HEARING AID
A hearing aid includes at least two magnetic sensors, and the arrangements thereof are not parallel to each other so that the magnetic field can be detected more precisely to generate a clearer sound signal. Furthermore, the hearing aid can switch between two different receiving states according to different ways of generating sound signals, wherein the first receiving state generates a sound signal through the detection of the magnetic field and the second receiving state generates a sound signal through a microphone receiving sounds.
