Inspiro is a brand new transmitter, ideally suited to the needs of teachers and suitable for use in regular schools as well as special schools for hearing-impaired pupils. The outstanding design, with its large color display, makes this transmitter unique. Soft keys, an alarm clock, housing options to suit different types of clothing, and a wealth of other details reflect our passion for user-friendliness.
Dynamic Speech Extractor
Dynamic Speech Extractor is a set of trailblazing automatic adjustment features that open up a whole new dimension in speech understanding for users. It features intelligent voice activity detection, which mutes the receiver when the teacher stops speaking.
The concept that really sets it apart is Adaptive FM Advantage (AFMA). This new algorithm automatically adjusts the output of the FM receiver to ambient noise and is the industry's largest-ever single improvement in signal-to-noise ratio. It is so effective that the tougher the environment, the better Inspiro works! Speech scores in loud noise increase by dozens of percentage points. At the same time it eliminates the need for switching between FM + M and FM only.
AutoConnect
AutoConnect is a suite of automatic adjustment features that bring unprecedented convenience for fitters.
AutoConnect correctly and fully automatically sets many of the parameters in any given combination of Dynamic FM receivers and hearing instruments. It allows users to choose their preferred FM output level and corrects different impedances in direct audio inputs from hearing instruments. It largely eliminates the need for programming and verifying FM systems.
At the end of the day, AutoConnect in Dynamic FM receivers combined with the Dynamic Speech Extractor in the Inspiro transmitter gives users automatic brilliance never experienced before.
DataLogging FM
DataLogging has already featured widely in hearing instruments but is now integrated for the first time ever in an FM system. It stores data such as the length of time the transmitter is worn, use of audio input, events like monitoring (including outcomes), and other invaluable information. Data in the Inspiro memory can subsequently be read on a PC with the help of FM SuccessWare 4.0. This gives audiologists a clear, comprehensive insight as to how the system has been used and enables them to provide advice, recommendations and genuinely valuable support to users.
By far the most efficient troubleshooting concept currently available, DataLogging FM opens up a vista of new possibilities, enabling users to get the most out of their Dynamic FM systems and saving professionals valuable time.
Ultimately, DataLogging FM in Inspiro provides more comprehensive insight than has ever been possible before.
MultiTalker Network
MultiTalker Network is the ultimate support tool for two or more professionals working with a class and guarantees each teacher the full attention of the hearing-impaired child. Intelligent Inspiro transmitters automatically detect which teacher is talking and assign the FM channel to this person, switching seamlessly to the other teacher as soon as he or she becomes involved.
MultiTalker Network transmits only the voice of the professional who is talking to the hearing-impaired child. Non-relevant microphones are muted and their acoustic signals - in this case noise - are not transmitted, making the sound quality exceptionally clear. Available in all Inspiro transmitters, MultiTalker Network does away with expensive hardware and, because it uses only one FM channel, eliminates the need for special licenses or additional frequency allocations.
As a means of providing genuine educational flexibility, MultiTalker Network represents an enormous classroom advance.
Monitoring
Monitoring is a unique, sophisticated feature that puts the platform in a league of its own, providing teachers, audiologists, speech therapists or parents with a reliable system check. This is particularly valuable if children are uncooperative or simply too young to give a reliable response.
From now on, simply by pushing a button on Inspiro (the transmitter), supervisors have immediate feedback on hearing instrument battery status, audio shoe connection quality, channel information, the student's name, the receiver serial number, and the date and time of monitoring.
When the transmitter is switched on, Inspiro automatically checks the function of the buttons, the LCD, the audio input connection and the charging circuit; it's quite simply the best guarantee that the system works perfectly.
Thanks to Monitoring, professionals dealing with children have the daily reassurance of knowing that everything is functioning as it should be.
SoundCheck
SoundCheck is the first feature of its kind to appear in any FM system worldwide and comes with an unprecedented degree of sophistication: it measures both speech and background noise levels simultaneously. Results are shown in an easy-to-understand format on the display. This means SoundCheck functions as a background noise warning system and at the same time helps the teacher to place the transmitter microphone in the best possible position.
Used correctly, this practical support function is a source of invaluable information based on actual measurements that enables the teacher to deliver effectively, even under relatively noisy conditions.
SoundCheck in Inspiro provides an unparalleled level of acoustical awareness that ultimately benefits both teachers and children.
ChannelFinder
ChannelFinder is designed to detect interference-free channels and provide ultra-clear reception in environments where many transmitters are present: a need obvious enough in itself, but which has not been successfully accommodated before now.
Enabling crystal-clear, interference-free reception, ChannelFinder facilitates instant synchronization of the receiver to the new frequency as and when required. And although child's play to operate, the system features intuitive help screens on the Inspiro display to guide the user through the individual steps necessary to find a channel and guarantee optimum performance.
Apart from eliminating interference, ChannelFinder comes with improved automatic frequency control, which automatically adjusts the receivers to the exact transmission frequency and ensures minimum distortion. ChannelFinder is the professional's guarantee for clean, interference-free reception. |
