System and method for adjusting audio parameters for a user
View Patent ↗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.
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 with a frequency 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;
uploading the hearing profile of the user into a hearing aid, said hearing aid further comprising a microphone, a speaker, a memory, and a hearing aid processor;
receiving ambient audio from the hearing aid microphone;
digitizing the ambient audio; and,
adjusting, by the hearing aid processor, a frequency of the ambient audio based on the hearing profile, thereby adjusting audio parameters of the ambient audio 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. 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;
uploading the hearing profile of the user into a hearing aid, said hearing aid further comprising a microphone, a speaker, a memory, and a hearing aid processor;
receiving ambient audio from the hearing aid microphone;
digitizing the ambient audio; and,
adjusting, by the hearing aid processor at least one audio parameter of the ambient audio, the at least one audio parameter being selected from the set of audio parameters consisting of: a speed of the ambient audio and a frequency of the ambient audio based on the hearing profile, thereby adjusting audio parameters of the ambient audio for the user.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the user suffers from impaired hearing.
7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the one or more results of the hearing test corresponds to a hearing ability of the user.
8. The method of claim 5 , 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.
9. The method of claim 5 , wherein the user suffers from impaired hearing.
10. The method of claim 5 , wherein the one or more results of the hearing test corresponds to a hearing ability of the user.
11. The method of claim 5 , 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.
12. 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;
uploading the hearing profile of the user into a hearing aid, said hearing aid further comprising a microphone, a speaker, a memory, and a hearing aid processor;
receiving ambient audio from the hearing aid microphone;
digitizing the ambient audio; and,
adjusting, by the hearing aid processor at least two audio parameters of the ambient audio, the at least two audio parameters being selected from the set of audio parameters consisting of: a speed of the ambient audio, a frequency of the ambient audio based on the hearing profile, and an amplitude of the ambient audio, thereby adjusting audio parameters of the ambient audio for the user.
