Deveolopment of Simulation Program and Guide Book for Understanding Senile Hearing Impairement

为了开发模拟老年听障人士的视听呈现系统，对听障人士的听觉特征进行了研究。这些声学和听力学意义被应用于模拟程序和理解老年听力障碍指南的内容。收集了典型的6个场景，包括高频语音和声源。声学材料根据听力障碍的严重程度、与老化过程和暴露于环境噪声有关的听力配置进行数字化处理和编辑。正常听力的人可以通过模拟器和指南来了解听障老年人的听觉困难情况。

In order to develop an audiovisual presentation system of a simulated senil impaired hearing of the aged, auditory caracteristics of impaired hearing were examined. Those acoustical and audiological implication were applied to the contents of the simulation program and guide book for understanding senile hearing impairement. Typical 6 scenes including high frequency speech and sound sorces were collected. The acoustic materials were digitaly processed and edited corresponding to the severity of hearing impairement, the audiometric configuration concerned with the aging process and exposure to environment noise. Normal hearing people can learn the difficult auditory conditions of hearing impaired aged people operating the simulator and the guide book.
