People with hearing loss can dream of a future when hearing aids might also serve as wireless loudspeakers, delivering clear, customized sound from inside their ears. They can dream of communities where worship places, auditoriums, business windows, and home TV rooms all broadcast their sound through these in-the-ear loudspeakers. Thanks to the refinement of "induction loop" systems--which magnetically transmit sound to hearing aids and cochlear implants with telecoils (T-coils)--that future can be now!

Why are induction loops important?

Loop Systems are solutions for assistive listening, providing access to high quality intelligible sound for the hard of hearing. These systems are a great benefit to the hard-of-hearing, and the demand for them is rapidly increasing around the world:

• Assistive listening benefits a large and ever growing section of society - hearing impairment affects one in seven of us, a number that is increasing as the population ages. Providing fair and high quality service to this large group is becoming a high priority for any service provider or public organisation.
• Induction Loop Systems offer many unique benefits to service providers and to end users that make them an essential facility in many private and public environments. 
• The hard-of-hearing community is increasingly aware of the solutions available to assist them, increasing end-user demand for assistive listening solutions.

Where can induction loops be used?

Induction Loops can be beneficial in a very wide range of environments, from large venues such as theatres and conference facilities, to one-to-one communications such as ticket counters and meeting rooms. They are the only effective solution to assist hearing aid users in transport environments, in vehicles, terminals and stations.

Examples of existing applications for induction loop systems:

• Transport Systems 
  Airports, stations and transport networks, Elevators, Help points, Car park access points
• Vehicles 
  Taxis and private cars, Minibuses, Coaches, Trains, Trams and Boats
• Venues
