Waterproof cochlear sound processors Electronics News

COCHLEAR implants and sound processors that are waterproof are now a reality for US and Canadian users.

Advanced Bionics has received US and Canadian approval for its Neptune swimmable and waterproof sound processor.

The Neptune unit helps cochlear implant recipients hear in and out of the water. This means they can listen to important safety instructions and other such language development opportunities during swimming or bathing.

The waterproof design of the Neptune also allows it to be used in a wider range of terrains, and it can be worn anywhere, such as in the hair, on an arm, under a collar, in a pocket.
