Abstract
An Internet-connected system and method for adapting a hearing configuration in a smart environment includes a hearing system including a hearing device. The hearing system connects to the Internet and transmits or receives an identification parameter corresponding to the hearing system. The hearing system receives a hearing program parameter over the Internet for configuring the hearing device when the hearing system is within a smart environment defined by a smart space system. The hearing program parameter computed is based on an environmental parameter measured within the smart environment by a sensor system of the smart space system. The hearing program parameter is sent to the hearing system over the Internet in response to a discovery system of the smart space system detecting the presence of the hearing system in the smart environment in response to receiving the identification parameter. The hearing device is programmed based on the hearing program parameter.
