An investigation into possible interactions in the vestibular system and the cochlea during electrical stimulation Open
Introduction The vestibular system is crucial for balance, spatial orientation, and gaze stabilization. Bilateral vestibulopathy (BV) severely impairs these functions, often co-occurring with severe to profound hearing loss. Combined cochl…

A Wearable Research System for Combined Cochleo-Vestibular Stimulation Open
Cochlear implants (CI) are a well-established treatment option for patients with severe to profound hearing loss, while vestibular implant (VI) trials give a promising outlook for patients with severely impaired vestibular function. In a n…

Temporal Pitch Perception in Cochlear-Implant Users: Channel Independence in Apical Cochlear Regions Open
Two-electrode stimuli presented on adjacent mid-array contacts in cochlear-implant users elicit pitch percepts that are not consistent with a summation of the two temporal patterns. This indicates that low-rate temporal rate codes can be a…

Speech Perception With Novel Stimulation Strategies for CombinedCochleo-Vestibular Systems Open
Cochlear implants are very well established in the rehabilitation of hearing loss and are regarded as the most successful neuroprostheses to date. While a lot of progress has also been made in the neighboring field of specific vestibular i…

Reduction of eddy current losses in inductive transmission systems with ferrite sheets Open
We find that ferrite sheets can be used to shield the system from unwanted metallic surfaces and to retain the inductive link parameters of the unperturbed system, particularly its transfer efficiency. The required size of the ferrite plat…

Fast fundamental frequency determination via adaptive autocorrelation Open
We present an algorithm for the estimation of fundamental frequencies in voiced audio signals. The method is based on an autocorrelation of a signal with a segment of the same signal. During operation, frequency estimates are calculated an…
