Canine with Hearing Protection and Goggles (IMAGE)

The Canine Auditory Protection System, known as CAPS, is designed to prevent short-term hearing loss in military working dogs, which can result from high-decibel noise in training, transport and operations. (Courtesy: Zeteo Tech) A research team tests the Canine Auditory Protection System headgear extensively with military working dogs, as well as federal law enforcement working dogs, for wearability, usability and comfort. The team also measures the hearing protection effectiveness during helicopter operations and found a significant reduction in short-term hearing loss. (Courtesy: Zeteo Tech) The Canine Auditory Protection System, resembling a close-fitting hood, uniformly distributes the pressure required to hold the dogs' hearing protection in place, while avoiding challenges associated with straps. It is also compatible with other gear used by working dogs, such as goggles.
