Self-guided user interface for Cochlear Implant users, undergraduate honors thesis project
One of the most amazing medical technologies today is the cochlear implant, which restores hearing in individuals with damaged ears through direct electrical stimulation of auditory nerves
I spent two years conducting research through Duke's SSPACISS lab, in which I designed, built and tested self-guided user interfaces that allow cochlear implant users to adjust loudness and frequency parameters, both of which are currently hard-coded in commercial devices
