Abstract: A method for processing an audio signal includes generating a user hearing profile and calculating, based on the user hearing profile, at least one set of audio content-specific DSP (digital signal processing) parameters for one or more sound personalization algorithms. One or more of the calculated sets of content-specific DSP parameters are associated with a content-identifier for their respective specific content. In response to an audio stream on an audio output device, the audio stream is analyzed to determine at least one content type. Based on the determined content type, corresponding content-specific DSP parameters are outputted to the audio output device, based at least in part on their content identifier. An audio signal is processed on the audio output device by using a given sound personalization algorithm parameterized by the corresponding content-specific DSP parameters.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for ambient sound enhancement on a mobile device. A user hearing profile is generated and a set of ambient sound enhancement digital signal processing (DSP) parameters is calculated for a sound enhancement algorithm, based at least in part on the user hearing profile. In response to a user initiating an ambient sound enhancement function on a mobile computing device, at least one set of calculated ambient sound enhancement DSP parameters is retrieved. Ambient sound is captured with a microphone of the mobile computing device and processed with an ambient sound enhancement DSP. The ambient sound enhancement DSP is parameterized with the retrieved set of calculated ambient sound enhancement DSP parameters and the DSP enhanced processed audio signal is outputted to a transducer of the mobile device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for adaption of telephonic signal are provided. A telephonic listener's demographic information is first received. Next, a set of preset parameters are retrieved from a database based on the demographic information. The preset parameters are calculated using hearing data, which is representative of a demographic group. These preset parameters are then outputted to a sound personalization digital signal processing (DSP) algorithm. A voice signal is then processed using the sound personalization DSP and the processed voice signal is then outputted at the listener's telephonic device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for adaption of telephonic signal are provided. A telephonic listener's demographic information is first received. Next, a set of preset parameters are retrieved from a database based on the demographic information. The preset parameters are calculated using suprathreshold and/or threshold hearing data, which is representative of a demographic group. These preset parameters are then outputted to a sound personalization digital signal processing (DSP) algorithm. A voice signal is then processed using the sound personalization DSP and the processed voice signal is then outputted at the listener's telephonic device.
