The Livio Ai Is a huge step forward for hearing loss.  Colin Eaton the lead audiologist in the Torbay area and Teighnmouth, suggest that even with mild hearing loss having a yearly hearing test could really improve your quality of life. We are all happy to have eye tests as we can clearly see there maybe some deterioration of sight, but hearing is a sense so we really do need to keep on top of hearing also.

The integrated 3D motion sensors inside Livio AI enable the hearing aids to detect movement, track activities, and recognize gestures.
