Abstract

The less-expensive, neck band wearable system is designed to help persons with hearing ailments by sensing alert sounds and analyzing the direction of arrival (DOA). The neck band kit contains two sound sensors which detect left 180 degree and right 180 degree. The prototype is composed of android app that will be connected to hardware kit through Bluetooth. Each sensor is connected to one of the analog inputs of the microcomputer. The power of the sensor signals is analyzed to detect alert sounds. Upon the detection of an alert sound, the user is notified about the detection of alert sound and it get shown on LCD screen. The developed smart application of android phones which can be connected to Bluetooth (HC-05), used to convert the voice data into text data and vice-versa by enhancing. A low cost programmed nano controller is used at the receiver to receive and display messages in the LCD display. The time required to sense and analyze the direction of an alert sound is around 35 msec.
