Abstract

본 논문은 인간의 청각기능을 보조하거나 대체할 수 있는 차세대 청각보조장치 및 완전 이식형 인공와우에 관련한 기술동향에 대해서 기술한다. 청각보조장치는 MEMS 마이크로폰과 음장가시화 기술을 기반으로 하여 청각정보를 시각적으로 전달하고자 하는 장치이다. 이를 위해서는 초소형 MEMS 마이크로폰의 최적화 및 실시간 음장가시화 기술 개발이 선행되어야 한다. 차세대 생체모사 인공와우 기술은 기존 인공와우의 단점인 잦은 충전, 장애 노출 등을 극복하고 향상된 음감을 전달할 수 있는 완전 이식형 인공와우로서 그 기술동향을 논하고자 한다.
