By including 3D motion sensors like an accelerometer and gyroscope, Livio AI hearing aids are able to detect movement and gestures and give a more reliable readout of your steps and activity. Starkey Livio A.I. is not only an amazing hearing aid, but it incorporates AI (artificial intelligence) for things like detecting if the user falls, activating emergency system alerts, and measuring biometric data like heart rate, etc. Contact us if you would like to learn more about the very impressive Livio AI.
