Sharp announced on August 31 that it had established a capital alliance with medical device manufacturing distributors (NCI) in June 2020 to create a new medical solution using ICT.

As the first part of the collaboration results, we jointly commercialized the ear -type hearing aid "Medical Listening Plug".It will be released after mid -September 2021, and the product price is 99,800 yen (tax exempt).

The hearing aid is a product that focuses on the fact that in addition to the low ownership of hearing aids in hearing loss, the number of people who are aware of the difficulty of wearing masks and online meetings is increasing.We provide hearing check and fitting support by certified hearing aid technicians while providing basic performance as a hearing aid.As the infection is expanding, the company plans to develop it as a solution to dispel concerns about face -to -face services.

The two companies will continue to use ICT to create new products and services that support medical problems in the medical field.
