Smart Hearing Aid

The GN ReSound hearing aid acts like a Bluetooth headphone, receiving audio for iPhone calls, chats, music, movies and map navigation. There are also added features, including a Live Listen functionality that enables the Apple mobile device to act as a microphone that can be used to better pick up voices or sounds in a noisy environment. GN ReSound said its new product is the smallest wireless receiver-in-the-ear hearing aid it has yet released, but is powerful enough to deal with 90 percent hearing losses.
But this Apple accessory is not inexpensive, as list price is expected to be about $3,000. The product is due to be released before the end of the month. No word yet as to whether a version for Android devices is in development.
