Patent ID: 8027495

Claim:
A method for producing a hearable signal to an individual comprising: first sensing acoustical signals impinging at one of individual's ears; second sensing acoustical signals impinging at the other of individual's ears; generating at one of individual's ears a signal to be perceived by the individual in dependency of the results of said first and second sensings; said dependency including a first dependency from the result of said first sensing weighed by a first weighing factor, and a second dependency from the result of said second sensing weighed by a second weighing factor, said first and second weighing factors being each controllably variable independently from the other; and generating at the other of individual's ears a signal to be perceived by the individual in a further dependency of the results of said sensings, said further dependency including a third dependency from the result of said first sensing weighed by a third weighing factor, and a fourth dependency from the result of said second sensing weighed by a second weighing factor, wherein said first, second, third and fourth weighing factors are each controllable variable independently from the others.
