- 助听器技术 助听器技术
- 生物医学工程 生物医学工程
背景情况:
- 非处方 (OTC) 助听器为轻度至中度听力损失的个人提供了可访问的解决方案.
- 自适应式助听器需要用户友好的界面和有效的起始参数.
- 初始响应设置和用户体验对自适配结果的影响对于OTC设备的成功至关重要.
研究的目的:

01:01Perception of Sound Waves
4.4K
The human ear is not equally sensitive to all frequencies in the audible range. It may perceive sound waves with the same pressure but different frequencies as having different loudness. Moreover, the perception of sound waves depends on the health of an individual's ears, which decays with age. The health of one's ears may also be affected by regular exposure to loud noises.
The pitch of a sound depends on the frequency and the pressure amplitude of the source. Two sounds of the same...

01:13The Cochlea
44.5K
The cochlea is a coiled structure in the inner ear that contains hair cells—the sensory receptors of the auditory system. Sound waves are transmitted to the cochlea by small bones attached to the eardrum called the ossicles, which vibrate the oval window that leads to the inner ear. This causes fluid in the chambers of the cochlea to move, vibrating the basilar membrane.
