Abstract:
Apparatus for testing the directional hearing of a test person uses an audio system with a plurality of audio transducers to produce audible audio signals to a position of the test person and a light output system with a plurality of light output devices to produce visible light signals to the position of the test person. A control device is configured to activate the audio system to output a plurality of audible audio signals one after another arriving at the position of the test person in such a way that they arrive or appear to arrive from a selected one of a plurality of different directions, and to activate the light output devices to indicate the selected direction at a particular time in relation to the respective audio signals.

Claim (Index 10):
A vehicle comprising:\n an interior cabin having a seating position for a test person; an audio system comprising a plurality of audio output devices for output of audible audio signals to the position of the test person; a light output system comprising a plurality of light output devices for the output of light to the position of the test person; and a control device connected to the audio system and to the light output system configured to:\n activate the audio system to output a plurality of audible audio signals one after another to the position of the test person in such a way that, for the test person, each respective audio signal arrives from a respective one of a plurality of different directions; and \n activate the light output system to output light indicative of a corresponding one of the plurality of different directions to at least the position of the test person, wherein the light output system is arranged to assign at least one of the light output devices to each of the plurality of different directions in which the audio signal source can be located for the test person, and to arrange for each respective activation of a light output device to be output at a particular time in relation to the respective audio signal.
