Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Hörgerätesystem mit einem ersten Hörgerät, das eine erste Datenerfassungseinrichtung besitzt, um interne Signalverarbeitungsdaten und/oder externe Daten zu erfassen, und einem zweiten Hörgerät, das eine zweite Datenaufzeichnungseinrichtung besitzt, um ebenfalls interne Signalverarbeitungsdaten und/oder externe Daten aufzuzeichnen. Darüber hinaus betrifft die vorliegende Erfindung ein entsprechendes Verfahren zum Aufzeichnen bzw. Erfassen von Daten in einem Hörgerätesystem. Mit dem Begriff "DataLogging" wird im vorliegenden Dokument das Erfassen bzw. Aufzeichnen von Daten während des Betriebs eines Geräts bezeichnet. Auch bei Hörgeräten ist ein derartiges DataLogging von Interesse, um dynamisch oder nachträglich Anpassungen durchführen zu können.The present invention relates to a hearing aid system having a first hearing device having a first data acquisition device to detect internal signal processing data and / or external data, and a second hearing device having a second data recording device to record also internal signal processing data and / or external data. Moreover, the present invention relates to a corresponding method for recording or recording data in a hearing aid system. The term "data logging" in this document refers to the recording or recording of data during the operation of a device. Such a data logging is also of interest for hearing aids in order to be able to carry out dynamic or subsequent adjustments.

In der Patentschrift US 4,972,487 ist eine Hörprothese mit Data-Logging-Möglichkeit beschrieben. Damit können die vom Benutzer durchgeführten Einstellungen aufgezeichnet werden. Die aufgezeichneten Daten werden periodisch ausgelesen und zur Überprüfung des Geräts sowie zur verbesserten Anfangseinstellung für andere Patienten genutzt. Die Prothese kann eine Fernsteuereinheit aufweisen, und ein Data-Log-Speicher kann in der Fernsteuereinheit zusammen mit einem Speicher für Steuerprogramme zur Verfügung gestellt werden. Die aufgezeichneten Daten beziehen sich jedoch lediglich auf diejenigen Informationen, die im Hörgerät zur Verfügung stehen.In the patent US 4,972,487 is a hearing prosthesis with data logging capability described. This can be used to record the settings made by the user. The recorded data is periodically read out and used to check the device and improve initial settings for other patients. The prosthesis may include a remote control unit, and a data log memory may be provided in the remote control unit along with memory for control programs. However, the recorded data relates only to the information available in the hearing aid.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht darin, ein Hörgerätesystem mit zwei Hörgeräten besser datentechnisch auswerten zu können.The object of the present invention is to be able to evaluate a hearing aid system with two hearing aids better data technology.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe gelöst durch ein Hörgerätesystem mit einem ersten Hörgerät, das eine erste Datenerfassungseinrichtung besitzt, um interne Signalverarbeitungsdaten und/oder externe Daten zu erfassen,
einem zweiten Hörgerät, das eine zweite Datenerfassungseinrichtung besitzt, um interne Signalverarbeitungsdaten und/oder externe Daten zu erfassen, wobei die beiden Datenerfassungseinrichtungen zum Aufbau einer drahtlosen Kommunikationsverbindung ausgelegt sind, so dass eine synchronisierte Datenerfassung in beiden Hörgeräten ausführbar ist.According to the invention, this object is achieved by a hearing aid system having a first hearing device which has a first data acquisition device has to capture internal signal processing data and / or external data,
a second hearing device having a second data acquisition device to detect internal signal processing data and / or external data, wherein the two data acquisition devices are designed to establish a wireless communication link, so that a synchronized data acquisition is executable in both hearing aids.

Darüber hinaus ist erfindungsgemäß bereitgestellt ein Verfahren zum Erfassen von Daten in einem Hörgerätesystem mit einem ersten und einem zweiten Hörgerät durch Erfassen erster Daten in dem ersten Hörgerät und gleichzeitiges Erfassen zweiter Daten in dem zweiten Hörgerät, sowie drahtloses Übertragen zumindest eines Teils der ersten Daten an das zweite Hörgerät und/oder zumindest eines Teils der zweiten Daten an das erste Hörgerät und Speichern der aus der Übertragung empfangenen Daten im jeweiligen Hörgerät.In addition, the invention provides a method for acquiring data in a hearing device system with a first and a second hearing device by acquiring first data in the first hearing device and simultaneously acquiring second data in the second hearing device, as well as wirelessly transmitting at least a portion of the first data to the hearing aid second hearing aid and / or at least a portion of the second data to the first hearing aid and storing the data received from the transmission in the respective hearing aid.

