The invention relates to a hearing aid system for processing an input sound and to provide an output stimulus according to a user's particular needs, the hearing aid system comprising
€¢ a hearing instrument adapted for being worn by a user at or in an ear;
€¢ an estimation unit for providing an estimate of present cognitive load of the user;
€¢ a signal processing unit for processing an input signal originating from the input sound according to the user's particular needs;
€¢ the system being adapted to influence said processing in dependence of the estimate the present cognitive load of the user, wherein said estimate of the present cognitive load of the user is determined or influenced by at least one direct measure of cognitive load for the user in question;
€¢ an electric terminal or sensor contributing to the direct measure of present cognitive load but NOT located in the hearing instrument, wherein such additional sensors or electric terminals are adapted to be connected to the hearing instrument by a wired or wireless connection. |
