Hearing auxiliary device and hearing auxiliary processing method
Abstract
Disclosed is a hearing auxiliary device for helping a person with hearing impairment to obtain hearing information. The hearing auxiliary device includes a bone conduct transceiver, a receiver and a driver. The bone conduct transceiver converts a sound raw data to a bone conduct signal. The receiver is installed to an inner ear portion of the person with hearing impairment, and the receiver receives the bone conduct signal and converts the bone conduct signal to a sound restoration signal. The driver sends out a physical signal according to the sound restoration signal, in order to let the person with hearing impairment to obtain a hearing signal.
Claims

9 . The hearing auxiliary device according to claim 1 , wherein the bone conduct transceiver has a first transceiving component and a second transceiving component, the first transceiving component and the second transceiving component respectively corresponding to two ears of the person with hearing impairment, and the first transceiving component and the second transceiving component employ different signal aspects, to avoid that the first transceiving component and the second transceiving component interfere with each other in signal transmission.
10 . The hearing auxiliary device according to claim 1 , wherein the bone conduct transceiver is attached to scalp of the person with hearing impairment via magnetic force.
11 . A hearing auxiliary processing method for helping a person with hearing impairment to obtain hearing information, comprising:
converting a sound raw data to a bone conduct signal via a bone conduct transceiver; receiving the bone conduct signal through a receiver installed to an inner ear portion of the person with hearing impairment, and converting the bone conduct signal to a sound restoration signal; and according to the sound restoration signal, the driver sending out a physical signal in order to let the person with hearing impairment to obtain a hearing signal.
12 . The hearing auxiliary processing method according to claim 11 , wherein the receiver is installed to a through hole on the eardrum of the person with hearing impairment.
13 . The hearing auxiliary processing method according to claim 11 , wherein the driver is installed to a cochlea of the person with hearing impairment.
14 . The hearing auxiliary processing method according to claim 11 , further comprising performing compression and error-correcting code on the bone conduct signal.
15 . The hearing auxiliary processing method according to claim 11 , further comprising optimizing procession for cranial electrical characteristics of the person with hearing impairment, for adjusting corresponding parameters.
16 . The hearing auxiliary processing method according to claim 11 , further comprising sending a testing signal to the receiver, receiving a testing result from the receiver, and adjusting the bone conduct signal according to the testing result.
17 . The hearing auxiliary processing method according to claim 11 , wherein the bone conduct transceiver is installed to a pair of glasses, to allow the person with hearing impairment to wear it in a manner of glasses.
18 . The hearing auxiliary processing method according to claim 11 , wherein the bone conduct transceiver has a first transceiving component and a second transceiving component, the first transceiving component and the second transceiving component respectively corresponding to two ears of the person with hearing impairment, and the bone conduct signal from the first transceiving component and the second transceiving component have a transmitting shift that is staggered apart, to avoid that the first transceiving component and the second transceiving component interfere with each other in signal transmission.
19 . The hearing auxiliary processing method according to claim 11 , wherein the bone conduct transceiver has a first transceiving component and a second transceiving component, the first transceiving component and the second transceiving component respectively corresponding to two ears of the person with hearing impairment, and the first transceiving component and the second transceiving component employ different signal aspects, to avoid that the first transceiving component and the second transceiving component interfere with each other in signal transmission.
20 . The hearing auxiliary processing method according to claim 11 , wherein the bone conduct transceiver is attached to scalp of the person with hearing impairment via magnetic force.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
