Mimi Hearing Technologies Teams Up With DSP Group to Optimize Speech Intelligibility in the Voice Enterprise Family
September 04 2019 - 7:00AM
Mimi Hearing Technologies today announced that it is partnering
with DSP Group, a leading global provider of wireless chipset
solutions, to improve voice intelligibility on mobile, consumer and
enterprise devices by tuning audio output according to a listener’s
unique hearing ability.
Developed and refined through its analysis of 1.5 million
individual hearing profiles, Mimi’s proprietary sound processing is
able to provide a personalized listening experience, allowing users
to hear every detail of a conversation. By integrating the
technology into DSP Group’s portfolio of SoC solutions, powering
unified communications phones, mobile phones, wireless hearables
and wearables, Mimi will make speech significantly more
intelligible for a listener, regardless of their location.
“DSP Group has been at the forefront of semiconductor innovation
and design excellence for over two decades and this is another
example of our ability to recognize and partner with game-changing
technology companies to bring cutting-edge solutions to our
customers,” said Ofer Elyakim, CEO of DSP Group. “In this way they
can realize “best-in-class” products and together we can shape the
future of converged communications at home, in the office, and on
the go.”
Philipp Skribanowitz, CEO of Mimi Hearing Technologies, said,
“Speech intelligibility is absolutely crucial for both effective
human communication and for the enjoyment of audio containing
speech, such as phone calls, streaming, and podcasts. Background
noise, however, degrades the overall listening experience and poses
a significant challenge when it comes to understanding
conversation. By partnering with DSP Group, we can deliver a truly
personalized listening experience that, without the combination of
both technologies, would not be possible. We can’t change the
conversation, but we can help users understand it.”
Ran Klier, CVP & GM of Unified Communications (UC) and
Hearables at DSP Group, added, “Delivering upon our promise of the
highest level of customer satisfaction sits at the heart of our
business, so being able to provide a personalized listening
experience through Mimi allows us to provide even greater value to
our customers. Mimi is clearly leading the way in hearing science
innovation and so we are excited to be working together to make
speech clearer and more understandable with optimized audio across
all of our devices.”
Building on a sustained period of growth this is a strategic
partnership between two leading technology companies that is
enabling seamless integration of Mimi’s sound processing technology
into a variety of day-to-day applications and solutions leveraging
DSP Group’s expertise, innovation and position in the smart voice
space.
