Hearing Brain Science Institute

-For the realization of a universal society through correct understanding of auditory function and communication-
The Institute conducts basic and clinical research in the fields of hearing and the brain, which are important for people to engage in social activities. We are also conducting research and development of auditory assistive technologies that apply the latest acoustic technologies.
In addition to widely publicizing the results of our research, we also hold training sessions to provide basic knowledge on hearing support and dialogue support technology to people in Japan and other countries, including those in Asia, as well as to foster human resources. In a super-aged society, the various effects of hearing loss are becoming increasingly important, as research results from around the world show. The Institute conducts research on various seeds and needs for communication support, and conducts surveys and research based on the basic concept of “social application of technology.

□Hearing Frailty Research Support
Conduct and support surveys of local residents using the research version of the Hearing Frailty Check App for Everyone.

□Holding seminars for the general public and lectures for medical and caregivers on Hearing Frail.
Support for designing clinical studies using dialogue support systems

Support for sound field research
Support for research using a hearing loss simulator application to measure the intelligibility of speech in a room, and support for research using the application.
