Oticon Hearing Aids
Oticon is the flagship brand of Demant A/S of Denmark, the world's second-largest hearing aid manufacturer, founded in 1904. Oticon is known for its BrainHearing philosophy — a design approach built on the principle that hearing aids should support how the brain naturally processes sound, rather than simply amplifying or filtering it.
BLUEMOTH carries the Oticon Real 1 miniBTE R — a prescription-grade behind-the-ear hearing aid powered by Oticon's Polaris R chip and Deep Neural Network technology. Every unit is programmed by a BLUEMOTH audiologist to your specific audiogram before delivery.

What makes Oticon Real different
Oticon's approach is built on BrainHearing — the idea that the brain, not the hearing aid, should remain in control of how you listen. Here is what the Real delivers.
BrainHearing and Open Sound
Rather than reducing background noise and amplifying only speech — the traditional approach — Oticon Real processes and balances the full sound scene to give the brain optimized input from all types of meaningful sounds. This 360-degree approach is designed to reduce listening effort over time.
Deep Neural Network — 12 Million Sounds
Oticon's onboard Deep Neural Network was trained on over 12 million real-life sound scenes. The MoreSound Intelligence 2.0 system scans your sound environment 500 times per second, continuously organizing and delivering sound based on this AI training.
Wind and Handling Stabilizer
Oticon Real introduced the industry's first wind and handling noise prevention feature. The Wind & Handling Stabilizer detects and eliminates wind noise and the sound of the hearing aid being touched — reducing distracting sounds that previous platforms could not address.
Sudden Sound Stabilizer
Trained on 500,000 sudden sounds, this feature recognizes and instantly reduces sudden loud noises — making them audible but not uncomfortable. This reduces listening effort by 22% compared to Oticon More, without compromising speech audibility.
Bluetooth Streaming — iOS and Android
Oticon Real supports hands-free calls from iPhone and iPad via MFi (Made for iPhone) Bluetooth. Android streaming is supported via compatible devices using the ASHA protocol. Includes Bluetooth wireless technology for hands-free communication and seamless device connectivity.
Tinnitus SoundSupport
Oticon Real includes built-in Tinnitus SoundSupport — a customizable tinnitus relief program that your BLUEMOTH audiologist can configure to your individual tinnitus profile. Accessible through the hearing aid app.

The Oticon Approach
Why BrainHearing matters
Understanding Oticon's philosophy helps you know whether it is the right fit for you.
Most hearing aids are designed to do one thing: reduce background noise and bring speech forward. Oticon's BrainHearing approach takes a different position. Rather than deciding which sounds are worth hearing and filtering the rest, Oticon Real processes the full sound environment and presents it to the brain in a balanced, organized way — preserving the full soundscape while making speech more accessible.
The Deep Neural Network is central to this. Trained on 12 million real-life sound scenes, it identifies and balances meaningful sounds — not by suppressing everything else, but by optimizing how the full scene is delivered. This approach is designed to reduce the listening effort that hearing aid wearers typically experience in complex environments, allowing the brain to work more naturally over time.
For wearers who have felt that other hearing aids sound "processed" or who want a more natural, immersive listening experience, Oticon's approach is often the right match. Your BLUEMOTH audiologist will help you determine whether Oticon Real's open sound philosophy is the best fit for your hearing loss and lifestyle.
