Unwelcomed workplace noise disrupts concentration, decreases productivity and increases stress amongst your associates according to a recent University of California study. And these are challenges that are being over-looked in even the most modern of working environments.
This guide illustrates the key acoustic challenges and the measures needed to minimise their effect on your smarter working environment.
Next Generation Lightning-Cable Headphones for Apple ProductsErik Bowitz
Don't believe the hype about Bluetooth headphones. Lightning cables transmit both data and power and thus provide a whole new world of "smart headphones" that is of higher quality than both wireless and the old 3.5mm cable types.
Silent sound technology SST has be introduced to put end to noise pollution and help the people that have lost their voice and cannot speak on mobile phone. This device is developed at Karlsruhe institute of technology and expected to be see in near feature. This device will notice the lip movement inform of electrical impulse and transfer it to sound speech that can be understood. It will be useful for people that want to make a silent call by just receiving the electrical impulse from lips movement and neglect all other surrounding noise and convert it to sound speech at the receiver ends. It can be used for languages like English, German and French but it cannot be used for language like Chinese because a different tone means different meaning. It will be useful for secrete calling because the caller don’t need to utter a word loudly just the lips movement. Silent sound technology (taking without talking) work base on two methods which are electromyography (EMG) and image processing.
As Digital Still Cameras (DSC) become smaller, cheaper and higher in resolution, photographs are increasingly prone to blurring from shaky hands. Optical image stabilization (OIS) is an effective solution that addresses the quality of images, and is an idea that has been around for at least 30 years. It has only recently made its way into the low-cost consumer camera market, and will soon be migrating to the higher end camera phones. This paper provides an overview of common design practices and considerations for optical image stabilization and how silicon-based MEMS dual-axis gyroscopes with their size, cost and performance advantages are enabling this vital function for image capturing devices

Expanding hearables and next generation hearing health: A conversation with S...Valencell, Inc
Consumers have come to expect more from their wearable devices and as the markets for hearables and hearing health devices continue to grow, biometrics have become essential. In this webinar, Sonion, the global leader in micro-acoustic technologies for hearing instruments, joins us to explore the benefits of biometric sensors in the ear.
Hamidreza Taghavi, Senior Product Manager at Sonion, discusses the ongoing convergence between the consumer wearables/hearables market and health and medical devices and where this technology is headed, particularly as hearing aids get smarter and hearables gain more capabilities.
Wearables, Hearables and Hearing HealthRuth Bridger
On December 7, 2016 the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) made an extremely important announcement for hearing impaired people. The FDA is working to establish a new category of Over The Counter (OTC) devices that are hearing aids. For the consumer electronics industry it may be the “starting shot” in a race to create low-cost, high-performance, multi-functional alternatives to traditional hearing aids, addressing the needs of the huge potential market of over 700 million hearing impaired users worldwide. Some of us predicted this starting shot as long as 6 years ago and began working in this direction. This video, created from a lecture presented on January 16, 2017 for Haifa Digital Health, includes a short history, as well as the latest developments in this field.
Alexander Goldin, Founder and CEO of Alango Technologies, Ltd., realized the potential of affordable consumer electronics devices as alternative to hearing aids. About two years ago his company started developing a licensable software package that allows the inclusion of hearing aid functionality into virtually any high-end Bluetooth headset. Today this reference design is sold as HearPhones™.
In 2015 Alango decided to go a step further and develop its own concept products, based on the HearPhones reference design. The first product to reach the market is called BeHear™. It is a stylish Bluetooth headset with truly personal hearing enhancement functionality. The second product is called Smart Assistive Listening Transceiver (SALT™) that, additionally, integrates assistive listening features. Prototypes and their respective availability dates and prices are seen in this video.
It is Goldin's belief that the future of affordable hearing enhancement will not stop at HearPhones types of devices. The next step will be another class of devices that will be a derivative of HearPhones. Based as they are on HearPhones they will, of course, include fully personalized sound with Bluetooth connectivity, hearing enhancement and assistive listening functionalities. Additionally, these always-on, wearable devices will also function as daily organizers, health monitors, intelligent fall detectors and navigators, etc. All these additional functionalities will be via a personalized virtual assistant communicating with the user via voice and listening for voice commands. Alango calls this new type of devices "Personal Hearing Assistants" or PHA.
The level of user-device voice interaction required by Personal Hearing Assistants demands a leap in automatic speech recognition technology. In turn, such a leap is impossible without a significant improvement in users' speech signal quality in noisy, reverberant, windy and other unfriendly to voice environments. We, at Alango Technologies, are working on these challenges will continue to provide updates about the latest developments in this area.

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

Absolutely wonderful and outstanding app! It has more settings than any other app
I tried + hearing test + it has NO DELAY that other apps does. I finally can hear teacher in class,
I can study now and I couldn't be happier! I recommending to people who left a bed reviews,
to go and buy real hearing aid for hundreds of dollars, and try it. I have it and it much worse
than this app because doesn't have all that features as amplifing some particular frequencies.
This app is free, and I don't know how you dare to complain. Best wishes to creator!
I'm a software developer and I know what it's worth to create an app. They don't.
Thank you so much!

COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS
10. REMOTE CONSULTANT IS READY TO HELP TO SET UP THE EQUIPMENT,
PROVIDE WITH THE NEEDED TIPS TO WORK WITH THE APPLICATION
Interaction with international and national telemedicine
platforms
The user can avoid visiting
the audiologist, significantly saving time and money
Life Saving App
Truth to be told this app saved my life. I have a moderate hearing loss
in my right ear and it happened suddenly year ago and I’m having
hard time to focus on human speeches and this helps me to listen.
Without this I would’ve been jobless! Thank you guys!

12. Details about Dectone amplification rationales
Dectone is more complex approach to amplification. It is orient-
ed to correct recruitment based on above-threshold audiome-
try
The idea is to estimate the equal loudness curve for user hear-
ing in order to make correction of the recruitment more effec-
tively
This is done simultaneously for both ears in order to estimate
their relative sensitivity and provide balanced binaural correc-
tion

13. Potential for reducing Android processing-time delay
Android becomes a real-time operating system based on changes since the audio
part android 7 and 8, as well as the introduction of API AAudio
Google tightened requirements for manufacturers, regarding the audio part;
Was implemented API AAudio designed for high-performance audio applications
that require low latency (MUST have the continuous round-trip audio latency - 20
ms or less);
Announcement of work on the unification of the type-c connector, with the aim of
creating a new USB substandards for real-time use

15. ECOSYSTEM
We plan to provide software developers with SDK for
audio personalizing on the user's side. Our SDK essen-
tially important for video hosting, stream-music services
and video and voice messengers. A separate audio
plugin is provided for browsers. Integration of third-par-
ty applications into a single ecosystem occurs through
hearing testing in our services - Petralex, Dectone, Hear-
ing test Plus. According to our estimation, the conver-
sion of users using the sound personalization functional-
ity to users of the paid application Dectone is 1%.
HEARING TEST PLUS - VISUALIZATION AND TEXT INTERPRETATION OF TEST RESULTS. COMPARISON
