Embodiment Construction

[0086] figure 1 The binaural hearing system 10 is shown worn at the head 12 of a user 14 . The binaural hearing system 10 comprises a first hearing instrument 16 and a second hearing instrument 18 which are respectively worn at the left ear 20 and the right ear 22 of the head 12 of the user 14 .

[0087] exist figure 1 , an exemplary sound situation is shown in which a target sound source 24 provides sound 26, such as a person speaking, while noise sources 28a, 28b, 28c, 28d and 28e provide noise. The binaural hearing system 10 is configured to divide the environment around the user 14 into two subspaces around the listening direction 32 and the noise direction 30 . The subspace around noise direction 30 includes noise sources 28a-28e. The subspace around listening direction 32 includes target sound sources 24 that provide sounds 26 that user 14 wants to hear. Sound received by the hearing instruments 16 and 18 of the binaural hearing system 10 from the subspace around the...

Abstract

The present disclosure regards a binaural hearing system configured to receive sound signals from the environment having two hearing instruments to be worn on respective sides of the head of a user and to generate a binaural signal using the received sound signals of both hearing instruments.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a binaural hearing system comprising two hearing instruments, each configured to be worn on either side of a user's head. The invention also relates to a method of generating binaural electrical signals. Background technique [0002] Hearing instruments are used to improve or enable auditory perception, ie hearing. Hearing aids are a group of hearing instruments that are in common use today and help the hearing impaired to improve their ability to hear. A hearing aid typically includes a microphone, an output transducer, circuitry, and a power source such as a battery. The output transducer may be, for example, a speaker (also known as a receiver), a vibrator, an electrode array configured to be implanted at the cochlea, or any other instrument capable of generating sound signals from electrical signals. The microphone receives sound signals from the environment and generates electrical signals from the received soun...
