Abstract

A system for controlling a sound dose of a listener is presented. The system comprises a cloud server operatively connected to a remote storage configured to store a plurality of audio profiles, each comprising sound pressure data and a hearing profile associated with specific users of the system. The system further comprises one or more audio playback arrangements comprising a transducer, a controller, and a microphone arranged to measure a current sound pressure experienced by the listener. The cloud server and/or the controller of said one or more audio playback arrangements comprises controlling circuitry configured to, based on sound pressure data, a hearing profile of the listener and a current sound pressure experienced by the listener, cause estimating of a current estimated time period describing an estimated time until the sound dose of the listener exceeds a sound dose threshold. If the current estimated time period is below a dose period associated with the sound dose threshold, an updated sound pressure is calculated which describes an estimated time until the sound dose of the listener exceeds the sound dose threshold, meets or exceeds the dose period.
