ReSound Vivia

The ReSound Vivia represents a major advancement in hearing technology, combining artificial intelligence with a compact design. This micro-receiver-in-ear (microRIE) hearing aid uses a Deep Neural Network (DNN) trained on 13.5 million spoken sentences across multiple languages to deliver superior speech clarity in noisy environments.

Performance and Technology

The Vivia's dual-chip AI technology processes sound in a way that mirrors natural hearing. Its Intelligent Focus feature tracks the direction you're looking and prioritizes relevant sounds, making conversations easier to follow in challenging environments like restaurants or family gatherings.

The DNN chip enables 17 times more efficient sound processing compared to previous technologies. It can perform 4.9 trillion operations daily to highlight speech and reduce background noise. Research shows that 64% of users experience improved speech comprehension in noise with the Vivia compared to other AI-assisted hearing aids.

Battery Life and Charging

The Vivia offers impressive battery performance:

• Up to 30 hours of regular use on a single charge
• 20 hours when using Intelligent Focus and streaming
• 10 hours of continuous DNN-powered Intelligent Focus
• Quick charge option: 2.7 hours of use from a 10-minute charge

Models and Features

The Vivia comes in three models:

• MicroRIE (rechargeable)
• RIE 61 (312 battery)
• RIE 62 (13 battery with telecoil)

All models include app control and programmable push buttons. The microRIE adds tap controls, and a CROS version is available for single-sided deafness. The Vivia comes in 10 color options, including Navy Blue and Red.

Connectivity

The Vivia features Bluetooth LE Audio 5.2 and Auracast compatibility, allowing:

• Direct audio streaming from Apple iOS and Android devices
• Hands-free calls from compatible Apple iOS devices
• Access to Auracast broadcasts in public spaces
• Connection to the ReSound Smart 3D app with Auracast Assistant

Durability

The Vivia maintains an IP68 rating—the highest protection level against debris and moisture. New replaceable microphone filter covers reduce repair needs and extend the device's lifespan.

Sound Processing

The AI system learns from user adjustments to improve performance in various listening situations. The technology preserves beneficial background sounds while reducing disruptive noise, creating a balanced listening experience that supports natural hearing processes.
