Abstract

See full text

A method of following a sound source with a hearing aid device. The hearing aid device has a plurality of microphones, a monitoring device, a locating device, a directional device, an energy source, a controller and an electro-mechanical transducer. The directional device generates a signal with a variable directional characteristic from the microphone signals. The directional signal is monitored for an incipient acoustic signal from a sound source from a predetermined direction range. The locating device determines the direction of origin of the sound source. A predetermined directional characteristic with an orientation toward the first sound source is also set in the directional device. The locating device then determines a change in the direction of origin of the first sound source and the orientation of the directional characteristic is set based on the changed direction of origin in the directional device.
