Improved Sound Localization for CI Users
For bilateral cochlear implant users, the localization of sound sources is a challenging everyday task. Researchers from the Hearing Research Laboratory (ARTORG Center and ENT Department, Inselspital) have recently shown in a clinical study, that an algorithm which imitates the function of the outer ear (pinna) improves the sound localization performance in bilateral cochlear implant users.
