Building Better Hearing Technology
H.E.A.Research · Co-Founder & CTO
We are co-founding H.E.A.Research Private Limited to fundamentally redesign how auditory healthcare is delivered. Traditional hearing aids carry heavy social stigmas and cost thousands of dollars. We are developing an elegant, consumer-first neckband form-factor that democratizes high-fidelity active voice isolation.
The Barriers to Auditory Wellness
Social Stigma
Traditional in-ear hearing aids are associated with physical decline, causing massive psychological barriers to early adoption.
Prohibitive Costs
Medical-grade audiology devices routinely cost thousands of dollars per ear, pricing out vast segments of emerging markets.
Poor Acoustic Comfort
Generic noise amplification models simply amplify everything, causing acoustic overload and severe brain fatigue in loud spaces.
Redefining the Embedded Pipeline
As Chief Technology Officer, I lead the core product design team. We avoid heavy bloated software abstractions, targeting high-density 4-layer custom PCB designs and microsecond audio-buffer handling to achieve clinical medical efficacy inside consumer form factors.
- Real-Time Operating System (RTOS)Running low-latency thread schedules to manage audio streaming, DSP filters, and Bluetooth controllers concurrently without jitter.
- Custom DSP AcousticsActive noise suppression and directional mic alignment scripts mapping spatial frequencies into a dynamic auditory envelope.
- Rigid Industrial DesignSleek, premium, ergonomic neckband crafted from light polymers, hosting powerful rechargeable cells that support 20h+ battery life.
