Guest guest Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 The UTD press release ( see link in article) pretty much explains it - an app for cellphones to adjust CI programs. I wrote to the lead researcher, Dr, Philip Loizou back in January, for more specific information. Here is the message exchange: Mr MacPherson: Thanks for your inquiry. Cochlear's Remote Assistant for the Nucleus 5 system does allow you to select different environments (e.g., music, noise), however it is limited in that it only allows you the options offered by the manufacturer. Clinicians or researchers can not expand or change the (canned) settings for different individuals accommodating perhaps listening settings encountered in different professions. Our PDA system is more flexible and provides to researchers the freedom to program it any way they want. It also offers the possibility of recording challenging real-world situations/environments, and bringing those to the lab/clinic to analyze. This will allow the clinicians/researchers to program the device for a better listening experienced tailored to each individual patient. I hope that clarifies the differences. Let me know of any further questions. Regards, Philip Loizou =============================================== Philip C.
