An FM system is made up of a microphone and transmitter worn by a teacher/parent and a receiver worn by a child/student. These systems are commonly used to transmit sound from one person to another over distance, overcoming the effects of noise, reverberation and distance.
a device used by individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing and also by others who have attention issues
an assistive listening device that consists of a transmitter hooked to the speaker and a receiver hooked to the deaf person
a transmitter which broadcasts the signals by radio waves from the sound source directly to a receiver worn by the consumer
a two-part device worn by the student (who wears the receiver) and the professor (who wears the transmitter) which improves the performance of a hearing aid
Frequency Modulated system. This is a wireless assistive listening system (ALD) that can be used by deaf or hard of hearing individuals or groups to better hear what is being said in meetings, classrooms, workshops, and other situations. FM systems utilize radio frequencies to transmit sound signals.
An assistive listening device which transmits speech picked up from a microphone on an FM radio frequency; special receivers are worn by hard of hearing persons or deaf persons so that they can hear the transmitted message. In a small group of fifteen or fewer people, it is possible to place two or three microphones along the table, allowing the person(s) using the device to participate fully in the discussion.
Frequency modulated (FM) systems are standard equipment for children with hearing loss in educational settings. FM systems are sometimes called auditory trainers.
a local wireless broadcast system that consists of a microphone and transmitter for the speaker and "walkman-like" receivers with headphones for listeners with hearing impairements or attention disorders.
An assistive listening device worn by the speaker to amplify his/her voice and transmit it directly to the listener's ears via an electronic receiver and special earphones or the listener's own hearing aids. The device reduces the problem of background noise interference and the problem of distance between speaker and hearing-impaired listener.
