About
Phonak is a global leader in hearing technology, and Roger is their wireless assistive listening system engineered for educational and professional settings. Roger uses advanced digital wireless transmission to deliver clear speech directly to compatible hearing aids and cochlear implants, overcoming the typical challenges of classroom noise and reverberation.
What It Does
The system includes a microphone worn by the teacher, receivers integrated into or worn alongside a student hearing device, and optional SoundField speakers that amplify audio for the entire classroom. A pass-around student microphone allows the child with hearing loss to hear classmate contributions as well as the teacher. Roger devices are compatible with most hearing aid brands through a Roger neckloop or a built-in receiver module.
Who It Helps
Roger for Education supports children and adolescents with hearing loss in mainstream and specialist classrooms, as well as college and university students who need improved speech understanding in lecture environments.
