Starkey Edge AI
The Starkey Edge AI represents the latest advancement in hearing technology, processing sound at the speed of natural hearing. At The Audiology METHOD, we offer this innovative solution to help patients experience clearer, more natural sound across all listening environments. Our audiologists are ready to guide you through the features and benefits of Edge AI to determine if it matches your hearing needs and lifestyle.
Technology Overview
Edge AI's Neuro Sound Technology 2.0 processes sound through three distinct areas that mirror natural hearing. The sensory system maps your listening environment, while subconscious processing handles continuous background adjustments through Sound Manager. The conscious control area puts additional flexibility in your hands, allowing for personal adjustments when needed. This comprehensive approach delivers improved speech clarity and reduced background noise in real-time.
The G2 Neuro Processor, featuring a fully integrated neural processing unit (NPU), powers these advanced capabilities. This processor works like the brain's auditory cortex to classify complex soundscapes and enhance speech while reducing unwanted noise. With 30% more accuracy at identifying speech and a 6dB reduction in low-level noise compared to previous technology, the Edge AI provides clearer sound across various listening environments – from quiet conversations at home to busy social gatherings.
