Focused Hearing

Focused Hearing
Mar-11-20
A new type of hearing aid claims to be able to filter out distracting background noise and focus the wearer's hearing similar to how you can focus on hearing just one person at a noisy cocktail party.

The wearable device incorporates EEG technology which analyzes the electrical activity of the user's brain to determine the direction in which they are focusing their hearing. An integrated directional microphone then responds by focusing itself in the same direction, while transcranial electrostimulation stimulates the auditory cortex of the brain to improve the intelligibility of the speaker's voice.
