Bluetooth LE Audio

Auracast™ hearing aids

Auracast is a Bluetooth LE Audio technology that can broadcast audio to compatible devices, including hearing aids that support the standard.

What is Auracast?

Auracast allows one audio source to broadcast sound to multiple compatible listeners. It can be useful in airports, hospitals, gyms, conference halls, cinemas, churches and public spaces.

Why it matters

Many hearing aid users struggle with speech at a distance or in noise. Auracast aims to bring the sound source closer to the hearing aid when the environment supports it.

Where it can help

Airports

Clearer access to announcements in noisy areas.

Public TV

Audio from silent TVs in compatible locations.

Lectures

Closer access to a presenter’s voice where Auracast is available.
