Lantos Technologies is working to commercialize a 3D digital scanner capable of measuring ear canal shape and tissue compliance.
This method will eliminate the uncertainties associated with manual fits, greatly improving the performance of custom-made ear products. This technology enables audiologists to eliminate the uncomfortable, messy and error-prone technique used to generate impressions of the ear canal.
