Rent a system

Arrange a translated guiding system for a tour or event. Tell us the dates, location, group size and languages so we can plan the rental setup.

Discuss a rental

Connect your own system

Add IHOS live translation to compatible equipment you already use. Share the make and model; we review the audio connections and language channels first.

Check my equipment

Every quote starts with your languages, group size, equipment model and connections. We confirm the complete setup with you.

How the group hears you

  1. The guide speaks

    One live commentary, in the guide’s language.

  2. IHOS translates live

    The IHOS hub routes each translated audio feed.

  3. One language per channel

    A separate transmitter and channel carry each selected language.

  4. Guests hear on receivers

    Receivers are set to the guest’s language channel.

Phones can join, too

From IHOS, audio can also reach guests through a QR link in their phone browser. Plan receivers, phones or a mix for the same group.

Plan a mixed group

Where internet is needed

The guide and IHOS hub need internet for cloud translation. Receiver listeners need neither a phone nor mobile data. Guests listening in a phone browser need their own internet connection.

What about questions?

OTG-200 and D220 both support hardware talk-back. That radio feature is separate from a translated return path through ihos. Phone guests can ask translated questions; we can demonstrate that workflow in an arranged product walkthrough. Translated receiver talk-back is checked separately for your setup.

The next chapter of the guided tour

One device.
A new way
to guide.

We’re developing an all-in-one IHOS device for live tour translation. The ambition: bring a guide’s core workflow into one portable format, with more attention on the people and places around them.

Concept render. Final design and specifications may change.

Less to manage.
More room for the tour.

Three proposed design goals. The feature set, connections and final specifications are still being developed.

    Language controls in reach

    Explore a clear way to see and manage the languages a group needs, on the device itself.

  3. 03

    A format made to move

    Study a portable form that feels at home on a walking tour, a museum visit or a group excursion.

A tour to plan now.
A device to shape next.

before we talk.

Is the new IHOS device available?

The device is in development. The images show a design concept. Availability, price and final specifications will be shared when confirmed.

What does “all-in-one” mean at this stage?

It describes our design direction: bringing the guide’s tour-translation workflow and language controls into one purpose-built device. Its final functions and connectivity are still being defined.

Will it connect to my existing tour receivers?

Compatibility for the upcoming device has not been confirmed. For a tour you are planning now, talk to us about the current IHOS phone or hub-and-receiver setup.
