Wegmans Installs Induction Hearing Loops

Wegmans Food Markets, out of Rochester, NY, with stores in six states, is beginning to install Induction Hearing Loops in pharmacies at some of their stores

Induction Hearing Loops work with many modern hearing aids to bring clear sound to the hearing aid.

Here’s how hearing loop systems work - a condenser microphone built into a service counter or checkout lane captures the sound of an employee speaking. A “smart” amplifier removes background noise and sends the clarified sound to an induction loop, which converts it into a wireless electromagnetic field. The T-coil in a hearing aid or cochlear implant acts like an antenna, picking up the signal and delivering the sound directly from the source to the ear.

Congratulation, Wegmans, for helping hearing challenged people.
