  • Publication number: 20220095058
    Abstract: A hearing device with an adjustable vent is disclosed. The device includes at least one microphone configured to provide an input signal representing sound, a processor configured to process the input signal and provide a processed signal, at least one loudspeaker configured to receive the processed signal from the processor and to provide an acoustic signal based on the processed signal to the ear of a user, an earpiece comprising a vent, and an electrically controllable valve configured to control the vent, and a valve control unit configured to receive one or more control signals in dependence of a current hearing situation of the hearing device, wherein the valve control unit is configured to adjust the electrically controllable valve in dependence of the one or more control signals to provide the vent to be in a state between an acoustically more open and an acoustically less open state.

  • Patent number: 9294829
    Abstract: A noise reduction filter for a microphone reducing unwanted wind noise includes a first filter element made of a first material configured to filter out wind noise, wherein the first filter element comprises a first surface configured to face towards a first microphone inlet of a first sound tube, the first microphone inlet having a central axis, and a second filter element made of a second material configured to be impermeable to wind, wherein the second filter element is configured to be positioned at the central axis so that a first part of a sound wave travelling towards the first microphone inlet is prevented by the second filter element from passing through a second surface of the first filter element into the first filter element, wherein the second surface is configured to be positioned at the central axis.
