Abstract
The present invention relates to a hearing aid system which comprises a microphone earpiece on a first ear of a hearing impaired individual for receiving audio input signals, a portable signal process unit for processing the signals for clarity and fidelity of the sound, and a receiver earpiece on a second hearing impaired ear for delivering the audio output signals to compensate for the individual's hearing impairment. The design of the hearing aid system eliminates both mechanical and acoustic feedbacks, and thus significantly simplifies the hearing aid fitting process.
Claims18
A hearing aid system free of mechanic or acoustic feedback for a hearing impaired individual with a predetermined hearing profile, comprising
- a microphone earpiece attached to the first ear of the hearing impaired individual for receiving audio signals to generate transmittable signals;
- a portable signal process unit for receiving and processing the transmittable signals to generate processed signals according to the predetermined hearing profile;
- and
- a receiver earpiece attached to the second hearing impaired ear of the individual for receiving the processed signals from the portable signal process unit and generating amplified audio signals to compensate the hearing impairment of the individual.
