Dual microphone technolgies designed to enable more focused hearing
Having more than one microphone on your sound processor can help you focus on what you want to hear.
Cochlear's dual-microphones deliver better hearing performance compared to a single microphone.1 Dual microphone technologies help filter out noise that is not coming from the direction the person is facing.

Data logging: supporting your hearing health professionals guidance
Life is busy. Some days it's tough to remember how you're using your sound processor. But data logging technology automatically tracks usage and records the information.
Your hearing health professional can review the data for trends and important information that shows how the system is working for you.
They can make any adjustments accordingly, to be sure your processor is setup best to suit your needs.
For parents, data logging provides information that can help your child get the most from their Nucleus system.
It also means your hearing health professional can download information about your child’s hearing, such as:
-
how many hours per day they're using the cochlear implant
-
the different sound environments they experience in a day
-
the volume levels they use throughout the day.
Track how you or your child hears
Another special feature of the Nucleus Smart App+, the Hearing Tracker feature, gives you direct access to your usage information. This is available with the Nucleus 7 Sound Processor.
With the Hearing Tracker in the Nucleus Smart App, you can monitor important information about how you or your child is hearing with the sound processor.
Some benefits to the Hearing Tracker include:
-
Time in speech: The amount of time you hear in speaking environments is a goal that helps you monitor how you're using your sound processor.
-
Coil Offs: This is the number of times the Nucleus 7 Sound Processor coil was disconnected on a given day, telling you how many times it was removed.
It's helpful to establish a baseline number of coil offs to try and minimise them. For parents, you can monitor how often your child disconnects their sound processor.
