1 The Inium custom programme INIUM WIRELESS Cosmetics and performance made easy

2 360º of choice creates an altogether easier approach to custom hearing care The Inium custom programme enables you to give your clients everything they want. Easily. New Oticon Ria joins Alta and Nera to complete a line of performance solutions that enables you to meet style demands without compromising performance. In addition, with the introduction of invisible IIC to all families, you now have more opportunities to meet your clients wishes for highly discreet solutions. We have also extended the output to fitting level 100 so that the demands of those with more severe hearing loss can be met, and we have enabled greater volume control flexibility for this user group. Indeed, the Inium custom programme answers today s demands for smaller, more discreet solutions, configured to individual needs. Built on the Inium processor platform, our custom enhances custom performance by producing our finest sound quality ever, while significantly reducing feedback. In addition improved construction and hardware design deliver an impressive level of durability. Overall, this programme is an altogether easier approach to custom hearing care. We have streamlined the entire process to make everything from ordering to design and fitting as smooth and comfortable as possible. It is designed to give you and your clients cosmetics and performance made easy and really is something worth taking advantage of.

3 Full performance line Providing hearing care for mild to severe hearing loss, the full performance line can meet hearing needs and preferences. Flexible aesthetics An extended range of styles, sophisticated technology and exceptional sound quality provide configuration opportunities so that you are able to meet your clients aesthetic needs. Easy process A streamlined process ensures everything from ordering to design and fitting is as easy, smooth and comfortable as possible.

4 Cosmetics and performance made easy What matters most to many A surprising number of your clients choose cosmetics above all else It s human nature to try to hide our weaknesses. And keeping hearing loss hidden from others remains the overwhelming priority for the majority of hearing solution users. In fact, one in five choose an in-the-ear hearing instrument over other style options, because that is what appears most discreet to them. The Inium custom programme represents a continuation of the journey we embarked on with the development of our first ever IIC solution. Today, the invisible IIC style is available at all performance levels through Alta, Nera and Ria.

5 Our redesigned custom hardware, software and processes enable you to meet your clients demands for a discreet, aesthetic and comfortable hearing solution, while compensating their hearing loss with excellent audiology and sound quality.

6 Cosmetics and performance made easy The attraction of satisfaction

7 Five base instrument style definitions FS, HS, ITC, CIC and now invisible IIC provide the foundation on which almost any perceivable configuration can be built. Achieve greater client satisfaction with custom styles Satisfaction is the very least your clients expect from a custom hearing solution designed to meet their unique individual needs. So we have created more opportunities for you to optimise client satisfaction, with unprecedented freedom to deliver the desired signal processing performance, directionality, binaural audiology and connectivity, and a new level of support throughout the ordering and design process. Feature configuration will always be balanced with style choice, and we appreciate it may be difficult to foresee the size trade-offs that the selection of specific functionalities might cause. Based on your audiometric assessments and the client s specific audiometric needs, we tailor the output performance to accommodate the most optimal total solution. This means that even in borderline cases where, for example, an extra power reserve might otherwise have prevented a client s style choice from being met, they can, in most instances, get exactly what they need and want.

8 Cosmetics and performance made easy Less has never given more INIUM WIRELESS The state-of-the-art quad-core platform, right at the heart With the ultra tiny Inium quad-core platform, we believe we have achieved an optimal combination of size, exceptional performance and low power consumption. Inium means we are able to build our most advanced technologies into the smallest form factors, but there are more dimensions to client satisfaction than just size - sound quality and performance play significant roles in the longer term. Inium delivers as the enabler for Oticon s industryleading audiology, designed to give better understanding with less effort.

9 Size With Inium we have reached our best size/ performance ratio ever. Even the physical dimensions of the components make the platform more flexible to work with when designing the perfect personal fit for your client s individual ear. Battery life Even though the Inium platform is the most powerful signal processor we have ever made, every process is designed to deliver the desired performance while using as little power as possible. With near-field magnetics, Inium is an extremely power-efficient wireless system that conserves power to perform advanced core signal processing in challenging situations. Performance Setting the stage for excellent sound quality and truly personalised performance, Inium through Alta, Nera and Ria expands your options for meeting your clients amplification needs regardless of their level of hearing loss. A significant algorithm work space enables simultaneous processes and software features that can take into account a range of new personal parameters to control signal processing.

