Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

SonicCloud is a Phone Call App That Sends Different Sounds to Different Ears

— October 27, 2017 — Tech
This phone call app personalizes listening and optimizes what you hear in each ear. The SonicCloud app captures your individual 'Hearing Fingerprint' so each and every sound you hear is personalized. Whether you are hard of hearing and have auditory issues or are simply seeking more clarity because you recently sat too close to some speakers, this mobile application addresses a range of hearing-related challenges.

With SonicCloud, both ears receive a different sonic signal. The fine-tuning phone call app optimizes noisy locations and peoples' voices (especially foreign accents) and makes a marked improvement for those with hearing loss. Other features include unlimited VOIP calls, fully customizable sound experiences and personalized hearing profiles for crystal-clear calls.

This technology could also prove useful for public spaces and accessibility purposes.
