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 (14)

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; and

adjusting, by the processor, the frequency of the audio based on the hearing profile, thereby adjusting the playback audio parameters for the user.

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

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

4. The system 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 parameters 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; and

adjusting, by the processor, at least two audio parameters selected from the set of parameters consisting of: amplitudes of the audio, speed of the audio and frequency of the audio, based on the hearing profile, thereby adjusting the playback audio parameters 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 playback audio parameters of the audio.
