Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1841281A1] This invention relates to a hearing aid system (100, 200, 300) for generating auditory spatial cues. The hearing aid system (100, 200, 300) comprises a first microphone unit (306) adapted to convert sound received at a first microphone (102) and received at a second microphone (104), a first delay unit (106) connected to the first microphone (102) delaying the signal from the first microphone (102), a first calculation unit (108) for summing the delayed signal of the first microphone (102) and signal of the second microphone (104), a processor unit (110) processing the summed signal, and a speaker converting the processed signal to a processed sound. The first and second microphones (102, 104) are separated by a predetermined first distance and the first delay unit (106) provides a predetermined first delay thereby generating a first auditory spatial cue representing a first spatial dimension in the summed signal.
