Anindo, SNCI has new technology. Sonic introduced a new digital type hearing aid recently whose technology was developed by Carver Mead, Cal Tech physicist. This new technology is the first hearing aid that works like human analog hearing system. Most hard of hearing people can hear anything if it is loud enough but the problem is it is either too loud or not loud enough. Mead discovered that hard of hearing people can hear vowels just fine but have trouble with consonants. Since most words start with consonants he developed a digital chip that recognizes the break between words and amplifies the beginning of each word slightly and softens the rest. The device is tiny and fits inside the ear (vanity issue solved) will cost about 25% of cost of existing hearing aids that don't work. Aging population is getting deaf younger due to a noisy world. This chip has nine frequencies compared to other digital chips with two. Sonic aid can tune out traffic noise, background noise, and amplify human speech. The first hearing aid that actually works. Harvard Prof. Clayton Christensen wrote "The Innovator's Dilemma" which details how "Disruptive Innovation" comes into existing markets and takes over the market. This is a wealth building stock, not a trader. Make sure you use limit orders because it is thinly traded and sometimes volatile. Maybe I should have posted this on a new technology thread. Oh well. cdaisey@whatdidyousay.com
