Oticon Announces New miniRITE, SmartCharger, and CROS PX

SOMERSET, NJ – Oticon, Inc. continues to expand the Oticon More™ family to enable even more patients to benefit from the innovative hearing solution’s superior sound quality. More options — from the new miniRITE T with disposable batteries and the portable SmartCharger to new fitting options and a music-oriented signal processing program — allow hearing care professionals to better match each patient’s lifestyle, needs and preferences. For patients with single-sided deafness, Oticon also extends the Oticon CROS family with a new rechargeable Oticon CROS PX transmitter that is compatible with Oticon More.

The world’s first hearing solution to incorporate an on-board Deep Neural Network (DNN), Oticon More with BrainHearing™ technology works more like how the brain works because it learned through experience. This new approach to sound processing delivers a sound quality that clinical test results show 8 out of 10 people prefer.*

More Styles, More Options

The new Oticon More miniRITE T style, for patients who prefer disposable batteries, joins the existing rechargeable miniRITE R style. Both contain a telecoil and Bluetooth® Low Energy technology for device connectivity. The new MicroShell further expands patient options, offering an integrated, custom mold option for non-power receivers.

Patients can now choose to purchase a sleek portable charger in addition to the standard desktop charger. The new, easy-to-use Oticon SmartCharger allows patients to enjoy more life on the go while keeping Oticon More powered up, dry and protected. The SmartCharger includes a protective lid and built-in power bank for convenient, reliable charging without access to a power outlet. The drying function automatically removes moisture from the hearing aids.

Revolutionary Sound Experience for Single-Sided Deafness

The new rechargeable Oticon CROS PX solution joins the non-rechargeable Oticon CROS. TwinLink™ dual streaming technology in both solutions allows patients to access all relevant sounds in challenging listening environments and enjoy wireless streaming at the same time. In addition to Oticon More-compatibility, the new Oticon CROS PX transmitter is forward and backwards compatible with hearing aids used with the current Oticon CROS.

Optimal Fitting and Fine-tuning

Continuous improvements to Oticon Genie 2 enable hearing care professionals to fit and fine-tune Oticon More across in-clinic and remote visits. The new Fitting Assistant provides a guided questionnaire and pre-programed fitting adjustments. Genie 2 now includes new In-situ Audiometry for Oticon RemoteCare and new background noise level meter. The ProbeGUIDE™ integration supports correct insertion and placement of the probe tube for more accurate fittings.

The new MyMusic program is tailor-made to help patients rediscover their love of music. The music-oriented signal processing program captures the complex dynamics of music much better than attempting to apply ordinary speech processing strategies to music.

Oticon More is available in a range of attractive colors to match personal style preferences. For more information about the expanded Oticon More family and accessories, visit oticon.com.
