| SENS®technology is a revolutionary technology invented by Sensear. It perfects the combination of speech enhancement and noise suppression technologies with a complex set of patented algorithms enabling what has previously been impossible, the ability to produce high quality speech audibility and optimum hearing protection in environments with noise levels above 85dB(A). Speech Enhancement Sensear’s revolutionary speech enhancement technology isolates and enhances speech in real-time, enabling users to hear speech clearly and safely in environments that until now has been impossible. Sensear’s speech enhancement technology is effective for mobile phone calls and two-way radio communication as it enhances the wearer’s speech and lowers background noise for the call receiver. Noise Suppression Sensear’s SENS®technology recognises the different properties of speech and background noise thereby allowing noise to be suppressed without distorting the speech. The technology reduces background noise to comfortable levels while retaining the original sound characteristics of noise. This allows users to retain awareness of their surroundings for optimum safety. Bluetooth® Sensear’s x models incorporate Bluetooth® technology, enabling pairing and subsequent connection with mobile phones so that users can take and make mobile phone calls without removing hearing protection. SENS®technology + Bluetooth® means lower background noise for the call receiver, enabling natural and comfortable communication with the wearer.

The Sensear SP1 and SP1x (Bluetooth®) earplugs have been designed for comfort, quality and endurance in the field, enabling clear communication above 85dB(A) without the need to remove hearing protection. Sensear’s SP1 and SP1x earplugs feature SENS®technology, a radical new innovation unique to Sensear products and the latest and most effective advance in the fight to eliminate Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL) recognised by the World Health Organisation as the most common occupational illness globally. |
