join your audiologist in the metaverse
Meta Hearing is a concept that would allow you to meet with your audiologist in the Metaverse in the future.

new generation of hearing assessment
Audiometry was invented in 1919 and hasn’t changed much since. However, our understanding of the auditory system has advanced dramatically. We now know that this test is limited in it’s ability to understand your hearing profile.
Using your VR headset we place you in to our metaverse which is designed using calibrated augmented audio signals to test your functional hearing ability in a range of real world situations.
HOW DO WE DO THIS?
We are able to measure your listening effort by monitoring your pupil size, eye movement and head movement using the eye tracking and head movement features on your VR headset.
During the assessment your audiologist will change your environment by adding additional speakers, adjusting distance from the person you are engaging with and altering the level and type of background noise.
why use meta Hearing?
The benefits of using the Metaverse for your hearing assessment:
seamless communication
If you are struggling to hear we can implement live captioning so you can read every word as it is spoken.
connection from anywhere
Your geographical location is no longer a restriction on the quality of audiological care you receiver.
Easy payment
We accept crypto tokens for payment for all of our services and products. If you prefer, we still accept fiat currency too.
Real world listening
Our real world listening assessment measures your cognitive load and listening effort in a wide range of social situations.
download your profile
After your assessment is complete you can download your profile on to your hearing technology of choice.
always available
Our clinicians are situated all over the world and so someone is always awake to support you with your problems.
Your hearing profile
Your hearing profile is as unique as your finger print. We use a classification system to create your profile that relies on three varying factors:
“i finally understand my hearing”
I booked in with the Meta Hearing for an initial assessment. I was a little sceptical at first because I was used to seeing my audiologist in clinic. I couldn’t believe the difference in the assessment and after wearing hearing aids for nearly 15 years, I finally understand my hearing profile.
Hearing Technology Wearer
revolutionary hearing care
Meta Hearing is at the forefront of hearing healthcare innovation. We are following trends in VR / AR and the metaverse to ensure we can deliver you our dream at the soonest possible convenience.
project aria
Imagine a pair of glasses that add a 3D layer of useful, contextually-relevant, and meaningful information on top of the physical world. Facebook are currently trying to achieve this with Project Aria.
The glasses will combine beamforming, deep learning techniques, active noise cancellation, and contextual awareness of your surroundings, to help you to hear in every situation.
