1. A sound processor for use with a cochlear implant, the sound processor comprising:
a sound processor housing that is not configured to be carried on the user's ear; a microphone array, including first and second microphones carried by the sound processor housing, defining a microphone array axis; and sound processor circuitry, operably connected to the first and second microphones and located within the sound processor housing, configured to determine whether or not sounds received by the first and second microphones arrive from a direction at which the microphone array axis points, to attenuate sounds received by the first and second microphones that do not arrive from the direction at which the microphone array axis points, and to generate a pulse sequence for use by the cochlear implant. |
