Assignee: COCHLEAR LIMITED
Field: Audio-visual technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H  A | IPC H

Claim 16:
17. A method, comprising:
obtaining data indicative of respective perceived loudnesses for a plurality of sensory percepts respectively evoked based on different electrical stimulation signals of a sensory stimulator sensory stimulator;
creating a program for the sensory stimulator based on the obtained data by adjusting at least one of the respective electrical stimulation signals based on data of a respective perceived loudness for other electrical stimulation signals; and
configuring the sensory stimulator to have the created program, wherein
at least one of:
the action of creating a program includes adjusting a loudness scaling test dataset based on statistical data;
the method further includes identifying electrical stimulation signal(s) corresponding to a threshold level for a recipient of the sensory stimulator;
the different electrical stimulation signals are based on sound captured by a microphone of the sensory stimulator;
the method further includes identifying electrical stimulation signal(s) corresponding to a comfort level for the recipient; or
the adjustment of the at least one of the respective electrical stimulation signals results in a plurality of different current levels located between a current level used with the electrical stimulation signals corresponding to the threshold level and a current level used with the electrical stimulation signals corresponding to the comfort level.
