A system for generating processed audio signals may include an earphone comprising a microphone configured to capture sounds from an environment of the earphone, a first communication component, and a first processor; and an earphone case comprising an earphone compartment configured to receive the earphone, a second communication component, and a second processor. The first processor may be programmed to receive a captured audio signal representative of the sounds captured by the microphone; and transmit the captured audio signal via the first communication component. The second processor may be programmed to receive the captured audio signal via the second communication component; generate a processed audio signal based on analysis of the captured audio signal; and transmit the processed audio signal via the second communication component to the first communication component.

Earphone smartcase with audio processor

A hearing aid system for selectively conditioning audio signals associated with a recognized object may include at least one processor. The processor may be programmed to receive audio signals acquired by a wearable microphone; analyze the received audio signals to obtain an isolated audio stream associated with a sound-emanating object in the environment of the user; determine an audioprint from the isolated audio stream; and use the audioprint to retrieve from a database information relating to the particular sound-emanating object. Based on the retrieved information, the processor may cause selective conditioning of at least one audio signal received by the wearable microphone from a region associated with the at least one sound-emanating object; and cause transmission of the at least one conditioned audio signal to a hearing interface device configured to provide sounds to an ear of the user.

Selectively conditioning audio signals based on an audioprint of an object

A system may include a wearable camera configured to capture images and a microphone configured to capture sounds. The system may also include a processor programmed to receive audio signals from the microphone and detect, based on analysis of the audio signals, a first audio signal associated with a first time period. The first audio signal may be representative of a voice of a single individual. The processor may also be programmed to detect, based on analysis of the audio signals, a second audio signal associated with a second time period. The second time period may be different from the first time period, and the second audio signal may be representative of overlapping voices of two or more individuals. The processor may further be programmed to selectively condition the first and second audio signals, and cause transmission of the conditioned first audio signal to a hearing interface device.

Conditioning audio signals including overlapping voices

Systems and methods for amplifying and/or attenuating audio signals are disclosed. In one implementation, a system for selectively amplifying audio signals may include at least one microphone for capturing sounds from an environment of the user and a processor. The processor may be programmed to receive an audio signal representative of sounds captured by the at least one microphone; determine whether the audio signal comprises speech by a user of the system; subject to the audio signal comprising speech by the user, modify the audio signal by attenuating a first part of the audio signal comprising the speech by the user; subject to the audio signal comprising audio other than speech by the user, modify the audio signal by amplifying a second part of the audio signal comprising audio other than the speech by the user; and transmit the modified audio signal to a hearing interface device.

Systems and methods for selectively attenuating a voice

System and methods for processing audio signals are disclosed. In one implementation, a system may include at least one microphone configured to capture sounds from an environment of a user; and at least one processor. The processor may be programmed to receive at least one audio signal representative of at least part of the sounds captured by the microphone; identify at least one word in the at least one audio signal; and in response to identifying the at least one word, cause feedback to be provided the user.

Systems and methods for emphasizing a user's name

A system for selectively amplifying audio signals may include a wearable camera configured to capture a plurality of images from an environment of a user and a microphone configured to capture sounds from an environment of the user. The system may also include a processor programmed to: receive the plurality of images captured by the camera; identify a representation of at least one recognized individual in at least one of the plurality of images; receive audio signals representative of the sounds captured by the microphone; cause selective conditioning of at least one audio signal received by the microphone from a region associated with the at least one recognized individual; and cause transmission of the at least one conditioned audio signal to a hearing interface device configured to provide sound to an ear of the user.

Hearing aid with voice or image recognition

A system for selectively amplifying audio signals may include a microphone configured to capture sounds from an environment of a user. The system may also include a processor programmed to: receive audio signals representative of the sounds captured by the microphone; cause selective conditioning of at least one audio signal received by the microphone from a region associated with the recognized individual; and cause transmission of the at least one conditioned audio signal to a hearing interface device configured to provide sound to an ear of the user.

Hearing aid with voice recognition

A hearing aid and related systems and methods are disclosed. In one implementation, a system may comprise a microphone and a processor. The processor may be configured to receive an original audio signal representative of sounds captured by the microphone; determine that the original audio signal includes a voice of the user; process the original audio signal according to a first processing scheme to generate a first processed audio signal; transmit the first processed audio signal to a hearing interface device after a first time delay associated with the first processing scheme; determine that the original audio signal includes an additional sound; process the original audio signal according to a second processing scheme to generate a second processed audio signal; and transmit the second processed audio signal to the hearing interface device after a second time delay associated with the second processing scheme.

Systems and methods for transmitting audio signals with varying delays

A hearing aid system for individual identification of a hearing aid system may include a wearable camera, a microphone, and at least one processor. The processor may be programmed to receive a plurality of images captured by the wearable camera; receive audio signals representative of sounds captured by the microphone; and identify a first audio signal, from among the received audio signals, representative of a voice of a first individual. The processor may transcribe and store, in a memory, text corresponding to speech associated with the voice of the first individual and determine whether the first individual is a recognized individual. If the first individual is a recognized individual, the processor may associate an identifier of the first recognized individual with the stored text corresponding to the speech associated with the voice of the first individual.
