Research abstract
A hearing protection system is proposed that allows the user to listen to ambient acoustic sounds at safe levels---sometimes known as a "talk-through" system. The system exhibits high noise attenuation properties due to dual hearing protection. Directivity and frequency response is preserved yielding a very natural listening experience. The system is fully wireless, and a noise dosimeter is integrated. The system will be compatible with the aircraft carrier and helicopter/fixed-wing aircraft environment.
