AURACAST SA COMMUNITY VENUE PILOT
Can your venue help South Australia hear better?
HearHere Australia is looking for five South Australian community venues to take part in an early Auracast™ rollout planned for November 2026.
Churches • Community centres • Clubs • Community halls • Meeting & event spaces
WHEN WE HEAR, WE'RE MORE HERE
Accessible listening in shared spaces.
A HearHere Australia community accessibility initiative using Audeara Auracast technology.
WHY WE'RE DOING THIS
Shared spaces aren't always easy to hear in.
Busy or reverberant spaces, background noise, distance from the speaker and room acoustics can make announcements, presentations, services and events difficult to follow.
This can particularly affect people with hearing difficulties, but clearer access to sound can benefit many people.
WHAT IS AURACAST™?
One broadcast. Many listeners.
Auracast™ is a new generation of Bluetooth broadcast audio. Traditional Bluetooth usually connects one source to one device. Auracast allows a venue to broadcast the same audio to many compatible personal devices at the same time.
The venue broadcasts the sound, and people nearby choose to connect using a compatible hearing aid, implant, headphones, earbuds or receiver.
HOW IT WORKS
Three simple steps.
Auracast adds another way for people to receive the same audio already being used in the venue.
Venue Audio
A small broadcaster connects to the venue's existing TV or sound system.
Auracast Broadcast
The same sound is transmitted wirelessly through the space.
Listen Your Way
Patrons connect with their compatible personal listening device.
THE SOUTH AUSTRALIAN PILOT
Could your venue be one of our first five?
We're seeking five South Australian venues where clearer listening could make a genuine difference to participation and inclusion.
We aim to complete the first installations in early November 2026.
South Australian community venues
The pilot will demonstrate accessible shared listening in everyday South Australian community spaces and help inform a wider rollout.
GOOD PILOT VENUES INCLUDE
Is your venue a good fit?
We're interested in community spaces where clearer listening could make a genuine difference to participation and inclusion.
WHAT THE PROJECT INVOLVES
A practical, supported pilot.
Reviewing your existing audio setup.
Supplying and installing an Auracast broadcaster.
Testing the listening experience and coverage.
Providing simple information for staff and patrons.
Supporting you to promote your venue as Auracast-enabled.
INDICATIVE PILOT COST
including installation
Final cost will depend on the venue's existing sound system and the installation required.
The pilot will help demonstrate accessible shared listening in everyday South Australian community spaces and inform a wider rollout.
WHAT COULD THIS MEAN FOR YOUR COMMUNITY?
More ways to hear. More ways to participate.
Clearer listening
Direct audio can reduce the effect of distance, background noise and challenging room acoustics.
Choice and control
People can listen through their own compatible device and adjust their personal listening level.
Inclusive participation
People can remain part of the same event and sit where they choose rather than using a separate listening area.
A future-ready venue
Auracast is designed to work with a growing range of compatible hearing aids, implants, headphones, earbuds and receivers.
