Assisted Listening Devices
Why do organizations implement Assisted Listening Devices?
Assisted listening devices are a popular option for organizations that have a wide variety of clientele, and a large portion of public facilities that have the need to cater to many people. It benefits hearing impaired users, because their personal hearing aids can potentially cause them more troubles in a challenging listening environment. Background noises and feedback are common occurrences in larger and noisy environments when using personal hearing aids.
Assisted Listening is also beneficial for everyone, when communicating to others in very open or noisy environments. Narrated tours are a common user of assisted listening devices, because it assures everyone is capable of still hearing the guide no matter their positioning.
How does the system work and what does it do?
An assisted listening device is a small portable device that will pick up a signal from the PA system in your building, or from portable broadcast equipment. The sound is broadcast over FM frequency that the assisted listening device will then convey to the listener. The auditor will be able to adjust the volume on the device to a comfortable level and be able to hear the broadcast in real-time through earpieces or headphones. 
Locations are now even capable of broadcasting over WIFI connection for visitors to use their own WIFI capable devices to pick up the broadcast, instead of implementing individual devices.
