Abstract

A device, system, and a method for adjusting audio parameters for a user are disclosed. The method comprises performing a hearing test of the user. The hearing test comprises playing an audio and capturing an auditory response of the user towards the audio. A hearing profile of the user is generated based on one or more results of the hearing test. A playing speed of the audio is adjusted based on the hearing profile, thereby adjusting the audio parameters for the user.

Claims (26)

1. A method for adjusting audio parameters for a user, the method comprising:

performing, by a processor, a hearing test of the user, wherein the hearing test comprises playing an audio and capturing an auditory response of the user towards the audio;

generating, by the processor, a hearing profile of the user, based on one or more results of the hearing test; and

adjusting, by the processor, a playing speed of the audio based on the hearing profile, thereby adjusting the audio parameters for the user.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user suffers from impaired hearing.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more results of the hearing test corresponds to a hearing ability of the user.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the hearing profile comprises a spectrum of the audio divided into a plurality of audio frequency bands and each frequency band being associated with user defined playback amplitudes of the audio.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising adjusting at least one of amplitude of the audio, frequency of the audio, and volume of the audio, based on the hearing profile.

6. A system for adjusting audio parameters for a user, the system comprising:

a processor and a memory, wherein the processor is configured to:

perform a hearing test of the user, wherein the hearing test comprises playing an audio and capturing an auditory response of the user towards the audio;

generate a hearing profile of the user, based on one or more results of the hearing test; and

adjust a playing speed of the audio based on the hearing profile, thereby adjusting the audio parameters for the user.

7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the user suffers from impaired hearing.

8. The system of claim 6 , wherein the one or more results of the hearing test corresponds to a hearing ability of the user.

9. The system of claim 6 , wherein the hearing profile comprises a spectrum of the audio divided into a plurality of audio frequency bands and each frequency band being associated with user defined playback amplitudes of the audio.

10. The system of claim 6 , wherein the processor is configured to adjust at least one of amplitude of the audio, frequency of the audio, and volume of the audio, based on the hearing profile.

11. A device for adjusting audio parameters for a user, the device comprising:

a processor and a memory, wherein the processor is configured to:

perform a hearing test of the user, wherein the hearing test comprises playing an audio and capturing an auditory response of the user towards the audio;

generate a hearing profile of the user, based on one or more results of the hearing test; and

adjust a playing speed of the audio based on the hearing profile, thereby adjusting the audio parameters for the user.

12. The device of claim 11 , wherein the user suffers from impaired hearing.

13. The device of claim 11 , wherein the one or more results of the hearing test corresponds to a hearing ability of the user.

14. The device of claim 11 , wherein the hearing profile comprises a spectrum of the audio divided into a plurality of audio frequency bands and each frequency band being associated with user defined playback amplitudes of the audio.

15. The device of claim 11 , wherein the processor is configured to adjust at least one of amplitude of the audio, frequency of the audio, and volume of the audio, based on the hearing profile.
