly, regularly rebalancing the sound landscape while providing continuous access to all the sounds and voices involved. By helping the brain concentrate naturally on what they need, OpenSound Navigator technology allows users to return to what they have been missing and enrich their lives.

Oticon Opn Play
Opn Play allows kids to hear and learn better from the world around them, which is vital to their overall development. Open Play delivers optimal sound quality and improved understanding of speech even in the noisiest environments with multiple speakers, creating better listening conditions to meet the daily challenges of growing up.
The model helps to eliminate hearing aid feedback, which is a particularly irritating and distracting whistle sound that children hear when someone or something gets too close to their hearing aid, such as a hat or sports helmet. Open Play hearing aids can prevent feedback before it without compromising sound quality, allowing children to get back to playing and exploring the world around them.
