    摘要: A hearing system comprising at least one hearing device, e.g. a hearing aid or a headset, adapted to be worn by a user is provided. The hearing system comprises at least two input transducers for providing corresponding at least two electric input signals representing sound in an environment around the user; a beamformer filter connected to said at least two input transducers and configured to provide a spatially filtered signal comprising a target signal from a target sound source in dependence of said at least two electric input signals and adaptively updated beamformer weights, the target sound source defining a target direction relative to the user; at least one earpiece, each earpiece comprising a housing being adapted to be located at and/or at least partially in an ear of the user; a brainwave detection system configured to provide a brainwave-based control signal. The brainwave detection system comprises a plurality of brainwave signal sensors located in and/or on said housing of said at least one earpiece, each sensor providing a brainwave signal representative of said sound in the environment around the user; and electric circuitry connected to said plurality of brainwave signal sensors and configured to receive and process said plurality of brainwave signals, wherein said electric circuitry is configured to identify a further direction to a further sound source, said further direction being different from said target direction, based on one or more of said plurality of brainwave signals, and to provide said brainwave-based control signal indicative thereof. The hearing system is further configured to determine said spatially filtered signal in dependence of said brainwave-based control signal.

    摘要: A method of of improving environmental awareness in a hearing aid is disclosed. The method includes determining, based on movement data, a movement parameter indicative of a movement of the hearing aid, determining whether the movement parameter meets a movement criterion, determining whether an output unit of the hearing aid is outputting an audio, and obtaining, by at least one microphone of the hearing aid, audio data indicative of an environment around the hearing aid. In accordance with a determination that the movement parameter meets the movement criterion and that the output unit is outputting audio, the method includes determining, based on the audio data, an object parameter indicative of a moving object in the environment, determining whether the object parameter meets a danger criterion, and in accordance with a determination that the object parameter meeting a danger criterion, modifying the audio being output by the output unit.

    摘要: A hearing aid is disclosed. The hearing aid includes a receiver configured to receive a sound in the environment, the receiver having a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and an outer surface connecting the first end with the second end. The hearing aid includes a suspension layer at least partially covering the outer surface of the receiver. The hearing aid includes an impact absorbing layer at least partially covering the outer surface of the receiver, wherein the impact absorbing layer is a different material than the suspension layer. The hearing aid includes a housing surrounding the receiver, the suspension layer, and the impact absorbing layer.
