What are the Genesis AI hearing aids?
Starkey Genesis AI hearing aids are designed to support people with mild to severe hearing loss, utilising artificial intelligence (AI) to replicate the brain’s natural sound processing.
Launched in late October 2023, this innovative system features a completely re-engineered processor, sound, design, fitting software, and enhanced patient experience. These advanced devices deliver exceptional speech clarity, even in noisy environments, by continuously adapting to your surroundings.
Genesis AI is available with both rechargeable and disposable battery options.
Key features
- Starkey Neuro Processor: The smallest, most powerful processor in the industry, operating up to 4x faster with 6x more transistors than previous models. Equipped with a Deep Neural Network (DNN) accelerator, it uses AI and pattern recognition to adapt to more sound environments, offering unmatched clarity.
- Starkey Neuro Sound Technology: This system automatically adjusts the hearing aid over 80 million times per hour, reducing listening effort and optimising sound in any environment.
- Edge Mode+: An enhanced feature using DNN to automatically prioritise clear speech or comfort, dynamically adapting as environments change.
- Extended Battery Life: Genesis AI includes the longest-lasting rechargeable hearing aid (RIC RT) with up to 51 hours per charge, alongside other long-lasting, compact models.
- Discreet and Comfortable Design: Available in various styles (e.g., RIC, ITE, CIC, and IIC), the Genesis AI hearing aids are discreet and comfortable, ensuring that users feel confident and at ease while wearing them throughout the day.
Please note that features may vary based on the selected fitting style.
