Roger Touchscreen Microphone 3 Unlimited
The Roger Touchscreen Mic is a classroom microphone for both the teacher and students. It is fully automatic and can adaptively change between Lanyard mode, Small Group mode and Pointing mode depending on its location. Teachers can wear this microphone around their neck or place on a table to detect speech from a group of students.
Roger Multimedia Hub
The Roger Multi Media Hub can be connected to any multimedia device used in a classroom. This can range from smartboards and TVs to computers and videos.
The device can also be connected as a standalone media transmitter by an individual for connecting and listening to a tablet, audiobook, or a lesson on a computer.
When the Roger Multimedia Hub is used in a network with the Touchscreen Micr, the new audio mixing feature allows a teacher’s voice to be heard simultaneously with an audio signal.
Pass Around Microphone
The Roger Pass Around Mic is a handheld microphone used with the Phonak Touchscreen Mic radio aid transmitter.
As part of the classroom system, the microphone is placed in it’s sturdy yet lightweight stand on the students desks. One microphone is required per two to three students. In a larger setting, it can also pass easily from one student to another. This allows any students/teachers with hearing loss to clearly hear both the teacher and classmates comments.

How does the system work?
The Roger Touchscreen Mic, Multimedia Hub, and Passaround microphones connect to create a Roger Network. They send the audio via radio frequency to the neckloop receivers worn by those who are hard of hearing. The loop around the neck creates the hearing or “induction’ loop. This loop creates an electromagnetic field that is picked up by the t-coil in the hearing aid. The hearing aid then converts this back into speech sound for the user to hear.
