Embodiment Construction

[0062] 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.

[0063] The hearing device may comprise a hearing device adapted to improve at least one of the user's ears by receiving an acoustic signal from the user's surroundings, generating a corr...

Abstract

The application discloses a hearing assistance system, a system signal processing unit and a method for generating an enhanced electric audio signal, wherein the hearing assistance system comprises atleast two binaural hearing systems and a system signal processing unit in communication with at least one binaural hearing system. The system signal processing unit is configured to receive from saidfirst at least one binaural hearing system: a first system electric audio signal and first system spatial information related to said first system electric audio signal, said first system spatial information comprising at least one of a first system angle of incidence of incoming sound and a first system time delay between capturing sound by the two spaced apart hearing devices of said first hearing aid system, and to receive a second system electric audio signal and a second system spatial information related to said second system electric audio signal originating from said second binaural hearing system, said second system spatial information comprising at least one of a second system angle of incidence of incoming sound and a second system time delay between capturing sound by the twospaced apart hearing devices of said second hearing aid system. The system signal processing unit is further configured to process said first and second system electric audio signals based on said first and second system spatial information and to generate an enhanced electric audio signal.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a hearing aid system comprising at least two binaural hearing systems, each binaural hearing system comprising two hearing devices such as hearing aids. The invention also relates to a system signal processing unit for the aforementioned hearing aid system and a method for generating an enhanced electrical audio signal. Background technique [0002] Listening is a decisive aspect of communication. It is important to develop meaningful relationships and a life of complete enjoyment. Better hearing allows people to connect with those around them and participate in community life in any situation. Binaural hearing devices help users perceive and understand acoustic messages. A binaural hearing system typically includes two hearing devices, one for each ear of the user. Thus, the binaural hearing system is able to convey spatial information to the hearing aid user, in particular information about the angle of incidence of sound...
