Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a device for stimulating hair cells by using acoustic signals. The method comprises the following steps: judging a frequency band corresponding to a region of damaged hair cells according to a preset algorithm; determining the frequency band corresponding to the region of the damaged hair cells as a destination frequency band; and outputting the acoustic signals with given strength to the destination frequency band so as to stimulate the region of the damaged hair cells. Therefore, hearing loss diseases can be improved by using the acoustic signals.

Description

technical field [0001] Exemplary embodiments of the present invention relate to a method and apparatus for stimulating hair cells using acoustic signals. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for accurately diagnosing a user's hearing and improving hearing through the diagnosis result. Background technique [0002] Each organ used to transmit sound to the brain is known as an auditory organ. [0003] The auditory organs are divided into outer ear, middle ear and inner ear. Sound input from the outside through the outer ear is vibrated by the eardrum, and then the vibrating sound is transmitted to the cochlea of ​​the inner ear through the middle ear. [0004] Auditory hair cells line the basement membrane of the cochlea. Here, the number of hair cells arrayed on the basement membrane was approximately equal to 12,000. [0005] The basement membrane has a length of approximately 2.5 cm to 3 cm. Hair cells at the beginning of the basem...
