Stay protected, connected, and aware
Aware Technology™ protects you from dangerous noises while allowing you to communicate with others and hear the world around you.
Explaining Aware Technology™
Aware Technology™ improves your situational awareness by:
- Amplifying the safe sounds around you that you want to hear.
- Blocking the damaging noises around you that you don’t want to hear.

"Hearing protection is important when working around loud noises, but it can sometimes reduce awareness of what’s going on around you.
With ISOtunes Aware, not only do I get my hearing protection, but also complete awareness of my surroundings. Now I'm able to have conversations with those I’m working with."

Wear hearing protection and still hear the world and those around you
Aware Technology™ uses microphones to pick up outside sounds and amplifies them through your hearing protector, similar to a hearing aid or enhancer. Aware volume buttons allow you to choose your preferred amplification level. This means you can wear hearing protection and still hear the world and those around you at a comfortable listening level.
the right hearing protection based on your working environment
When outside noises breach 85 dB, Aware Technology™ responds by relaying the sound at 85 dB or cutting out the sound completely. Aware uses digital circuitry to react within milliseconds. You react with confidence and peace of mind. The Aware Technology™ experiences differ based on the ISOtunes product you choose. Take advantage of the right hearing protection based on your working environment.
Great for those who work in sporadically loud environments.
Aware Technology™ is great for those who work in sporadically loud environments. Noises like nail guns and hammers will be dampened or restricted completely by Aware Technology™ while safe environmental sounds will be amplified. In consistently loud environments, such as with lawn mowers or sanders, Aware Technology™ will block all sound until the outside noise falls below 85dB. In these cases, we recommend turning Aware Technology™ completely off until you’re done working in that environment.
How does it work?
Omni-directional microphones amplify the sounds around you through your hearing protector. When these microphones sense a loud noise, like a nail gun or hammer, they quickly lower the volume to protect your ears.
The graphic below displays how Aware Technology™ lowers the volume quickly, holds the lower volume for the designated period, then transitions back to normal listening.
