Patent application number | Description | Published |
20090041307 | Biometric information transfer system - A biometric information transfer system is provided, allowing the urgency, etc., of a biometric information measurement result contained in e-mail to be directly and instantaneously noticed. When the biometric information measurement result is converted into e-mail format, attention-drawing information is assigned to the e-mail in accordance with the biometric information measurement result. | 02-12-2009 |
20100092016 | BEHIND-THE-EAR HEARING AID WHOSE MICROPHONE IS SET IN AN ENTRANCE OF EAR CANAL - There is provided a behind-the-ear hearing aid that makes it easy for a hearing aid wearer to estimate a position of a sound source with respect to a front-back direction and that enables an increase in aesthetic property when the hearing aid is worn. A behind-the-ear hearing aid of the present invention is used while fitted to an ear of a human body, and includes at least a microphone | 04-15-2010 |
20100172506 | HEARING AIDS - The hearing aids comprise a microphone, a signal processor, and a receiver, and have a constitution in which the microphone generates an input signal from an input sound and generate an output signal and send it to the ear on the opposite side only when a specific condition is satisfied with respect to the input signal at the signal processor, and the receiver reproduces an output sound from the output signal. | 07-08-2010 |
20100234691 | MEDICAL QUESTION CONTENTS AUTOMATIC SELECTION SYSTEM - A medical question contents automatic selection system for automatically selecting medical questions allocated to a patient from the medical questionnaire made by a medical professional. The medical question contents automatic selection system compares the correct answer rate threshold of the medical questions preset by the medical professional with the correct answer rate of the questions to the patient so as to estimate the educational level of the patient about health, compares the vital sign measurement value threshold preset by the medical professional with the vital sign measurement value of the patient so as to estimate the condition level of the patient, and automatically selects medical questions allocated to the patient depending on the educational level and the condition level of the patient. The medical question contents automatic selection system can allocate medical questions to the patient depending on the educational level of the patient about health and disorder condition level of the patient without troubling the medical professional. | 09-16-2010 |
20110013792 | HEARING AID - A hearing aid comprises a noise suppressor that calculates noise suppression gain, an adjustment amount calculator that calculates an adjustment amount on the basis of a signal strength and a noise component strength, and a nonlinear compressor that calculates a reference gain on the basis of a signal strength and specific reference gain information and adjusts the reference gain on the basis of an adjustment amount, thereby calculating a nonlinear compression gain. | 01-20-2011 |
20110142273 | HEARING AID AND HEARING AID SYSTEM - A hearing aid that can reflect setting change of the hearing aid responsive to a sound environment by the user as intended, prevent the user from feeling inconvenience or displeasure caused by changing setting of the hearing aid, and enable the user to easily change the setting is provided. | 06-16-2011 |
20110249851 | BEHIND-THE-EAR HEARING AID WHOSE MICROPHONE IS SET IN AN ENTRANCE OF EAR CANAL - There is provided a behind-the-ear hearing aid that makes it easy for a hearing aid wearer to estimate a position of a sound source with respect to a front-back direction and that enables an increase in aesthetic property when the hearing aid is worn. A behind-the-ear hearing aid of the present invention is used while fitted to an ear of a human body, and includes at least a microphone | 10-13-2011 |
20120002829 | HEARING AID AND HEARING AID SYSTEM - A hearing aid includes: a first microphone configured to generate a first input signal from an input sound; a second microphone configured to generate a second input signal from the input sound; a signal processing unit configured to generate an output signal from the first input signal and the second input signal; and a receiver configured to play an output sound from the output signal. The signal processing unit determines time responses of the first input signal and the second input signal based on a contact sound generated when the hearing aid is contacted in a predetermined time period, and distinguishes a plurality of settings of the hearing aid and changes the setting based on the time responses. | 01-05-2012 |
20120281863 | HEARING AID - The hearing aid of the present invention comprises a gain calculation section for calculating the gain for amplifying or compressing an input sound signal, a sound pressure calculation section for calculating an output sound pressure level from the input signal and the gain, a clock section for calculating exposure time by integrating the time intervals at which the output sound pressure level is generated, and an exposure time determination section for detecting whether or not the exposure time for every output sound pressure level has exceeded an allowable time. | 11-08-2012 |
