Publication number: 20250220362Abstract: A hearing aid device is disclosed. The hearing aid device comprises means to improve, augment and/or protect the hearing capability of a user by receiving acoustic signals from the surroundings of the user, generating corresponding audio signals, possibly modifying the audio signals and providing the possibly modified audio signals as audible signals to at least one of the user's ears. The hearing aid device comprises a sensor member for detecting the movement and/or acceleration and/or orientation (or spatial position) of the hearing aid device. The hearing aid device comprises at least two hearing aid microphones and a control unit for determining the position or a deviation from an intended position of the hearing aid device or hearing aid microphones. The hearing aid device is configured to compensate for a possible dislocation of the hearing aid microphones.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 19, 2025Publication date: July 3, 2025Applicant: Oticon A/SInventors: Michael Syskind PEDERSEN, Kenneth Rueskov MØLLER, Svend Oscar PETERSEN, Niels Stubager KIEMER, Jesper Kofoed NIELSEN, Björn OHL, Marianne Kleist ELMLUND, Karin CARVALHO, Henrik BENDSEN, Regin Kopp PEDERSEN, Christian C.
