摘要:
Embodiments are directed to detecting the effect of external auditory sounds on a subject using a hands-free stethoscope, and further playing back those external auditory sounds as they are experienced inside a subjects body. A system is provided which includes a microphone that detects auditory sounds that are external to the system, and a stethoscope diaphragm that detects sound waves emitted within or as experienced in a subjects body. The stethoscope diaphragm also transfers a representation of those sound waves to a processor or to a headphone jack for playback. The processor of the system receives the representation of sound waves and also receives the detected external auditory sounds to determine what effect the detected external auditory sounds are having on the subject or on a second subject. The system also includes a communications module configured to communicate the results of the determination with other electronic devices.