10 Cosmetics and performance made easy Exceptional sound quality, without exception Raising the audiological bar once again The Inium custom programme delivers the renowned Oticon sound quality in any situation, independent of hearing loss. Listening comfort is something we take very seriously, and while new ventilation design improves both the physical and acoustic sides of wearing a custom hearing solution, the Inium feedback shield enhances the experience even more. The Inium feedback shield provides a signal almost free of feedback without compromising signal fidelity, which contrasts to other overly-aggressive systems that prioritise feedback elimination without paying attention to the resultant increase in artefacts and decrease in sound quality. And the result speaks for itself. The Inium feedback shield reduces feedback incidents by more than 80% (compared to our former DFC generations), preserving optimal audibility, sound quality and comfort.

11 This exceptional performance is complemented by a range of core features supported by the Inium platform, which help to reduce listening effort, make voices easier to follow and switch between, and let you meet more of your clients personal sound preferences. These all add up to a more satisfying listening experience.

12 Cosmetics and performance made easy Born to be worn ProWax T-Cap Free vent Battery 10 instruments New vent design, extra-tough and ultra-thin shells, nano-coated filters and thorough craftsmanship combine to deliver comfort and durability throughout the programme The Inium custom programme features systematic improvements throughout the construction, design and assembly process to directly counter the size and durability issues faced by custom instruments in everyday use. The extra-tough, ultra-thin shell ensures all styles have a durable, robust exterior, while internal workings are guarded with moisture resistance and other effective protection measures. To fully exploit the surface area and internal free space geometry, a new, freely shaped vent type fully maximises the venting effect and provides a more comfortable listening experience, especially for clients with moderate hearing loss. And in order to further minimise service and maintenance, our nano-coated receiver and microphone protection systems feature easily exchangeable filters.

13 ProWax O-Cap Free vent Battery 312 & 13 instruments Free vent Designed to reduce occlusion and increase comfort, while making it possible to build smaller instruments. T-Cap The nano-coated, wax-repellent T-Cap filter is used for all miniature custom styles. ProWax Providing advanced receiver port protection, the ProWax filter fits all styles in the new Oticon custom programme. O-Cap The new nano-coated, O-Cap microphone protection filter is designed to reject wax and fits all instruments using battery size 312 and 13

14 Cosmetics and performance made easy An entire process, simplified ORDER Our customer service team work in close collaboration with our expert production team to take the hard work out of the ordering process, by balancing size constraints posed by the scanned ear canal geometry against audiological performance and output targets. Both teams have been trained and equipped with new tools in the optimisation of size and performance. DESIGN High quality miniature components and the most advanced thin and durable shell materials give more construction and configurability freedom. Fitting level and venting selections are supported by algorithms that use audiogram data to guide the design process, and alternative components and faceplate geometries allow us to build more instruments to your specifications without compromise. More freedom, comfort and success, less compromise Throughout the Inium custom programme, more functionality in a smaller space results in greater ordering freedom and fewer compromises, not to mention a better physical fit and more successful fittings. In terms of the process itself, we have left no stone unturned in improving and streamlining, all the way from ordering through to fitting, removing anything that might complicate or impede optimal flow. This is not only to offer you more configuration flexibility than ever, but also to make it easier and more intuitive for you. Overall, it is about creating as positive an impact on your workflow as possible, so you can enjoy the benefits of a custom hearing solution as much as your clients.

15 FIT The Genie fitting software automatically suggests an initial fitting that forms an excellent basis for fine-tuning which, in many cases, can be carried out during your clients follow-up visit. Flexible venting with low risk of feedback is powered by the highly effective Inium feedback shield that ensures that you can match individual hearing loss with a comfortable sound experience and low risk of occlusion.
