Definitions

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the recorded data relates only to the information available in the hearing aid.
  • EP 1 445 982 A1 describes a device and a method for the communication of hearing aids. Two hearing aids are wirelessly connected via a communication system. Setting values for binaural calibration are transmitted via this connection. Optionally, the transmission of a synchronization command for automatic synchronization of the signal processing in both hearing aids.
  • EP 1 414 271 A2 a method for recording information in a hearing aid. Again, a wireless transmission link between two hearing aids of a binaural system is described.
  • a hearing device has a memory unit for storing a plurality of parameters, such as operating data or current settings, etc.
  • the object of the present invention is to be able to evaluate a hearing aid system with two hearing aids better data technology.
  • this object is achieved by a hearing aid system according to claim 1.
  • the invention provides a method for acquiring data in a hearing aid system according to claim 6.
  • 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.
  • a memory device in the second hearing device can be dispensed with.
  • the entire storage capacity in both hearing aids can be reduced because the entire memory is available to both hearing aids.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the left hearing aid 2 has an internal memory 20 for the data logging.
  • a binaural connection 3 This is realized as a wireless communication link.
  • a preferably bidirectional data exchange between the two hearing aids 1 and 2 is possible.
  • both internal control data and data which the respective hearing device has received externally can be exchanged between the hearing aids 1, 2.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
