Tired of traditional hearing aids sounding funny or making some sounds louder than others? Oticon Own is the world’s first in-the-ear hearing aid with an on-board Deep Neural Network (DNN)*. This means that as you wear your hearing aids, they learn how to better reproduce the sounds of the world around you. **

Oticon has trained its DNN on 12 million real-life sounds to give your brain more of the information it needs to make sense of sounds. This means that even when you’re in a complex listening environment — like a restaurant, or a meeting at the office — Oticon Own will help you navigate what you need to hear, and reduce your listening effort**, so it’s easier for your brain to take on other tasks.

* DNN is only available in Oticon Own 1, 2, and 3.
** Reduction in listening effort is measured with peak pupil dilation. Rumley et al. (2022). Oticon Own evidence. Oticon whitepaper
