  • Oticon Play PX supports natural development because it gives access to the full sound environment

    At Oticon, we know that children with hearing loss need access to all relevant sounds in the sound scene.1 This is why we designed Oticon Play PX exclusively for children and teenagers. Its advanced technology provides a close-to-natural listening experience and gives your child access to vital input from all the meaningful sounds that are so important to their development.

    Childhood is a time of adventures, fun, and learning. Children of all ages develop from all the experiences they encounter.

    Without assistance, children with hearing loss miss out on important input from these experiences. They miss out on important sound details and experiences which help their brains learn and develop.

    This is why Oticon Play PX is designed to give your child full access to the sounds needed to experience every magical moment of childhood.

  • Tests prove Oticon Play PX improved the opportunities for participation

    We tested how Oticon Play PX supports children’s ability to hear and understand words in noise coming from different directions, to simulate a typical listening environment like a classroom.

    The test results proved that the hearing aids support communication with their peers.

    The results showed that Oticon Play PX significantly helps children to recognize and recall words, even when speech comes from multiple directions. This allows your child to participate freely in the many different activities and situations that children find themselves in – which are crucial to development, growth and learning.2

Rechargeable at home or on the go

Oticon Play PX rechargeable hearing aids are available with two charger options: the powerful desk charger and the portable SmartCharger.

However, your hearing care professional can give you Oticon Play PX with disposable batteries if you prefer.

Oticon Play PX is powered by a Deep Neural Network

Oticon Play PX contains a special type of artificial intelligence called a Deep Neural Network. It is the world’s first paediatric hearing aid to be powered by a Deep Neural Network ever!

The Deep Neural Network has learned to recognize sounds through experience, just like children’s brains naturally do. In fact, the Deep Neural Network is trained with 12 million real-life sound scenes – all so the hearing aid can reproduce sounds as precisely and naturally as possible.

You hear with your brain

Did you know that?

The brain needs access to the full sound scene to work properly.

That’s why your brain needs as much sound information as possible.
