Advances in medicine with technolgy- Entry #3




This video is so beautiful. It shows how far technology has came in the medical world.A hearing aid this small and this efficient wouldn't have been possible 200 hundred years ago, or even 100 years ago. But because technology is far more advanced then it has ever been its making its mark in the medical field. 


This is what an old hearing aid generally looked like. Someone would talk directly into it and it'd sit deep and uncomfortably in your ear. If you were deaf or bad with hearing you'd have to carry this big and bulky instrument. It had no special features or even any features at all. 


This is modern day hearing aid. It's small, has a nice look to it, and can even look like a bluetooth hearing piece. It fits in a purse, wallet, or even a pocket. Say someone is speaking low, it manually adjusts the volume for you. It connects to an android or iPhone phone just like a bluetooth head-set would. It can pick up noises a far distance away and it reduced noisy background noises. A simple hearing aid shows how much technology has advanced and how much these advances are changing lives.
