Infrared Hearing Assistance
With these systems an Infrared signal is sent by a transmitter connected to the sound system in your venue. This radio signal transmission can then be picked up by receivers worn by customers/patrons while they are attending the venue.

Key Features
Simple
Customers simply wear a set of headphones that are attached to a receiver device to enjoy the signal from the sound system transmitter.
Receiver Loop
For those who wear hearing aids, a receiver loop worn around the neck can be used in place of the headphones that works with the telecoil setting in the hearing aids.
Recharge
The receivers can be stored easily and simply by the venue in a charging case or tray which will also recharge the batteries in them ready for use again the next day.

Infrared Hearing Assistance
System of choice when confidentiality is important
Ideal Applications:
Infrared systems are ideally suited to venues with multiple meeting spaces equipped with amplification systems. The infrared radiator is installed neatly above a TV or Projector and connects directly to the sound source. Because the technology contains the signal to the room, this is the system of choice when confidentiality is important.
For larger spaces, sometimes additional transmitters, known as slave transmitters, may need to be used, but our team can advise you on what would work best in your space.
