Patent number: 12520091Abstract: A personal hearing aid (1) is adapted to be carried at the head of a person. The hearing aid comprises an EEG sensor part having electrodes (3) for measuring EEG responses from said person. The hearing aid comprises an EEG signal analyzer (5, 5?) adapted for having an EEG signal transferred from the EEG sensor part, and adapted for monitoring the EEG response. The hearing aid (1) further comprises EEG stimuli controlling means adapted for performing at least one of the following: providing a stimulus to the person, requesting the person to perform a stimuli creating act, or identifying a stimuli creating ambient sound. The hearing aid comprises EEG response detection means for identifying an induced response from the EEG response caused by the stimuli, and a classifier for deciding based on said induced response if the electrodes receive EEG responses. The invention further provides a method of adjusting a hearing aid.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2014Date of Patent: January 6, 2026Assignee: T&W Engineering A/SInventors: Michael Ungstrup, Preben Kidmose, Mike Lind Rank

Publication number: 20240316402Abstract: A system determining a spin axis of a ball includes a radar transmitting a signal into a target area. The radar includes a minimum of three receivers arranged so that two pairs of receivers are not co-linear. The system also includes a Processing Unit (“PU”) receiving data from the radar and determining a radar range of frequencies received at a point in time corresponding to differing velocities relative to the radar of different portions of the ball as the ball is spinning. PU divides the radar frequency range into a plurality of frequency components and calculating, for each of the frequency components, an angular position associated therewith. PU identifies as a projection of the spin axis in a plane perpendicular to a line of sight from the radar to the ball, a line perpendicular to a line represented by the determined angular positions.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 25, 2024Publication date: September 26, 2024Inventors: Fredrik TUXEN, Michael UNGSTRUP, Kasper MACKEPRANG
