The Phonak DPC is a family of electronic hearing protection devices with bi-directional radio or phone communication capabilities. The system provides dynamic level-dependent hearing protection in severe noise environments such as heavy industry plants, aviation, etc.

dlab was entrusted with simulating and implementing the audio/acceleration processing related methods.

To be able to detect the devices orientation reliably within a short time period, even when vibrations are present, an innovative algorithm has been developed.

A set of new audio features implemented by dlab have significantly improved listening comfort in severe noise conditions. Moreover, dlab has redesigned the existing software framework. This greatly increased maintainability of the code base and made it more future-proof to total satisfaction of the customer.
