Hearing-aid with operating device
Abstract
Due to the progressive miniaturization of hearing aids, there is less and less space available for the attachment of operating elements (9). It is therefore proposed to provide at least one proximity sensor (6, 12A, 12B) on a hearing aid device (1, 11), so that an operating function is also made possible without direct contact with a control element. In order to operate a hearing aid device (1, 11) according to the invention, in addition to the hearing aid device (1, 11) itself, no further technical aids such as remote control, magnets, etc. have to be carried along.
