Optimizing sound localization with hearing AIDS.
At a grant application interview the authors were greeted by the interview panel's spokesman who said: "I'm an eye doctor. Since reading your application, I've been asking my patients: 'Does it matter whether you can tell where sounds are coming from'? and they say it doesn't." This attitude may epitomize how many people regard sound localization. It is such a natural part of living that this a...
متن کاملEffect and Sound Localization with Dichotic-Listening Digital Hearing Aids
Sensorineural hearing loss is commonly accompanied by reduced frequency selectivity, which causes the larger adverse effect of masking. To cope with this issue, some studies have addressed the effects of dichotic listening to reduce the masking between contiguous frequency bands. This paper investigates sound image localization perceived in both dichotic and diotic listening conditions, as well...
متن کاملEvaluation of Speech Intelligibility and Sound Localization Abilities with Hearing Aids Using Binaural Wireless Technology
Wireless synchronization of the digital signal processing (DSP) features between two hearing aids in a bilateral hearing aid fitting is a fairly new technology. This technology is expected to preserve the differences in time and intensity between the two ears by co-ordinating the bilateral DSP features such as multichannel compression, noise reduction, and adaptive directionality. The purpose o...
متن کاملLocalization of virtual sound sources with bilateral hearing aids in realistic acoustical scenes.
Sound localization with hearing aids has traditionally been investigated in artificial laboratory settings. These settings are not representative of environments in which hearing aids are used. With individual Head-Related Transfer Functions (HRTFs) and room simulations, realistic environments can be reproduced and the performance of hearing aid algorithms can be evaluated. In this study, four ...
متن کاملSound Localization Under Perturbed Binaural Hearing
Van Wanrooij MM, Van Opstal AJ. Sound localization under perturbed binaural hearing. J Neurophysiol 97: 715–726, 2007. First published October 25, 2006; doi:10.1152/jn.00260.2006. This paper reports on the acute effects of a monaural plug on directional hearing in the horizontal (azimuth) and vertical (elevation) planes of human listeners. Sound localization behavior was tested with rapid heado...
