Israeli company ניואנס has developed a new device called סאונד סלקטור that helps students with attention and concentration problems to overcome their difficulties and maximize their learning experience during lectures and lessons. The device filters background noise and focuses the sound on the teacher or lecturer. Research conducted on the device showed improvement in listening ability, even when the seating position was far from the teacher. The device, which is connected to headphones and includes a system of 8 microphones, identifies the direction from which each sound comes and weakens background noise. The company aims to help students with ADHD and other attention disorders. The device has received positive feedback and is considered a significant breakthrough in the field.
