A new article by me about #hearingloss (in German) and cool new #bluetooth tech.

digitalcourage.socialDoofe Ohren (@doofeohren@digitalcourage.social)Attached: 1 image Die Auracast-Zukunft schnuppern Mitte März fand in Köln der erste Tag und die Nacht der Hörgesundheit statt. Organisiert wurde das ganze vom Netzwerk Hörgesundheit, einer Gemeinschaft von Akustikern, die Hörgesundheit ganzheitlicher angehen als nur das Verkaufen von Hörgeräten. Ich hatte die Ehre, als Speakerin eingeladen zu sein, um bei einem Diskussionspanel von Betroffenen eure Stimme zu sein. Die Veranstaltung war sehr interessant und sehr gelungen (wie kann es auch anders sein, wenn ich da eingeladen bin ;) ) Eins meiner persönlichen Highlights dieser Veranstaltung war, dass ich hier zum ersten mal in den Genuss von Auracast kam. https://doofe-ohren.de/index.php/2025/04/01/die-auracast-zukunft-schnuppern/ #Hörgerät #Hörgeräte #Bluetooth #Kopfhörer #Auracast #LowEnergy #SilentDisco #Broadcast #BluetoothLEAudio #LEAudio

Uusi työkone, windows11 ja bluetooth kuulokkeet tarttis nyt äänen säätöä. Mukana tullut softa oli pultattu kai johonki tiettyyn kuulokkeeseen😠 en jaksanut ihmetellä enempää.
Nyt olisi tarjolla FxSound sovellus, onko kellään kokemusta tuosta? Ja saa toki ehdottaa muitakin, mieluusti open-source.

I’m aware it's pretty early in the technology cycle to ask this…

I’m looking for #Bluetooth LE Audio, #Auracast capable transmitters with audio input via XLR, ¼″/6.3mm or 3.5mm audio jack.
My (special) requirement would be to have < 10ms of latency, for live performances. The lower latency the better!

I’d like to explicitly support (modern) hearing aids, and headphones/earbuds.

15m range should be OK, for a roughly 100m² room.

Any hints on products available in the EU are welcome!

I won’t argue with results. It works & I love it, but why does it work?

Even though it supports HID it is still transmitting it over #Bluetooth LE and should not be compatible with a Classic Bluetooth #PDA. Whats going on here?

Looking up only the second line from the chip give us a different Cypress data sheet that lists Bluetooth 3.0!

Does this #Keyboard have a 2 in 1 chip? Both Classic and BLE for ultimate compatibility?

A shot from a different angle of the small rectangular circuit board inside the keyboard. Its mostly blue and yellow and has a close up of the Bluetooth chip.

These keyboards have been manufactured for years under different names. It’s also used a variety of different #Bluetooth chips over the years.

Whatever chip we have here, we struck gold!

It appears we have a Cypress CYW20730 chip. The data sheet confirms it’s a 5.1 BLE chip that supports HID profile 1.1.

I can’t believe it! Goal achieved.

The Arteck is a new easily obtainable & affordable #Keyboard. It connects to every persistent #WindowsMobile #PocketPC device that I tested! It’s driverless and the layout is almost perfect for it’s size. It’s also backlit!

I’m confused though. It’s #Bluetooth LE 5.1 and should not work with these Bluetooth Classic 1.2 and 2.0 devices. Whats going on here?

Lets crack it open and take a look.

4 of my iPaqs and my Dell Axim X51V fanned out around the keyboard. In the middle of them sits the Arteck keyboard. It is hard plastic and black in color. It has white lettering for the keys. The Dell Axim has Word Mobile loaded up.
My iPaq 210 displaying the connection status or the Arteck keyboard. It confirms that it is a Bluetooth 5.1 keyboard operating under the HID profile.
The Dell Axim X51V has Word Mobile loaded up and it reads: It’s a Keyboard Bonanza! And then proceeds to detail what we covered in the earlier posts.

Now the best for last! The Arteck HB030B #Bluetooth #Keyboard.

This is a cheap keyboard that you can still find new. It has a chiclet design, is backlit & doesn’t compromise much on the layout other than messing a bit with the Alt, Ctrl and Windows key button arrangement.

Amazingly this Bluetooth 5.1 keyboard connects to all of my iPaqs (111, 210, HX2495, HX2795b) & my #Dell Axim X51V using Passkey 1234!

4 of my iPaqs and my Dell Axim X51V lined up with the screens turned on. Below them sits the Arteck keyboard. It is hard plastic and black in color. It has white lettering on it’s chiclet style keys.

This is the #Ipad Kensington Key Folio Pro K39357US.

This #Bluetooth chiclet #Keyboard is fantastic! It is sleek, responsive and feels modern. It also has a decent layout and doesn’t forget the right shift key like the previous Key Folio.

Once again it effortlessly connected to all of my iPaqs (111, 210, HX2495, HX2795b) and surprisingly also connected to my #Dell Axim X51V using Passkey 1234!
