Revolutionary New Forbrain® Headset Launches To Aid Speech and Auditory Processing With Patented Technology

A pioneering start-up has launched an innovative headset to improve speech and auditory processing, from early years through to the golden years. Forbrain® is a revolutionary patented device to aid speech and auditory processing using a natural process of auditory feedback.

Designed for children and adults with speech difficulties, including problems with pronunciation, articulation, and fluency, the easy-to-use device may also enhance memory and concentration as Forbrain® sharpens the user’s entire auditory system. The headset needs to be worn for just a few minutes per day, with early testers reporting improved levels of self-confidence and energy while tasks such as homework and work projects become easier.

The headset uses groundbreaking technologies to create an enhanced audio-vocal loop, helping users to improve their speech. Similar to audio-vocal loops used by speech-language pathologists and speech therapists Forbrain® by Sound for Life is the first device of its kind created specifically for at home use.

The Forbrain® design is based on years of sound therapy research into bone conduction transducers and a dynamic audio filter. Developed in coordination with Aftershokz LLC, the world leader in bone conduction tech, Forbrain® uses transducers placed on the facial bones just outside the ears. The sound resonates through the facial bones, which the brain then processes via sensory integration into crystal clear speech. The electronic dynamic filter instantly analyzes and enhances the user’s voice, amplifying the frequencies, rhythms, and colour to help users comprehend and adjust their voice.

As Forbrain® is designed for at-home use, it’s an ideal tool for speech-language pathologists and occupational therapists. It can be used to ensure clients practice between sessions, leading to greater improvement in a shorter timeframe.

James Thorburn, Marketing Manager of Forbrain UK said, “Sound starts its journey when captured by your outer ears, travelling in air through several structures within the ear, then translated by your nervous system and your brain for use as information to live in the world.

“In those with normal hearing, sound waves enter the outer ear and travel through the middle ear to the ossicles, three small bones, which transmit sound vibrations to the cochlea vestibule nerve in the inner ear. It is mainly through this bone conduction that pronunciation process is achieved. Construction of pronunciation skills and awareness of speech clarity evolves from bone conduction – this is needed for phonological awareness or awareness of language.

“As humans, we respond to sounds in our environments. When those sounds introduce too many thoughts in our brains, they cause our nervous systems to over-react and we feel less confident, eroding our self-esteem and motivation. Forbrain® works directly on the nervous system and amplifies bone conduction and natural air conduction. It works with an individual’s voice to process information more clearly and help them to understand communications better, reducing sound clutter in the brain for those with sensory integration issues and auditory processing disorders, such as speech delays.”

Forbrain® is priced at £259, including a user guide, an educational support guide, 3-5 day delivery, and a 2-year warranty. An affiliate program for speech therapists is also available, with thousands of Forbrain® headsets already in use by people with sensory integration issues and auditory processing disorders, such as speech delays.
