Remote Microphone (RM) systems (some of which are commonly referred to as Frequency Modulation or FM systems) are devices that transmit a speaker's voice from a transmitter to a receiver on a hearing aid or cochlear implant sound processor, or to a receiver in a soundfield system for students who do not wear amplification devices on their ears. In an educational environment, the purpose of the system is to provide a student with proper access to the teacher's instruction or the voices of other speakers in the room. The system allows the student to hear a speaker's voice above any other noises happening within the classroom.
If your student uses an RM system it will look like one of these. Click on the systemthat your student uses to find specific tips for using each transmitter.
