Directional Hearing Aid Design
In this proposal we describe our intent to build a directional hearing aid under the guidance of Professor Erik Cheever and E. Carr Everbach. Currently, there is a need for reliable and effective hearing aid designs and we will attempt to implement one given our undergraduate background in engineering. This project will demonstrate our interdisciplinary education at Swarthmore College through t...
متن کاملInnovative mechanisms for directional hearing
Severe size constraints are imposed on the hearing organs of insects, yet they perform sophisticated tasks of auditory processing. Recent research has shown how flies acoustically locate targets in space, how mosquitoes afford highly sensitive ears, and how crickets avoid deafening themselves with their songs. These findings unveil the exquisite analytical capabilities of highly specialized mic...
متن کاملDirectional hearing in a silicon cricket
Phonotaxis is the ability to orient towards or away from sound sources. Crickets can locate conspecifics by phonotaxis to the calling (mating) song they produce, and can evade bats by negative phonotaxis from echolocation calls. The behaviour and underlying physiology have been studied in some depth, and the auditory system solves this complex problem in a unique manner. Experiments conducted o...
متن کاملDirectional hearing aids: then and now.
Directional microphone hearing aids can lead to improved speech recognition when speech and noise are coming from different directions. This technology provides limited benefits, however, and in specific instances use of a directional hearing aid mode can be detrimental. This article discusses the benefits and limitations of directional amplification, summarizes some current work in directional...
متن کاملLights can reverse illusory directional hearing.
Adding brief flashes of light to a train of auditory clicks [R. Hari, Illusory directional hearing in humans, Neurosci. Lett. 189 (1995) 29-30] can alter the sounds perceived location within the head. In an experimental procedure adopted from Hari [R. Hari, Illusory directional hearing in humans, Neurosci. Lett. 189 (1995) 29-30], 16 observers listened over headphones to 8 binaural clicks (i.e....
