Portable sound-sensing device

The invention relates to a portable sound-sensing reminding device, in particular to a hearing-assist auxiliary warning device that can be worn out.

Hearing impairment occurs in addition to hereditary, severe impact, and auditory organ lesions. It may also be due to the age becoming longer and the hearing is gradually degraded. When people with hearing impairments are speaking, the pronunciation of the voice is less correct and the tone of speech is not high. Change, listen to other people's face, mouth shape or expression, not only easy to produce frustration and powerlessness, resulting in many inconveniences, and in many cases even affect life safety.

In order to improve the inconvenience caused by hearing impairment, most patients must wear hearing aids for a long time, but traditional hearing aids will tighten the ear canal, often rubbing the skin, causing discomfort, and the ear canal is easy to bring mold under long time wearing. There are many problems such as pus, itching and excessive secretions. There are no other techniques on the market that can help the hearing impaired to identify the dangers of the external environment by reminding them of the multi-pronged technique of color, taste and vibration. Note that to reduce the occurrence of danger, relatives and friends of the hearing impaired are also worried about the dangerous situation outside, but the wireless cable can be mastered.
