A hearing loss compensation apparatus and method compensate for distortion caused by a change in a sound transmission path using hearing characteristics of a user. The hearing loss compensation apparatus may include a sound direction detection device configured to detect a sound generation direction, in which a sound generates, using one or more microphones, and a sound compensation device configured to compensate the sound using hearing characteristics of a user corresponding to the sound generation direction. Additionally, a hearing characteristics measurement apparatus and method provide a way to obtain such hearing characteristics information.

An apparatus and method are provided to determine a parameter using an auditory model of a hearing loss patient. The parameter determination apparatus determines a similarity between a neurogram of a normal subject and a neurogram of a hearing loss patient, and determines an optimal frequency band for the hearing loss patient based on the similarity.

Apparatus and method for determining parameter using auditory model of hearing loss patient

A hearing device and a method of the hearing aid are provided considering an external environment surrounding a user. The hearing device includes an external environment determination unit, an inquiry unit, and a parameter set unit. The external environment determination unit is configured to determine an external environment surrounding a user wearing the hearing device. The inquiry unit is configured to select a question corresponding to the external environment and inquire the question to the user. The parameter set unit is configured to set a parameter of the hearing device based on a response to the question and hearing loss information of the user.

Hearing device considering external environment of user and control method of hearing device

A hearing apparatus includes a coil and a coil operation mode selector configured to select either a first coil operation mode for communicating with a wireless communication terminal, or a second coil operation mode for wirelessly charging a battery of the hearing apparatus.

Hearing apparatus including coil operable in different operation modes

An apparatus and a method for inputting audiogram using a touch input are provided. An audiogram input apparatus includes: an input receiver configured to receive a touch input from a user; a data processor configured to generate an audiogram corresponding to the touch input; and a display unit configured to display the generated audiogram.

Apparatus for inputting audiogram using touch input

A wireless communication method of a hearing aid includes extracting an audio signal through a first hearing aid, determining a beam forming vector as a beam toward a rear of a user wearing the first hearing aid and a second hearing aid. The method may also include pre-coding of the audio signal using the beam forming vector, and transmitting the pre-coded audio signal to the second hearing aid through a first antenna. The first hearing aid may include the first antenna and the second hearing aid includes a second antenna.

Wireless communication method and apparatus of hearing device

A method of determining an operation mode of a hearing device and the hearing device may include detecting an input signal of the hearing device, determining the operation mode of the hearing device by determining whether the input signal is a designated signal related to a programming mode of the hearing device, and controlling the hearing device according to the operation mode.

Method of determining operation mode of hearing device and hearing device

Disclosed are a terminal and a method of pairing a terminal with a hearing apparatus. The method of pairing a terminal involves verifying whether a hearing apparatus is in contact with a terminal, and pairing the terminal with the hearing apparatus in response to a determination that the hearing apparatus is in contact with the terminal.

Mobile terminal and method of pairing mobile terminal with hearing apparatus

A hearing apparatus and method for measuring a distance between an eardrum and the hearing apparatus are provided. The hearing apparatus may include a signal output unit configured to output a first measurement signal, a signal identification unit configured to receive a second measurement signal, and a distance determination unit configured to determine the distance between the user's eardrum and the hearing apparatus.

Hearing apparatus and method for measuring distance between eardrum and hearing apparatus

Provided is a switched-capacitor integrator, a method of operating the switched-capacitor integrator, and apparatuses including the switched-capacitor integrator. The switched-capacitor integrator including an amplifier including a first input terminal, a second input terminal, and an output terminal, a first capacitor disposed between the first input terminal and the output terminal, and a switched capacitor circuit configured to sample an input signal in response to control signals, and to integrate a difference between a feedback signal and the input signal while sampling the input signal.
