LINNER Launches LINNER NOVA, An Antibacterial Hearing Aids with the Unprecedented Features

Marked as the groundbreaking hearing aids design amped with unique innovation New York City, NY, Jul 27, 2022 – (SEAPRWire) –The highly-expected LINNER NOVA is officially coming out in 2022. This latest Bluetooth hearing aids device is designed for people that have moderate to severe hearing loss. Unlike conventional hearing aids products, LINNER NOVA allows users to easily perform self-fitting tests at home through the LINNER HA APP. With medical-grade antibacterial eartips and built-in UV germicidal light, LINNER has made it a total game changer in the hearing aids industry. “We’re the first in history that have added the concept of antibacterial into product design. At the same time, we’ve preserved the general functionality of any Bluetooth device such as listening to the music, hands-free phone calls and even TV streaming,” the company announced. The use of antibacterial eartips effectively solves the problem of bacterial infection caused by the rise in temperature and humidity due to the sealed space in the ear canal after wearing hearing aids for a long time. And the built-in UV-C lamp sterilization in the charging case ensures the ear tips are clean and spotless every time used. “We have tested in a licensed lab, our antibacterial ear tips could suppress up to 99.93% bacteria after 24 hours, and the UV-C lamps could kill most bacteria within 1 minute,” said Bond, the founder of LINNER. LINNER NOVA also comes with a wireless adapter that directly transmits the TV sounds to the device, creating a more clean and immersive TV experience for the users. NOVA could also work as a remote microphone by simply placing it where the user wants to hear from up to 33ft away. And the sound will be reproduced in the hearing aids. Equipped with two high performance microphones on each side, LINNER NOVA uses a beamforming algorithm that accurately identifies the direction of the target sound and analyzes sound characteristics including frequency, energy, and spectrum. The unwanted sounds will be suppressed while the wanted sounds are amplified to ensure that the users hear the sounds they want. “New hearing aids have become a trend. The market share of traditional hearing aids has a clear tendency to decline. Compared with competitors, our products are doing better in the core function of hearing aids such as higher hearing enhancement, feedback suppression and noise reduction. Our team also came up with features that meet specific needs in the user’s daily life at the same time,” Bond shared. Designed to be user-friendly, consumers can now perform the self-fitting test at home through LINNER HA APP. They will only need to follow the prompts on the page and choose whether they’ve heard the sound or not. The rest of the operation is automatically completed within approximately 5 minutes. The app then generates an audiogram that visualizes the degree of hearing loss and integrates the results into the device to wrap up the fitting process. Additional features include real-time battery monitor, stereo volume controller, and switching modes which basically cover most of the consumers’ daily use scenarios.  Founded in California in 2016, LINNER established its signature technology with more than two million LINNER noise canceling earbuds sold worldwide. LINNER derives from the word “listener” and the philosophy that LINNER is committed to providing a better hearing experience through innovative technologies such as advanced noise cancellation, directional voice pick-up, and beam-forming algorithms. User experience has always been the most crucial element in the introduction of LINNER’s products.

Athletics: Jamaica’s Nesta Carter tests positive, faces disciplinary hearing

KINGSTON, JAMAICA (REUTERS) - Jamaica's Olympic and world championship medallist Nesta Carter, whose positive doping test caused Usain Bolt to be stripped of his Beijing 2008 Olympic 4x100 metres relay gold, has tested positive again and faces an anti-doping hearing next week. Confirmation of the now-retired Carter's positive test came from the Chairman of the Jamaica Anti-Doping Disciplinary Panel and the sprinter's lawyer Stuart Stimpson. "We have a matter with Nesta Carter... We do have a disciplinary hearing that was referred to me by JADCO (Jamaica Anti-Doping Commission)," Kent Gammon told Reuters by telephone on Tuesday (Oct 5). Gammon, who declined to name the banned substance, said the disciplinary hearing will start on Oct 14. Stimpson declined to provide any details on the substance or the circumstances surrounding Carter's positive test. The latest anti-doping violation comes three years after Carter lost his appeal at the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) against the International Olympic Committee's decision to strip him and the rest of the Jamaica men's sprint relay team, comprising Bolt, Asafa Powell and Michael Frater, of their gold medals from the 2008 Beijing Games. In August, 35-year-old Carter issued a news release saying he had retired due to a private medical condition which had hindered him from training and competing since March 2021. He indicated at the time that a medication prescribed by his doctor to treat the condition violated anti-doping rules and as such he had chosen his health over athletics. Carter has a personal best of 9.78 seconds for the 100 metres, which ranks as the ninth fastest time ever and the fourth best by a Jamaican sprinter in history.

Children with hearing loss to get dedicated support at MOE kindergarten

SINGAPORE - Children with hearing loss will get dedicated support for the first time at a pre-school run by the Ministry of Education (MOE). The kindergarten, which starts operations next year, will teach sign language to children with moderate to profound hearing loss. The aim is for them to build basic language proficiency in Singapore sign language from a young age, so that they can also learn the same curriculum as their hearing peers. Besides having a dedicated sign language teacher, children will also have access to external speech and language therapists as well as services provided by audiologists in school. The centre, which will be located within Mayflower Primary School in Ang Mo Kio, will have a capacity of 120 children per cohort. It will take in seven to 10 children with hearing loss per level from 2022. Minister of State for Education Sun Xueling, who announced this provision on Thursday (Nov 12) during a visit to Mayflower Primary School, said: "We believe that the earlier the children with hearing loss come into contact with the Singapore sign language, the better their foundations in it. "It will help to build their confidence, and will also allow them to interact better with their peers." Ms Sun added: "Such a model allows greater inclusion in our education system. It allows our typically developing children to see and interact with children of different abilities." She said children with hearing loss will benefit from having regular interaction with their peers, as it can boost their confidence and help them socialise better. The other children will also be able to pick up sign language.

Mayflower Primary School is the first primary school to take in children with moderate to profound hearing loss who use sign language. It started with six such children in 2018, and now has nine across the different levels. The MOE said that its kindergartens already provide support to children with mild developmental delays, who can learn in a group of 20 children. The ministry said that it will continue to meet the needs of children who require extra support, and help them have a smooth transition to the next phase of education. About four in 1,000 babies in Singapore are born with hearing loss each year. About one in 1,000 will have severe hearing loss. Information on the admission process for children with hearing loss to the MOE kindergarten in Mayflower Primary will be released in February 2021.
