This project explores a novel method to stimulate the auditory system using laser light, potentially transforming hearing aids. By developing frequency-specific activation techniques, it aims to enhance sound perception and improve the quality of life for hearing-impaired individuals.
This proposal presents an unconventional method for the stimulation of the outer and middle ear that may change the current concept of hearing aids.
Photons of the visible light are known to activate the visual sensory cells through photoreceptors.
However, when the so-called stress-confinement condition is fulfilled, laser light can induce an acoustic signal through an optoacoustic effect.
We demonstrated previously that these light induced sound waves, the optoacoustic waves, can be used to…
