Abstract (en)

[origin: US4773095A] A hearing aid which can be built into a frame, such as eyeglasses, to be worn by a hearing-impaired person has a first microphone arrangement having a directional reception pattern, and a second microphone arrangement for sound locating. The second microphone arrangement includes a first locating microphone disposed in the region of one ear of the hearing-impaired person, and a second locating microphone disposed in the region of the other ear. The signal from both locating microphones are mixed by a low-pass filter with the signal from the microphone arrangement having a directional reception pattern, and the output of the mixing operation is supplied in common to both ears of the hearing-impaired person.
