Sophono Bone Conduction Hearing Systems
"The Sophono Bone Conduction Hearing Systems are a family of sound processors and accessories that operate on the principle of Bone Conduction (BC) of sound vibrations. The Sophono Bone Conduction Hearing Systems transmits audio vibrations through the skin into the bone where sound is sensed by the inner ear/cochlea.~The Sophono Sound Processor is magnetically attracted to the Magnetic Implant and Magnetic Spacer. The Magnetic Implant, which is secured to the skull bone, affixes the Magnetic Spacer to the head transcutaneously through magnetic attraction forces, and the Sound Processor is magnetically affixed to the Magnetic Spacer. Vibration from the Sound Processor is transduced through the Magnetic Spacer to the Magnetic Implant and through the bone to the inner ear."
