There is not any two individuals whose five senses work exactly in the same manner. That of course is the reason for difference in food taste and difference in feel of colors from person to person.
Hearing is no exception. There is difference in perception of sounds from one individual to the other. This may be due to inherent trait or physiological character.
Nura is a start-up company present in Melbourne. This had started a Kickstarter campaign recently. This has collected 2.1 million Australian dollars so far. This targets to overcome these hearing differences. They have designed a pair of headphones which functions flexible in accordance with the hearing profile of the listener.
It is really interesting to know that the headphone makes use of both in-ear and circum-aural-design both at the same time. Basically, these carry a pair of earbud hones present within headphone cups. Sounds with high frequency and those with midrange are easy to handle for the in-air component, whereas the bass sounds get handled by around the ear part.
It is the way of mapping otoacoustic emissions that awes with its real magic. These are the sounds produced by inner ear when sounds start stimulating cochlea. Nura team has brilliantly handled this by incorporating a technology which equalizes sounds according to the listener particularly in accordance to the hearing response trait they have.
These headphones come with sensitive microphones helpful in receiving and analyzing a range of sounds produced within and human audible range and those produced exceeding this too. This headphone can also be an aid for listeners who have lost hearing.
The bundled app on smartphone are fired up by entering brief configuration sequence comprising listening of varied frequencies each lasting for 30 seconds. Once this gets over, the profile gets saved and this is applicable to all sorts of sounds played back from then.
