What Is Auracast Technology?

by | 05/30/2024 | Hearing Aids

The advent of Auracast technology might just be the game-changer you've been waiting for.
Do you find yourself straining to hear at public gatherings like theaters, concerts, or conferences?  

If so, the advent of Auracast technology might just be the game-changer you’ve been waiting for. 

The Limitations of Traditional Assisted Listening Systems 

Historically, venues have employed various assisted listening systems (ALS) to help those with hearing challenges. 

These systems, such as induction loops, infrared, and FM systems, attempt to enhance audio clarity but often fall short. 

Issues such as high costs, complex installation, and inconsistent sound quality have long plagued these traditional systems, diminishing the overall experience for hearing aid users. 

Introducing Auracast: The Future of Bluetooth Audio 

Auracast, heralded as the next generation of Bluetooth, promises to revolutionize how we connect with audio in public spaces. This breakthrough technology is a feature of Bluetooth LE Audio, which is built on the new Bluetooth 5.2 standard, known for its low energy requirements and dual audio streaming capabilities. 

With Auracast, places like movie theaters, places of worship, transportation hubs, and more can broadcast high-quality audio to an extensive audience at a fraction of the cost associated with traditional systems. 

How Auracast Enhances Public Listening Experiences 

Auracast delivers several significant benefits: 

1. Audio Sharing:

This feature allows individuals to share audio directly from devices such as smartphones or tablets with others nearby, perfect for meetings or guided tours. 

2. Unmuting Public Broadcasts:

Auracast enables the hearing of broadcasts from muted televisions in public venues such as bars, airports, and waiting rooms, enhancing accessibility and engagement. 

3. Improved Listening Quality for Hearing Aid Users:

Auracast can significantly improve the clarity and quality of public broadcasts directly through hearing aids, ensuring a more inclusive and enjoyable auditory experience. 

4. Cost-effective Deployment:

The affordability and ease of integrating Auracast mean it can be installed in many more locations, increasing accessibility across a broader range of public venues. 

The Impact of Auracast on the Hearing Aid Industry 

For the hearing aid industry and users alike, Auracast represents a significant advancement. Currently, many hearing aids require the use of a smartphone as an intermediary to connect with ALS. 

However, with the integration of Bluetooth LE Audio, future hearing aids will directly connect to Auracast broadcasts, simplifying the process and enhancing the user experience.

Brian was born in San Angelo, Texas, and moved to Odessa at the age of 5. Brian, at a very early age, had a love of music and sound. At the age of 13 Brian started to play guitar. He graduated from Permian High School and after graduation went on tour playing music and to this day, still plays in the Midland-Odessa area. Brian has been married to his high school sweetheart, Amy, for 25 years and they have one son. His family means the world to him. Over the years Brian has opened up for acts like Jason Aldean, Spencer Davis Group, Denny Laine from Wings, and many other top name groups. As life slowed down the time came for Brian to take his passion for music and sound and apply it to Audiology. Brian loves helping people and his great grandmother’s deafness and his own challenges with hearing loss drove him to become a State Licensed Hearing Instrument Specialist. Brian is a member of the International Hearing Society (IHS), and the Texas Hearing Aid Association (THAA). His care for his clients and his knowledge of the industry has lead to many people being helped in their hearing journey.
