The invention relates to a hearing aid intended to be placed around an ear of a user, characterised in that it comprises at least one first bone conduction device and at least one second bone conduction device, the first device being configured to be positioned in contact with a first bone area of the user's head and to transmit first vibrations to said first bone area, and the second device being configured to be positioned in contact with a second area of the user's head and to transmit second vibrations to said second bone area, said second area being different from the first area, and said first bone area and said second bone area being located around the same ear of the user, said hearing aid further comprising at least one microphone for picking up an ambient sound signal which is then transformed to generate the first and second vibrations.
A hearing aid intended to be disposed around a user's ear, characterized in that it comprises at least a first bone conduction device and at least a second bone conduction device, the first device being configured to be positioned in contact with a first bone area of the user's head and to transmit first vibrations to said first bone area, and the second device being configured to be positioned in contact with a second area of the user's head and to transmit second vibrations to said second bone area, said second area being different from the first area, and said first bone area and said second bone area being located around the same ear of the user, said hearing aid further comprising at least one microphone making it possible to capture a surrounding sound signal which is then transformed to generate the first and second vibrations.
The hearing aid according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the microphone(s) make it possible to generate at least one electrical signal from said at least one sound signal and a processing module making it possible to process said at least one electrical signal.
The hearing aid according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the first and second devices are positioned on the user's skin and in that the hearing aid includes a system for holding the first and second devices on the skin.
The hearing aid according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that it further comprises a connecting device making it possible to connect the first and second devices to each other.
The hearing aid according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that it comprises at least one electrical signal receiver.
