The recently-launched Oticon Zeal wearable combines advanced technology into a single, compact, sealed structure that fits discreetly in the ear.

Oticon’s encapsulation technology has made it possible to integrate advanced hearing features into a very small, discreet in-the-ear device while maintaining exceptional durability.
Oticon’s BrainHearing philosophy is based on the understanding that we hear with our brains, not just our ears. So Oticon technology supports the brain’s natural ability to recognise, organise, and interpret sounds, helping users make better sense of conversations and their surroundings.
This approach is integrated across Oticon Hearing aid features such as DNN 2.0 and MoreSound Intelligence, which results in more natural sound processing, improved speech understanding, and reduced listening effort, even in complex listening situations.
AI-powered personalised hearing is made possible through DNN 2.0, Oticon’s second-generation artificial intelligence designed to work in a way that mirrors the human brain. Trained on millions of real-world sound scenes, DNN 2.0 is developed to support how the brain naturally interprets sound, rather than simply amplifying it.
This enables the hearing aid to distinguish between meaningful sounds, such as speech, and background noise, while intelligently adapting to different listening environments in real time. The result is clearer speech understanding and a more precise listening experience, even in noisy or complex surroundings.
This is complemented by MoreSound Intelligence, Oticon’s advanced sound processing technology that continuously scans, balances, and organizes sounds from all around the user. Rather than focusing only on speech directly in front, it helps users follow conversations while staying aware of the people and activity around them, creating a fuller and more balanced sound experience.
The Oticon Zeal system is built on the Sirius platform.
