Concept introduction video

While many hearing amplifiers help seniors deal with hearing loss, its size make touch controls hard for seniors to use due to tactile deterioration, and accompany app icons are often too abstract to understand. SHENNONA HEAR is a hearing am-plifier that simplifies device-to-app relations through physical mapping, so besides touch controls on device, the app has an exact replica of the amplifiers in images so seniors with tactile difficulty can easily understand and adjust settings on their phones. Controls are clear, intuitive and done by association like move volume bar UP to increase sound, while UI mapping provides guidance throughout for more as-surance.
