How it Works

• The sound processor captures the sound and converts it into digital code.
• The sound processor transmits the digitally coded sound through the coil to the implant.
• The implant converts the digitally coded sound to electrical impulses and sends them along the electrode array, which is positioned in the cochlea.
• The implant’s electrodes stimulate the auditory nerve, which then sends the impulses to the brain where they are interpreted as sound.