Vorzugsweise besitzt das erste Hörgerät eine Speichereinrichtung zum Speichern und eine Auswerteeinrichtung zur Verwertung der erfassten Daten des zweiten Hörgeräts. Damit kann zum einen auf eine Speichereinrichtung in dem zweiten Hörgerät verzichtet werden. Zum anderen kann die gesamte Speicherkapazität in beiden Hörgeräten reduziert werden, da der gesamte Speicher beiden Hörgeräten gleichsam zur Verfügung steht.The first hearing device preferably has a memory device for storing and an evaluation device for utilizing the acquired data of the second hearing device. Thus, on the one hand, a memory device in the second hearing device can be dispensed with. On the other hand, the entire storage capacity in both hearing aids can be reduced because the entire memory is available to both hearing aids.

Entsprechend einer besonderen Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung werden die ersten Daten und die zweiten Daten in den Datenerfassungseinrichtungen inhaltlich verglichen, so dass redundante Daten von einer Speicherung ausgenommen werden können. Auch hierdurch lässt sich Speicherplatz des gesamten Hörgerätesystems einsparen.According to a particular embodiment of the present invention, the first data and the second data are compared in content in the data acquisition devices, so that redundant data can be excluded from storage. This also saves space for the entire hearing aid system.

Vorteilhafterweise wird eine bidirektionale Verbindung zwischen beiden Hörgeräten aufgebaut, so dass eine binaurale Information in beiden Hörgeräten speicherbar oder verwertbar ist. Dies bedeutet, dass jedes einzelne Hörgerät des Hörgerätesystems von der drahtlosen Kommunikation untereinander profitieren kann.Advantageously, a bidirectional connection is established between the two hearing aids so that binaural information can be stored or utilized in both hearing aids is. This means that each individual hearing aid of the hearing aid system can benefit from the wireless communication with each other.

Insbesondere ist es von Vorteil, wenn die Datenerfassung abhängig von Informationen, die im ersten und/oder zweiten Hörgerät zur Verfügung stehen, durchgeführt wird. Dies ist insbesondere deswegen günstig, da eine Datenerfassung bzw. Aufzeichnung dann unterbrochen werden kann, wenn eines der beiden Hörgeräte eine entsprechende Entscheidung liefert.In particular, it is advantageous if the data acquisition is carried out depending on information available in the first and / or second hearing device. This is particularly advantageous because data acquisition or recording can be interrupted if one of the two hearing aids delivers a corresponding decision.

Die vorliegende Erfindung wird nun anhand der beigefügten Zeichnungen näher erläutert, die eine Prinzipskizze eines erfindungsgemäßen Hörgerätesystems wiedergibt.The present invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which reproduces a schematic diagram of a hearing aid system according to the invention.

Die nachfolgend näher geschilderten Ausführungsbeispiele stellen bevorzugte Ausführungsformen der vorliegenden Erfindung dar.The embodiments described in more detail below represent preferred embodiments of the present invention.

Die der FIG dargestellte Skizze zeigt ein erfindungsgemäßes Hörgerätesystem mit einem ersten bzw. rechten Hörgerät 1 und einem zweiten bzw. linken Hörgerät 2. Das rechte Hörgerät 1 verfügt über einen internen Speicher 10 für das DataLogging. Ebenso verfügt das linke Hörgerät 2 über einen internen Speicher 20 für das DataLogging. Zwischen beiden Hörgeräten 1, 2 besteht eine binaurale Verbindung 3. Diese ist als drahtlose Kommunikationsverbindung realisiert. Somit ist ein vorzugsweise bidirektionaler Datenaustausch zwischen beiden Hörgeräten 1 und 2 möglich. Hierdurch lassen sich zwischen den Hörgeräten 1, 2 sowohl interne Steuerungsdaten als auch Daten, die das jeweilige Hörgerät von extern empfangen hat, austauschen.The sketch shown in FIG. 1 shows a hearing device system according to the invention with a first or right hearing device 1 and a second or left hearing device 2. The right hearing device 1 has an internal memory 10 for the data logging. Likewise, the left hearing aid 2 has an internal memory 20 for the data logging. Between two hearing aids 1, 2 there is a binaural connection 3. This is realized as a wireless communication link. Thus, a preferably bidirectional data exchange between the two hearing aids 1 and 2 is possible. As a result, both internal control data and data which the respective hearing device has received externally can be exchanged between the hearing aids 1, 2.

Da die beiden Hörgeräte synchron Daten aufzeichnen bzw. erfassen, ist zum Erzielen eines binauralen DataLogging kein Abgleich der Aufzeichnungszeiten mehr notwendig, um Daten gegebenenfalls nachträglich binaural zu verarbeiten. Dadurch dass keine oder weniger Zeitinformationen aufgezeichnet werden müssen, lässt sich wiederum Speicherplatz einsparen.Since the two hearing aids synchronously record or record data, to achieve a binaural data logging no synchronization of the recording times is no longer necessary to process data binaurally, if necessary. Thereby that no or less time information needs to be recorded, can in turn save space.

