    Abstract: An external microphone array is configured to be used with a hearing aid and comprises a number of microphones configured to detect one or more sound signals from a sound source and means for wirelessly sending the detected sound signal to at least one hearing aid. The external microphone array comprises means for automatically determining the direction of the sound source either by: a) receiving a wireless signal transmitted from a remote control; b) by receiving acoustic signals picked up by the hearing aid(s) and by further comparing the signals with signals received by the external microphone array. The external microphone array may e.g. take the form of a sphere, a hemi-sphere or a neckband.

    Abstract translation: 外部麦克风阵列被配置为与助听器一起使用并且包括被配置为从声源检测一个或多个声音信号的多个麦克风,以及用于将检测到的声音信号无线发送到至少一个助听器的装置。 外部麦克风阵列包括用于通过以下步骤自动确定声源的方向的装置:a)接收从遥控器发送的无线信号; b)通过接收由助听器拾取的声学信号,并且进一步将信号与由外部麦克风阵列接收的信号进行比较。 外部麦克风阵列可以例如 采取球体,半球或颈带的形式。
