It’s estimated that around 1.5 billion people worldwide experience some form of mild to moderate hearing loss, and yet, many have hesitated to seek traditional hearing aids. The reason is that these devices have often been bulky, inconvenient, and far from discreet. But now, there's a smarter alternative. The Nuance Audio glasses combine the benefits of advanced hearing technology and high-quality vision correction into one seamless product. With their sleek design and effortless functionality, they make it possible to enhance your hearing without the need for separate, still often stigmatized, devices. In a world where convenience and discretion matter, the Nuance Audio glasses deliver both, offering a subtle yet powerful solution that fits right into your everyday routine. Bringing Clear Sound To Your Daily Frames The Nuance Audio glasses are the brainchild of EssilorLuxottica, a team of engineers and designers who have long realized the need for a more seamless solution to hearing loss. Their arrival sparked immediate recognition, earning an award for Best Health Tech Innovation at CES 2024. What set these glasses apart was their ability to combine hearing aids and eyewear in an elegant, unobtrusive package. The Nuance Audio's design is all about bringing sophisticated hearing technology effortlessly into your daily life, ensuring that users no longer need to choose between good hearing and good style. Transforming how you interact with the world, these glasses allow you to see and hear more clearly, delivering crisp, undistorted sound directly through the frame. The Magic Behind Nuance Audio Glasses: How They Work STEP #1. Activate Effortlessly with a Tap It’s one of those moments when you're surrounded by a cacophony of sounds—perhaps at a bustling event or in a lively conversation. A simple tap on the frame or press of a button on the remote, and the Nuance Audio glasses are ready to step in. Immediately, they tune into the environment, adjusting your hearing settings to focus on what matters most. This smooth, immediate transition makes sure you’re always in control, cutting through the noise without missing a word. STEP #2. Directional Microphones Zero In The Nuance Audio glasses are equipped with highly advanced beamforming microphones that focus sharply on the sounds directly in front of you. By isolating noise from the surroundings, they ensure that the voice or sound you want to hear stands out with exceptional clarity. With the ability to detect and respond to slight changes in sound direction, these microphones work even in the noisiest of environments. So, whether you're having a one-on-one conversation or listening to a speech, the sound stays crisp and clear, while background noise fades into the distance. STEP #3. Open-Ear Speakers Deliver Clear, Comfortable, No-Lag Sound Integrated open-ear speakers, built right into the frame just above your ears, project sound directly where it's meant to go, creating an immersive and comfortable listening experience. Unlike traditional earphones, this design keeps you connected to your surroundings so you remain aware of your environment. With no wires or earplugs involved, the Nuance Audio glasses allow you to hear with natural ease, offering an experience that’s as seamless as it is comfortable. And, with no delay between lip movements and sound due to advanced low-latency technology, your conversations always feel in sync. STEP #4. Fine-Tune with Remote or App If you want more control over the sound, the glasses allow you to adjust the volume, isolate specific frequencies, or customize settings with just a tap on the remote or via Nuance Audio App. Whether you’re in a quiet room or a crowded party, the app also lets you create and save personalized presets for common situations, ensuring you’re always ready for whatever comes next. This intuitive interface puts you in charge of your hearing experience, making fine-tuning effortless and convenient. With the option to adjust on the fly, you're always hearing exactly what you need, no matter where you are. STEP #5. Recharge Easily with a Charging Pad The Nuance Audio glasses come with a dedicated charging pad to keep your hearing system fully ready. At the end of the day, simply place the frames on the pad to ensure they're set for tomorrow. The charging pad keeps your audio system powered and primed for use, offering a full charge that lasts up to 16 hours. This means you can stay connected and engaged throughout your day, without the concern of running out of power.
