==HEARING AID DEVICE WITH FUNCTIONS OF ANTI-NOISE AND 3D SOUND RECOGNITION - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240056745 titled 'HEARING AID DEVICE WITH FUNCTIONS OF ANTI-NOISE AND 3D SOUND RECOGNITION

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract of this patent application describes a hearing aid device that incorporates anti-noise and 3D sound recognition functions. The device includes multiple microphones, an A/D converter, a modular electronic device, a D/A converter, and a loudspeaker. The modular electronic device is responsible for generating second audio signals based on first audio signals and a head-related transfer function (HRTF) signal. These second audio signals are then summed up to a reference signal. The modular electronic device also applies an active noise cancellation (ANC) process to the reference signal, converts it to a second output signal, and generates an output signal based on the first output signal and the second output signal. The loudspeaker then broadcasts sound according to the output signal.

* The hearing aid device includes multiple microphones, an A/D converter, a modular electronic device, a D/A converter, and a loudspeaker.
* The modular electronic device generates second audio signals based on first audio signals and a head-related transfer function (HRTF) signal.
* The second audio signals are summed up to a reference signal.
* The modular electronic device applies an active noise cancellation (ANC) process to the reference signal.
* The reference signal is converted to a second output signal.
* An output signal is generated based on the first output signal and the second output signal.
* The loudspeaker broadcasts sound according to the output signal.

Potential applications of this technology:
* Hearing aid devices with improved sound quality and noise reduction capabilities.
* Assistive listening devices for individuals with hearing impairments.
* Virtual reality or augmented reality headsets with enhanced 3D sound effects.

Problems solved by this technology:
* Background noise interference in hearing aid devices is reduced through active noise cancellation.
* The device provides a more immersive and realistic sound experience by incorporating 3D sound recognition.

Benefits of this technology:
* Improved speech intelligibility and sound quality for individuals with hearing impairments.
* Enhanced listening experience in noisy environments.
* Increased user satisfaction and comfort with the hearing aid device.
* Immersive and realistic sound effects for virtual reality or augmented reality applications.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

a hearing aid device with functions of anti-noise and 3d sound recognition is disclosed. the hearing aid device comprises n microphones, at least one a/d converter, a modular electronic device, a d/a converter, and a loudspeaker. according to the present invention, the modular electronic device is configured for generating n second audio signals based on n first audio signals and a hrtf signal, and then summing up the n second audio signals to a reference signal. moreover, the modular electronic device is further configured for generating a first output signal after applying an anc process to the reference signal, converting the reference signal to a second output signal, and then generating an output signal based on the first output signal and the second output signal. consequently, the loudspeaker broadcasts a sound according to the output signal.
