DYNAMIC HEARING TECHNOLOGY
In the BHSS Anechoic Chamber you will experience the same quiet solitude enjoyed
by hikers at the top of Mount LeConte. Just as the hiker enjoys the silence,
stillness, and beauty of God's creation, the BHSS Anechoic Chamber is a true
mountain top experience.
The BHSS Anechoic Chamber provides a level of silence that enables
our staff to measure the energy of sound waves with accuracy never
before available to us. These measurements will allow us to calibrate
the amplification of each hearing aid to the precise needs of each
individual.
WHAT IS AN ANECHOIC (an-i-ko-ic) CHAMBER?
The BHSS Anechoic Chamber is a large room filled with
sound absorbing cones made of foam and attached to the walls,
ceiling and floor. This unique room absorbs more than 99% of
the energy of sound. It provides a one of a kind area for us
to conduct important research and to fit your hearing aid.
WHAT WILL I SEE AND HEAR?
The sound cones are arranged in an alternating pattern that allows for maximum
absorption of sounds. The cones are everywhere. There is one chair near the
end of the room that is surrounded by several speakers. A computer and soundboard
complete the room. At first, spoken words may sound a bit odd or dull. This
is because the sound cones are doing their job; absorbing the energy of the
sound coming from your voice. |
