Binaural Spatial Mapping Available in LOOK Premier and Pro. This innovative protocol queries, analyzes, and maps the acoustic space surrounding the patient, applying the appropriate signal processing strategy for directionality and noise management.
Vivid Speech2 nearly doubles the noise reduction capability of our leading noise reduction and speech preservation system while still maintaining speech. Vivid Speech2:
• Instantly applies variable noise adaptation in all channels between each pause
• Has been proven to reduce listening effort and cognitive fatigue when used in tandem with ClearFocus 2*
• Provides up to 20dB of noise reduction
Speech Shift This new frequency lowering technology is a smart solution for patients who have steeply sloping, high-frequency hearing loss. It is designed to enhance real-time audibility by intelligently identifying high-frequency speech cues – then replicating them in lower frequencies.
Sound Enhancements Our signal processing architecture has been updated to enhance the overall sound quality and efficiency of LOOK, including new vent modeling, automatic vent detection, improved compression and updated eSTAT targets.
Vivid Speech Boost Activated via SurfLink™ Remote, this feature allows patients to enable aggressive noise reduction while optimizing sound quality in extremely noisy situations.
Self Learning gradually and automatically learns patient volume control preferences in each active memory, which helps reduce the number of manual volume control adjustments patients need to make.
Active Feedback Suppressor This leading technology ensures wide fitting ranges and a fast response to more complex feedback.
HydraShield®2 NuEar’s proprietary moisture protection system integrates a new oleophobic nano-coating designed to better protect hearing aids from earwax and other oily substances making LOOK more reliable and durable than ever before.

Measurement Conditions and Recommendations
The data for LOOK are obtained and performance is expressed according to ANSI S3.22 (2003), ANSI S3.7 (1995), ANSI C63.19 (2007), IEC 60118-7 (2005), IEC 60711 (1981), DIN 45605 (1989) and IEC 60118-0 (1983) with Amendment 1 (1994-01). The NuEar proprietary Real Time Analyzer and the NuEar Automated Design Verification Test System comprise the basic test equipment. Data may be subject to change with product refinement.
Because of the adaptive signal processing capabilities of LOOK hearing instruments, the hearing instrument must be set to test mode to compare the actual performance of the hearing instrument with these specifications. LOOK hearing instruments may be set to test mode with Inspire® by reading the hearing aid and selecting the “Hearing Aid Test” screen from the menu on the left side of the Inspire window, then selecting the “Full on Gain” button.
