CRITIAS focuses on the development of various technologies designed to complement the human ear, from “intelligent” hearing protection and communications in high-noise environments to the integration of in-ear brain-computer interfaces and wearable hearing diagnostics. The Research Chair activities focus on three areas:
Digital Hearing Protection
- Continuous dosimetry (24 hours)
- Individual susceptibility to hearing loss
- Objective attenuation measurement in real-time
Communication in High-Noise Environments
- In-ear microphone voice pick up
- Onboard radio-communication system
- Radio-acoustic virtual environment (RAVE)
- Selective amplification
- Speech enhancement
In-Ear Biosensing
- Brain-computer interfaces (BCI)
- Cognitive biometry
- Hearing fatigue and recovery measurement
- In-ear biosignals
- In-ear electroencephalography
