Active Noise Cancelling Sensory Headphones | NDIS Auditory Regulation Aid

Navigate unpredictable environments safely and comfortably with the Soundcore Q30 Hybrid Active Noise Cancelling Headphones. Classified as low cost assistive technology, these over-ear headphones are a vital sensory management tool for NDIS participants living with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), ADHD, or anxiety.

Standard environments like shopping centres, public transport, or busy offices can trigger severe auditory overload, leading to distress and behavioural dysregulation. These headphones utilise advanced dual noise-detecting microphones to actively reduce up to 95% of external low-frequency noise. Featuring three specific environmental modes (Indoor, Outdoor, and Transport), participants can perfectly customise their auditory boundary to match their surroundings. By creating a controlled, quiet baseline, users can prevent sensory meltdowns, sustain focus during daily tasks, and engage more confidently in the community without the exhaustion of auditory processing strain.

How This Device Supports NDIS Participants

• Auditory Sensory Regulation: Actively filters up to 95% of distressing low-frequency background noise, instantly calming the nervous system and preventing auditory overload in public spaces.

• Facilitating Community Access: The specialised Transport and Outdoor modes empower individuals who typically avoid loud environments to confidently use public transport and access the community, directly supporting social inclusion goals.

• Cognitive Focus & Executive Function: By filtering out distracting environmental noise, it assists users with ADHD or Acquired Brain Injuries (ABI) to maintain concentration during school, work, or therapy sessions.

• Preventing Sensory Fatigue: The ultra-soft memory foam earcups provide comfortable, passive noise isolation, allowing for extended wear without causing pressure headaches or tactile hypersensitivity.

Key Features & Benefits
