Virtual audiovisual scenes for hearing device fine-tuning

The virtual audiovisual scenes in this upload were developed to be used during hearing device fine-tuning. By letting patients try out the settings of their hearing devices in a number of different daily-life situations, they can experience what it sounds like in different situations. The audiologist can then ask specific questions and make further adjustments to the settings. This may result in a better fit. The development of the virtual audiovisual scenes is documented in a paper presented at Forum Acusticum (Hendrikse, Dingemanse, Grimm, Hohmann, & Goedegebure, 2023). The development and evaluation of the fine-tuning procedure using these virtual audiovisual scenes will be the focus of future work, and the publication will be added to the related identifiers. This document provides a description of the virtual audiovisual scenes, software & hardware requirements, installation and usage instructions, and information about the licensing.
