The Deaf/Hard of Hearing Technology RERC (DHH-RERC) Christian Vogler (Director) Linda Kozma-Spytek (Co-Director) Technology Access Program, Gallaudet University

RERC Mission Consumer control over their technology use, hearing devices, listening experiences Integration of hearing technology with interconnected consumer electronics See Deaf/Hard of Hearing Technology Rehabilitation Engineering Research Center's Website for more details

Activities 3 research projects 3 development projects Standards setting activities

Project R1 Enhanced Aural Rehabilitation for Adult Cochlear Implant Users via Telerehab Technology Evaluates the performance of cochlear implant (CI) users completing an enhanced aural rehabilitation(AR) training telehealth-protocol in a randomized, controlled clinical trial.

Project R2 User-Driven Customization of Cochlear Implant Programming Research into whether users can program some aspects of CIs themselves, and what parameters

Project R3 Validation of Hearing Aid Fitting for Infants and Toddlers Fitting of hearing aids to young infants Physiological, behavioral and parental assessment

Project D1 Development of a Consumer Model for a Technology-Focused Train-the-Trainer Program Network of Consumer Hearing Assistive Technology Trainers (N-CHATT), focus groups, dissemination

Project D2 Context-Sensitive Assessment of Real-World Listening Situations via Integrated Smartphones and Hearing Aids Capture real-time data describing (1) hearing aid user’s perception, (2) listening context, and (3) hearing aid configuration

Project D3 Interactive Learning Environment for Optimizing Technology Use Realistic simulation of soundscapes Allows user to explore listening strategies and settings in safe environment

Standards activities Not a formal project, but key part of RERC Currently: Personal Sound Amplification Products (CTA) Wireless Hearing Aid Compatibility (ANSI C63.19) Real-time text (ATIS IMSESINET and FCC NPRM)
