Embodiment Construction

[0081] The detailed description set forth below in connection with the accompanying drawings serves as a description of a number of different configurations. The detailed description includes specific details to provide a thorough understanding of various concepts. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art that these concepts may be practiced without these specific details. Several aspects of the apparatus and methods are described in terms of a number of different blocks, functional units, modules, elements, circuits, steps, processes, algorithms, etc. (collectively referred to as "elements"). Depending on the particular application, design constraints, or other reasons, these elements may be implemented using electronic hardware, computer programs or any combination thereof.

[0082] Electronic hardware may include microprocessors, microcontrollers, digital signal processors (DSPs), field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), programmable logic devices (PLDs), gat...

Abstract

The application discloses a binaural hearing system and a hearing device comprising a beam forming unit, wherein the binaural hearing system comprises first and second hearing devices, each hearing device comprising: first and second input units for providing representations from First and second electrical input signals of first and second sound signals of a binaural hearing system environment; a beamforming unit for generating a beamforming signal from the first and second electrical input signals; for controlling the beamforming unit A control unit, wherein, in a specific dual DIR operating mode targeting a listening situation comprising a first and a second target sound source, the control unit of the first hearing device is configured to focus the beamforming unit of the first hearing device on the second a target sound source, and the control unit of the second hearing device is configured to focus the beamforming unit of the second hearing device on the second target sound source.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to hearing devices, in particular to a binaural hearing system comprising a first and a second hearing device. The invention relates in particular to a binaural hearing system comprising first and second hearing devices adapted to fit at or in the left and right ears of a user, each hearing device The input signal is generated by the beamforming unit of the beamforming signal. The present application also relates to a method of operating a binaural hearing system. [0002] Embodiments of the present invention may be used, for example, in applications such as binaural hearing aid systems, headsets or ear protection systems. Background technique [0003] When two people are speaking, a hearing-impaired third person requires a certain amount of "processing power" to distinguish the voices of the two people and to separate the two sound sources if they overlap in time. This is especially taxing if it is not possible for t...
