Audio Service G8 Platform

General Overview of the G8 Platform

The Audio Service G8 platform was introduced in 2024 as the newest generation in hearing aid technology. G8 is a further advancement over the previous G7 platform in terms of engineering, software, and user experience. The main goal of the platform is to provide individuals with hearing loss a more natural, personalized, and connected hearing experience. G8 stands out in the global market, especially with its multilingual support, advanced connectivity, and AI-based processing capabilities.

Technical Innovations

Chip Architecture and Hardware

  • G8 features a next-generation ultra-fast and energy-efficient processor. This chip offers 30% higher processing power and 40% more memory capacity than the previous generation.
  • Thanks to 7 nm manufacturing technology, devices are smaller, generate less heat, and offer longer battery life.

Audio Signal Processing and Algorithms

  • The new “AI Binaural Processor” algorithm in G8 maximizes spatial awareness and directionality by enabling real-time data sharing between two devices.
  • With “Adaptive SoundSense 2.0,” the platform automatically recognizes over 250 environments and user movements, applying the optimal hearing profile for each situation.
  • The “Active Speech Focus” feature significantly enhances speech intelligibility even in noisy environments.

Wireless Connectivity and Streaming

  • With Bluetooth LE 5.3, Made for iPhone (MFi), and ASHA (Android Streaming for Hearing Aids) support, high-quality direct audio streaming is possible to both iOS and Android devices.
  • Multi-device connectivity (e.g., connecting to two phones or a phone and a computer at the same time) is supported.
  • Improved streaming offers low latency and high sound quality.

Real-Time and Adaptive Features

  • A 9-axis motion sensor and advanced environment classifier allow the device to instantly respond to user movements and environmental changes.
  • “Dynamic Directionality” automatically optimizes microphone directionality according to user movement and environment.
  • The advanced feedback cancellation system minimizes whistling and unwanted noises even at high gain levels.

Software and App Integration

  • G8 is fully integrated with Audio Service’s new-generation mobile app. Users can remotely adjust device settings, track data, and receive remote support from their audiologists.
  • With “Remote Fitting Pro,” audiologists can program the device remotely and perform detailed fine-tuning.

Clinical Benefits

  • Speech Understanding in Noise: G8’s advanced environment recognition and Active Speech Focus algorithms significantly improve speech intelligibility in crowded and noisy environments.
  • Tinnitus Masking: The platform offers a new level in tinnitus management with multiple masking sounds and customizable relaxing sound options.
  • Data Logging and Personalization: G8 records user behaviors and hearing environments in detail, allowing audiologists to make highly personalized adjustments.
  • User Experience and Comfort: Automatic settings, ergonomic and compact design minimize the need for user intervention. With the 9-axis sensor, the device automatically adapts to the user’s lifestyle.
  • Remote Programming: Remote support and programming via the mobile app provide great convenience for both users and audiologists.
