The Simeon Audita III seems poised to transform communication in the classroom. It’s the first sound system in the country to use Auracast™ technology — streaming directly to Auracast-enabled hearing aids, cochlear implants and other assistive listening devices.
The system includes a speaker and three color-coded pass-around microphones. It’s compact and portable — no heavier than a small boombox.
Teachers across the country are reporting reduced vocal strain and voice fatigue, especially due to the Voice Priority feature, which ensures they can always speak over multimedia by automatically lowering external audio and amplifying their voice.
Amber, a teacher for deaf and hard of hearing students, said: “The Simeon Audita is the best soundfield system teachers in my district have used. They love how portable it is, and many take it to the gym and outside on the field for PE and school photos, in addition to using it in their classrooms.”
This system is a prime example of universal design, as it not only helps students with hearing impairment but improves communication for everyone involved, whether they’re in a lecture hall or out on the football field.

It is honestly refreshing to see Auracast technology being utilized in classrooms like this. Vocal strain is such a common struggle for teachers, so having a portable system that actually improves clarity for everyone is a game-changer. I love that it’s inclusive for students with hearing needs while benefiting the entire class. This kind of thoughtful design really makes a huge difference in an educational environment.
