Voice control system for an implant

Abstract

A system for the control of a medical implant in a mammal body is provided. The system comprises a first and a second part being adapted for communication with each other, in which system: the first part is adapted for implantation in the mammal body for the control of and communication with the medical implant, and the second part is adapted to be worn on the outside of the mammal body and adapted to receive control commands from a user and to transmit these commands to the first part. The second part is adapted to receive and recognize the control commands from a user as voice commands and is adapted to transform recognized voice commands into signals which are transmitted to the first part, wherein said second part comprise a learning device adapted to successively learn the voice commands and learn to combine with the right output command, and wherein said learning device is adapted to recognize approximate voice commands into a fixed defined output command, the first part is adapted to convey such signals to the implant, the voice commands comprise a complex of different frequencies translated into one fixed defined output command, and wherein the second part comprises a wireless remote control for transmitting the signals to the first part wirelessly.
