Hearing Loop
The hearing aid industry has been using hearing loop systems for many years to help people with hearing loss participate more fully in conversations, presentations, and events. A hearing loop wirelessly transmits audio signals via a magnetic field, which is picked up directly by hearing aids with a T-setting (telecoil), without the need for any additional equipment.
This trusted technology makes it possible to deliver clear sound—without echo or background noise—making it ideal in spaces where acoustics or distance hinder speech intelligibility. Think of churches, theaters, service counters, or meeting rooms. With a well-installed hearing loop, inclusive communication becomes not just achievable, but second nature.
Even during your event or service, it’s important that your message is heard.
How does a hearing loop work?
A hearing loop consists of a copper wire installed around a room or counter. Using a special amplifier, the sound from a microphone, presentation system, or music installation is converted into a magnetic field. Hearing aids with a T-setting (telecoil) can pick up this field directly and convert it into clear sound, perfectly tuned to the wearer. The result? The speaker is instantly intelligible—without disruptive echo, background noise, or loss due to distance. Users don’t need to wear or connect anything extra: a single switch on the hearing aid is all it takes to listen in. A reliable and discreet solution for anyone who wants their message to truly be heard.
Examples of applications
Churches and houses of worship
Make services and gatherings understandable for everyone, ensuring that no one feels excluded due to hearing loss.
Meeting and conference rooms
Give everyone at the table equal access to what’s being said, even in large or acoustically challenging spaces.
Examples of applications
Theaters and concert halls
Offer visitors the best possible listening experience, so they can fully enjoy performances without needing the volume turned up.
Counters and receptions
Ensure clear communication at service desks in town halls, hospitals, or theaters—even when there’s a screen or distance in between.

How does it work?
An unlimited number of Auracast™ receivers within range can join a broadcast. The transmitter—such as a microphone, sound system, smartphone, television, or tablet—sends a high-quality broadcast to the receiver, which can be headphones, earbuds, or a hearing aid. As an interim solution, the audio can also be sent to a smartphone or smartwatch if your earbuds, headphones, or hearing aid don’t yet support Auracast™.
Examples of applications
Room amplification
Locations using public address (PA) systems—such as airports, cinemas, lecture halls, conference centers, houses of worship, and more—can offer a much better audio experience. Visitors can receive the PA audio directly in their own Bluetooth® earbuds with Auracast™ broadcast audio or hearing aids. When used in this way, Auracast™ broadcast audio functions as a high-quality, cost-effective, next-generation assistive listening system (ALS), improving the audio experience for visitors both with and without hearing loss.
Silent spaces
Public spaces with silent television screens—such as airports, gyms, and waiting rooms—can offer a more enjoyable viewing experience. Visitors can use their own Bluetooth® earbuds with Auracast™ broadcast audio or hearing aids to listen to the television’s audio feed.
Examples of applications
Multilingual support
Public venues offering simultaneous interpretation services—such as conference and meeting centers—can provide an improved listening experience. Attendees can use their own Bluetooth® earbuds with Auracast™ broadcast audio or hearing aids to listen to audio in their preferred language, making it easier to participate in events held in multiple languages.
Tour guide systems
Locations offering guided tours—such as museums, convention centers, and tourist attractions—can greatly enhance the visitor experience. Guests can use their own Bluetooth® earbuds with Auracast™ broadcast audio or hearing aids during the tour, ensuring a more engaging and personalized experience.
silent room
The events and conference industry is discovering the power of silent audio solutions via personal devices. With this technology, audio can be streamed directly to smartphones or wireless earbuds—without the need for speakers or hearing loops. Ideal for quiet spaces, museums, churches, trade fairs, or silent discos.
Using their own headphones or a receiver—or via a simple app or QR code—each visitor gains access to the correct audio stream, tailored to the program or location. This allows users to control the volume, choose the language, or even select the content—all through their own phone and familiar earbuds. Discover how this solution not only brings peace to shared spaces, but also offers maximum flexibility for both organizers and visitors.
Even during your event or in breakout areas, a silent room can make a difference.
