  • Publication number: 20240121561
    Abstract: 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.

  • Patent number: 10948732
    Abstract: A light-emitting unit, comprising a substrate and a light-emitting device, which is situated on the substrate (2) and is designed to emit a laser beam. A swiveling light-deflecting device is situated on the substrate. A capping device is situated on the substrate and covers the light-emitting device and the light-deflecting device, the capping device having a first cap section and a transparent second cap section. The first cap section is designed to redirect the laser beam emitted by the light-emitting device onto the light-deflecting device. The light-deflecting device is designed to deflect the redirected laser beam in such a way that deflected laser beam is able to exit through second cap section.
