What is Auracast technology?
Auracast™ broadcast* is bringing a whole new level of accessibility and convenience to your everyday life. With Bluetooth LE Audio, hearing aid users can now connect directly to public audio systems like TVs, announcement screens, or live performances - and stream sound straight into their hearing aids. Imagine getting real-time flight updates at the airport, listening to the gym TV without background noise, or clearly hearing a museum guide or church service. With just a tap, you can join an Auracast broadcast and enjoy crystal-clear, wireless audio wherever it’s available. As more places adopt this technology, Auracast is set to replace older telecoil loop systems, offering a more modern and seamless listening experience.
