Granted: 2015-10-01
Abstract: SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR COLLECTING, STORING AND PROCESSING INSPECTION DATA Described herein are systems and methods for collecting, storing and processing 5 inspection data. One aspect of the present invention provides a computer implemented method (100) for generating an inspection report. The method includes the initial step (101) of providing a web-based interface for enabling a user to manage inspection data and request an inspection report based on specified input inspection request data. At step (103), in response to a request from a user of the interface, a software application is 10 generated that is executable at a mobile device. The software application is configured for receiving, from an inspector using a mobile device who is to carry out an inspection, data indicative of inspection observations. Step (103) of generating the software application includes two primary sub-steps. At sub-step (105), a database of predefined inspection prompts is accessed thereby to identify a set of inspection prompts based on the 15 inspection request data specified. At sub-step (107) the application is configured to display the set of inspection prompts and provide functionality for receiving, from the inspector, respective responses to those prompts. At step (109), the application is downloaded to a mobile device for use by an inspector. At step (111), the responses to the inspection prompts, input by the inspector input at the mobile device, are received. At 20 step (113), the received responses are stored in the database. Finally, at step (115), the received responses may be processed to generate the inspection report.

Abstract: AUTOMATIC REAL-TIME HEARING AID FITTING BASED ON AUDITORY EVOKED POTENTIALS The application relates to a hearing aid comprising at least one electrode located at a surface of a housing of the hearing aid to allow said electrodes to contact the skin of a user during use of the hearing aid, at least one electrode being adapted to pick up a low voltage signal from the user's brain, the hearing aid further comprising an amplifier unit operationally connected to said electrode(s) and adapted for amplifying said low voltage signal(s) to provide amplified brain signal(s), and a signal processing unit adapted to process said amplified brain signal(s) to provide a processed brain signal as well as to apply a time and frequency dependent gain to an input audio signal and to provide a processed audio output signal. The application further relates to a method of operating a hearing aid and to its use and to a hearing aid system. The object of the present application is to provide a hearing aid capable of monitoring a user's hearing ability over time. The problem is solved in that the hearing aid further comprises a signal generator for generating an electric test signal specifically adapted to be used in an auditory evoked potential (AEP) measurement, the signal generator being operationally connected to said output transducer allowing said electric test signal to be converted to an auditory test stimulus for being presented to a user together with said processed acoustic signal during use of the hearing aid. This has the advantage of providing a hearing aid wherein at least a part of the fitting process of a hearing aid to a particular user can be automated and/or continuously updated. The invention may e.g. be used for the hearing aids or hearing aid systems where a continuous evaluation of a user's hearing thresholds is needed.

Granted: 2017-08-10
Abstract: A normal temperature drying system comprises: a drying inner chamber (1), a temperature difference outer chamber (2), a drainage chute (141), more than one trolleys (121, 122) used for objects to be dried and only disposed in the drying inner channel, and an air conditioning device (22) located on a wall of the temperature difference outer chamber. The temperature of the drying inner channel is controlled by the air conditioning device to be 2°C higher than the temperature of the temperature difference outer channel. Further, as a hot gas flow of a heating component in the drying inner channel is blown towards the wet object to be dried, and air humidity in the drying inner channel is high, moisture is condensed on a metal peripheral wall and a metal top wall as the metal peripheral wall and the metal top wall are relatively cold. Water drops generated after the moisture is condensed flow downwards into the drainage chute along inner walls of the metal peripheral wall and the metal top wall, so as to be drained, thereby achieving an objective of drying the object to be dried.
