Auditory health monitoring system with auricular device and physiological sensor

A method for monitoring auditory health of a user comprising:

• detecting one or more otoacoustic emissions with a microphone of an auricular device worn by the user, the one or more otoacoustic emissions originating from an inner ear of the user;
• generating OAE audio data with the microphone responsive to detecting the one or more otoacoustic emissions;
• and
• under control of one or more hardware processors:
• accessing the OAE audio data originating from the microphone;
• accessing physiological data of the user originating from a physiological sensor coupled to the user;
• detecting a feature of the physiological data in a time-domain based on a value of the physiological data exceeding a threshold, the feature of the physiological data corresponding to a physiological event generating noise during the one or more otoacoustic emissions, the noise having a noise frequency within a threshold of an OAE frequency of the one or more otoacoustic emissions;
• adjusting a portion of the OAE audio data responsive to detecting the feature of the physiological data to reduce interference of the noise from the physiological event on the OAE audio data, the portion of the OAE audio data corresponding to the feature of the physiological data in the time-domain;
• and
• determining one or more physiological characteristics of the user based on the OAE audio data.

Non-transitory computer-readable media including computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a computing system, cause the computing system to perform operations comprising:

• accessing OAE audio data generated by a microphone of an auricular device responsive to detecting one or more otoacoustic emissions emanating from an inner ear of a user;
• accessing physiological data of the user originating from a physiological sensor coupled to the user;
• detecting a feature of the physiological data in a time-domain based on a value of the physiological data exceeding a threshold, the feature of the physiological data corresponding to a physiological event generating noise during the one or more otoacoustic emissions, the noise having a noise frequency within a threshold of an OAE frequency of the one or more otoacoustic emissions;
• adjusting a portion of the OAE audio data responsive to detecting the feature of the physiological data to reduce interference of the noise from the physiological event on the OAE audio data, the portion of the OAE audio data corresponding to the feature of the physiological data in the time-domain;
• and
• determining one or more physiological characteristics of the user based on the OAE audio data.
