About Us

SHRC research focuses on the science and technology used to develop new diagnostic and amplification solutions.The SHRC is a division of Starkey Laboratories, Inc., a global leader in hearing technology. The research conducted at the Center is focused on two primary tracks: auditory perceptual science and signal processing technology.

Basic psychoacoustic and speech research assists in developing new signal processing algorithms, new diagnostic-based fitting procedures, and new patient-benefit validation approaches.

Signal processing research enhances the functionality of digital hearing instruments and improves both sound quality and speech understanding for the hearing impaired.
