Abstract: An electronic device comprising: a housing; a first structure extending outwardly from a surface of the housing; and a plurality of first electrodes disposed on the first structure and separated from each other by an insulating material.

Abstract: Disclosed is a hearing device that may classify sound environment based on a life pattern, and categorize sound information using a sound environment category set based on the life pattern, and control an output of the sound information based on the classified sound environment.

Abstract: Disclosed are a terminal and a method of pairing a terminal with a hearing apparatus. The method of pairing a terminal involves verifying whether a hearing apparatus is in contact with a terminal, and pairing the terminal with the hearing apparatus in response to a determination that the hearing apparatus is in contact with the terminal.

Abstract: A hearing aid and a method of controlling a hearing aid are provided. The hearing aid includes a sensor configured to obtain sensor data corresponding to a user movement, a pattern identifying unit configured to identify a pattern in the sensor data, and a control unit configured to determine whether a pattern identifier is present in the pattern of the sensor data and to control operation of the hearing aid.

Abstract: An apparatus for objectively detecting a cochlea dead region based on electrophysiology and an information provision method for detecting a cochlea dead region using the apparatus. A cochlea dead region detection apparatus including a control unit is also disclosed. The control unit includes a stimulus generation unit for generating stimuli and an Acoustic Change Complex (ACC) measurement unit for measuring ACCs depending on the stimuli.

Abstract: A guiding apparatus and a method for cochlear implant are disclosed. In one embodiment, the guiding apparatus for cochlear implant comprises i) an optical tube for transmitting an optical signal, ii) an optical signal emitting module for converting an electrical signal into the optical signal and emitting the optical signal through another end of the optical tube, iii) an optical signal detecting module for receiving the optical signal that is reflected by an obstacle or an inner wall of cochlear through another end of the optical tube and converting the received optical signal into an electrical signal and iv) a central processor for analyzing optical emission energy information and optical detection energy information to generate inserting route information. According to one embodiment, it is possible to decrease injuries to the inner wall of a cochlear canal and optimize the position of an electrode to be inserted into the cochlear canal.