Das DataLogging wird in jedem Gerät 1, 2 oder nur in einem von beiden abhängig von binauralen Informationen durchgeführt. Dies bedeutet, dass die beim DataLogging aufgezeichneten Daten in einem oder in beiden Geräten sofort verwertet werden können. So besteht beispielsweise die Möglichkeit, während des Betriebs Änderungen der Programmierung zu veranlassen, die auf den Aufzeichnungen basieren. Auf diese Weise können beispielsweise dynamisch adaptierende Hörgeräte, realisiert werden.The data logging is performed in each device 1, 2 or only in either of them depending on binaural information. This means that the data recorded during DataLogging can be used immediately in one or both devices. For example, it is possible to initiate programming changes based on the recordings during operation. In this way, for example, dynamically adapting hearing aids can be realized.

In einem konkreten Beispiel können binaurale Eingangspegel für die Entscheidung verwendet werden, ob eine binaurale Änderung der Hörgeräteeinstellung registriert werden soll oder nicht. Ein weiteres Beispiel für die Nutzung binauraler Informationen besteht darin, dass Daten in beiden Hörgeräten dann nicht aufgezeichnet werden, wenn der Hörgeräteträger telefoniert und eines der beiden Hörgeräte sich im Telefonmodus befindet. Die Aufzeichnung könnte grundsätzlich dann unterbunden werden, wenn sich beide Hörgeräte in unterschiedlichen Modi befinden, da sie jeweils unterschiedliche Hörsituationen registrieren. Der Grund für einen Verzicht auf das DataLogging liegt darin, dass ein Vergleich oder eine Auswertung der Daten von beiden Hörgeräten aufgrund der unterschiedlichen Hörsituationen wenig sinnvoll ist.In a concrete example, binaural input levels can be used to decide whether or not to register a binaural change in the hearing aid setting. Another example of the use of binaural information is that data in both hearing aids are not recorded when the hearing aid wearer is on the phone and one of the two hearing aids is in telephone mode. The recording could basically be stopped when both hearing aids are in different modes, since they each register different listening situations. The reason for not using data logging is that it makes little sense to compare or analyze the data from both hearing aids due to the different listening situations.

Weiterhin lässt sich das DataLogging des gesamten Hörgerätesystems auf beide Geräte verteilen, wobei gegebenenfalls Informationen von dem linken Hörgerät 2 auf das rechte Hörgerät 1 oder umgekehrt übertragen werden müssen. Durch eine Speicherung der Daten entweder auf dem linken oder rechten Hörgerät lässt sich Speicherplatz einsparen, da die gleichen Daten nicht doppelt aufgezeichnet werden müssen. Dabei kann die Aufzeichnung beispielsweise nach dem Inhalt der Daten unterschiedlich durchgeführt werden. Beispielsweise können so Daten eines Typs im rechten Hörgerät 1 und Daten eines anderen Typs im linken Hörgerät 2 abgespeichert werden.Furthermore, the data logging of the entire hearing device system can be distributed to both devices, with information possibly having to be transmitted from the left hearing device 2 to the right hearing device 1 or vice versa. Storing the data on either the left or right hearing aid saves space since the same data does not need to be duplicated. The recording can be carried out differently, for example according to the content of the data. For example, this can be data one type in the right hearing aid 1 and data of another type in the left hearing aid 2 are stored.

Das binaurale, wireles DataLogging hat insbesondere dann Vorteile, wenn die Informationen beider Geräte bereits während des Betriebs ausgenutzt werden sollen. Dies ist beispielsweise dann der Fall, wenn für die Steuerung der Hörgeräte Differenzen oder Verhältnisse von aufgezeichneten Daten der beiden Hörgeräte für die Steuerung ausgenutzt werden sollen.The binaural, wireles DataLogging has advantages in particular if the information of both devices should already be used during operation. This is the case, for example, if differences or ratios of recorded data of the two hearing aids are to be utilized for the control of the hearing aids.

Durch das binaurale DataLogging ist es auch für eine nachträgliche binaurale Auswertung nicht mehr notwendig, die Aufzeichnungen von beiden Hörgeräten zu synchronisieren. Vielmehr liegen die aufgezeichneten binauralen Informationen sofort synchronisiert zur Verfügung und können ohne Zeitverzögerung verwertet werden. Wie oben bereits angedeutet wurde, können so auf der Basis der binauralen Informationen sofort während des Betriebes der Hörgeräte Änderungen der Programmierung der Geräte veranlasst werden.Due to the binaural data logging, it is no longer necessary to synchronize the recordings of both hearing aids for a subsequent binaural evaluation. Rather, the recorded binaural information is immediately available synchronized and can be used without delay. As has already been indicated above, changes in the programming of the devices can be promptly initiated on the basis of the binaural information during the operation of the hearing aids.
