SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENHANCING TARGETED AUDIBILITY

摘要

The invention includes method and apparatus to provide a feature-rich hearing assistance device, which utilizes software that runs in the standard operating environment of commercially available Mobile Platforms. The illustrated embodiment utilitizes wired earpieces and wireless earpieces. The Mobile Platform transmits to the wireless earpieces stereo or monaural audio using communication protocols such as the A2DP Bluetooth protocol for high quality audio stereo transmission, very low latency digital transmission, or low cost specialized RF or Bluetooth transmission. Utilized microphones may have specific features to ensure effective processing of ambient sound, especially speech.
