الملخص EN
Monitor is a portable vibrotactile aid to improve the ability of people with severe hearing impairment or deafblindness to detect, identify, and recognize the direction of sound-producing events.
It transforms and adapts sounds to the frequency sensitivity range of the skin.
The aid was evaluated in the field.
Four females (44–54 years) with Usher Syndrome I (three with tunnel vision and one with only light perception) tested the aid at home and in traffic in three different field studies: without Monitor, with Monitor with an omnidirectional microphone, and with Monitor with a directional microphone.
The tests were video-documented, and the two field studies with Monitor were initiated after five weeks of training.
The detection scores with omnidirectional and directional microphones were 100% for three participants and above 57% for one, both in their home and traffic environments.
In the home environment the identification scores with the omnidirectional microphone were 70%–97% and 58%–95% with the directional microphone.
The corresponding values in traffic were 29%–100% and 65%–100%, respectively.
Their direction perception was improved to some extent by both microphones.
Monitor improved the ability of people with deafblindness to detect, identify, and recognize the direction of events producing sounds.
