Roger On Key Benefits: 

• MultiBeam 2.0 Technology* - selects the microphone beam with the best signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and tells the wearer the direction of the speaker. MultiBeam Technology has been shown to increase speech understanding up to 61% in a group conversation in 75 dBA of noise, compared to hearing aids alone.¹
•  
• Improved Pointing Mode – features Pointing Mode 2.0 with three microphones that allow consumers to zoom in on a conversation over distance by simply pointing. Roger On virtually doubles the performance using Pointing Mode 2.0 compared with hearing aids alone in background noise at two meters distance.**
•  
• New myRogerMic App – With the new myRogerMic app, consumers can steer or change the microphone beam using their smartphone for a more personalize hearing experience. The app also allows wearers to save custom modes, see microphone status and mute and unmute.

“We know that hearing in background noise or across the room remains a challenge for some hearing aid or cochlear implant wearers—and that was before social distancing and mask-wearing,” said Jon Billings, Vice-President Phonak Marketing. That’s why we’re so excited about the new Roger On. “It combines hearing performance, ease-of-use and versatility into a sleek remote microphone that can be used in virtually any listening situation.”

Designed for Versatility

Roger On is compatible with almost every hearing aid and cochlear implant and automatically switches between different microphone modes depending on if it is used on a table, clipped on clothing or held in the hand. In Presenter Mode, an accelerometer activates an upward pointing beam to ensure speech quality is maintained independent of position.***It can be connected to a TV, laptop, or other device for high-quality audio streaming in stereo and is also IP54 rated for protection against splashes of water. 

Award-Winning Design

Roger On is now the recipient of three coveted awards for product design and innovation. It was just honored with a 2021 iF Design Award in the Product discipline due in part to its large multifunctional button and visual display and also received a 2021 German Innovation Award for its user benefits, functionality and ease-of-use. Last month, Roger On received a “Red Dot” Award, one of the most internationally sought-after seals of quality for outstanding product design. 

Roger On comes in Champagne and Graphite Grey colors, charges via USB-C and has eight hours of use time on a single charge. It will be available as of June 15, 2021.
