Facilitating a bone conduction otoacoustic emission test

A bone conduction otoacoustic emission (OAE) testing apparatus, comprising:

• a pressure sensor device to be placed at a first position on a head of a subject;
• a bone transducer device to be placed at a second position on the head of the subject;
• a microphone device to be placed in an ear canal of an ear of the subject;
• and
• a control device to:
• cause the pressure sensor device to determine an amount of pressure the bone conduction OAE testing apparatus is exerting on the head of the subject;
• determine that the amount of pressure satisfies a threshold;
• cause, based on determining that the amount of pressure satisfies the threshold, the bone transducer device to generate a first audio signal at a first frequency and a second audio signal at a second frequency;
• cause the microphone device to capture audio data concerning the ear;
• and
• provide the audio data to permit a device to determine whether the audio data includes an OAE.

A bone conduction otoacoustic emission (OAE) testing apparatus, comprising:

• a pressure sensor device to be placed at a first position on a head of a subject;
• a first bone transducer device to be placed at a second position on the head of the subject;
• a second bone transducer device to be placed at a third position on the head of the subject;
• a first microphone device to be placed in an ear canal of a first ear of the subject;
• a second microphone device to be placed in an ear canal of a second ear of the subject;
• and
• a control device to:
• cause the pressure sensor device to determine an amount of pressure the bone conduction OAE testing apparatus is exerting on the head of the subject;
• determine that the amount of pressure satisfies a threshold;
• cause, based on determining that the amount of pressure satisfies the threshold, the first bone transducer device to generate one or more first audio signals and the second bone transducer device to generate one or more second audio signals;
• cause the first microphone device to capture first audio data concerning the first ear and the second microphone device to capture second audio data concerning the second ear;
• send the first audio data to permit a device to determine whether the first audio data includes a first OAE;
• and
• send the second audio data to permit the device to determine whether the second audio data includes a second OAE.

A method, comprising:

• receiving, by a device, a request to initiate an audio test;
• generating, by the device and based on the request, one or more instructions to control a bone transducer device and a microphone device;
• sending, by the device, the one or more instructions to a control device;
• receiving, by the device and after sending the one or more instructions, audio data from the control device;
• processing, by the device, the audio data using a signal-to-noise boosting technique;
• processing, by the device, the audio data to determine whether the audio data includes an otoacoustic emission (OAE);
• and
• causing, by the device, at least one action to be performed based on determining whether the OAE is included in the audio data.
