Get smart on it
A hearing tech startup has launched AI-powered glasses designed to help people with hearing loss by integrating hearing assistance technology into eyewear frames. Unlike traditional hearing aids that use directional microphones, the glasses use artificial intelligence to distinguish voices from background noise and amplify speech while reducing unwanted sounds, with an open-ear design that contains sound to the wearer. The glasses weigh 34 grams, offer 10-12 hours of battery life, start at $999, and are available through the startup's website and select eye care providers in the U.S. The product addresses the cost, comfort, and stigma associated with traditional hearing aids by making hearing care more accessible through smart eyewear technology.
