4 Sound Processor uses direct bone
conduction to transmit sounds to the cochlea (inner ear).
It works by combining a sound processor and a small
titanium implant that is placed in the skull behind the
ear. The skull bone integrates with the titanium implant
through a process called osseointegration. This allows
sound to be conducted via the skull bone directly to the
cochlea, which improves hearing performance.
