Abstract
A fitting system for fully implantable middle ear implant uses acoustic waves to tune cochlear implant device according to patient comfort.
Claims11
A fitting system for fully implantable middle ear implant that uses acoustic waves to tune cochlear implant device, comprising:
- a transmitter module which is an application on an electronic or mobile device with an audio output, and
- a receiver module which is implanted as single channel or multi-channel according to transfer data and modulation and comprises a patient fitting device,
- wherein the fitting device comprises:
- an acoustic wave transmitter to generate a modulated signal for transferring data,
- an acoustic transducer to sense and convert the wave into electrical signals, wherein the transducer is an adaptable transducer with both flat and high-quality factor characteristics,
- a front-end electronic circuit configured to connect to the transducer to receive, amplify, filter, and demodulate the signals including sensing amplifiers filters,
- a processor circuit to modulate, demodulate, and control the signals, and
- a back-telemetry including a microphone and driving circuits configured to connect to the transducer for actuation and used for data transfer from the implant to a mobile device.
