In average, people are more relaxed and calm under noise level below 50 dB. They will be more focused and are more pleasant (when we communicate with each other, the noise level is around 50 dB to 60 dB). When noise level reaches 70 dB, people start to lose focus, and are more anxious and nervous. If they are constantly exposed to noise level above 85 dB with no protective measures, hearing can be severely damaged.

Passive System Alliance (PSA) Charitable Foundations have been caring for the hearing impaired children since founded. Statistics shows that there are 3 out of a thousand infants who are born with hearing loss worldwide. In Taiwan, there are estimated 300 infants with severe hearing loss, while 95% of them can still regain hearing and speaking abilities with stimulus listening equipment and enough training. Therefore, hopefully through hearing aid and equipment donation and with professional and continuous training, every hearing impaired child can listen clearly again.

n 2012, “Reduce Noise, Provide Silence” program has become PSA’s new focus. In order for everyone in the society to really understand the importance of noise pollution, PSA combined old social issue with new technology, integrated the concept of noise control with mobile application “Noise Catcher”.
