Abstract: A binaural hearing aid system comprises left and right hearing instruments each comprising a BTE-part comprising a housing configured to be located at or behind an outer ear of the user and an acceleration sensor configured to measure acceleration in at least two directions relative to the housing of the BTE-part and to provide acceleration data indicative thereof. A first one of the left and right hearing instruments comprises a transmitter configured to transmit said acceleration data to the other hearing instrument, and the other hearing instrument comprises a receiver for receiving said acceleration data from the first one of the hearing instruments. The other hearing instrument further comprises a controller for detecting whether or not the left and right hearing instruments are correctly mounted in dependence of a similarity measure between said acceleration data provided by the left and right hearing instruments. A method of operating a binaural hearing aid system is further disclosed.

Abstract: A method, in particular performed by at least one hearing device, a hearing device, a binaural hearing system, and a computer program are disclosed. The method can include detecting at least one motion signal of at least one hearing device, processing the at least one motion signal of the at least one hearing device in three individual channels representing three spatial dimensions x′, y′, z′ of the at least one hearing device, calibrating the orientation of the three spatial dimensions x′, y′, z′ of the at least one hearing device to a standardized orientation of the head of the user wearing the at least one hearing device, and determining the amount of motion of the at least one hearing device in at least one of the calibrated spatial dimensions x, y, z of the at least one hearing device.

Abstract: Hearing aid system comprising at least one hearing aid is provided. The hearing aid system further comprising an input unit for receiving an input sound signal from an environment of the hearing aid user and providing at least one electric input signal representing said input sound signal, an output unit for providing at least one set of stimuli perceivable as sound to the hearing aid user based on processed versions of said at least one electric input signal, a processing unit connected to said input unit and to said output unit and comprising signal processing parameters to provide said processed versions of said at least one electric input signal, at least one photoplethysmogram (PPG) sensor configured to provide a PPG signal of the hearing aid user, and a listening effort determination unit configured to provide at least one PPG morphology parameter value based at least on the PPG signal, compare the at least one PPG morphology parameter value with at least one corresponding reference PPG morphology parameter value and determine a morphology comparison measure, and determine a listening effort of the hearing aid user. A hearing aid is further provided.

Abstract: A bearing aid is configured to be located at or in an ear of a user. The hearing aid comprises a heartbeat detector providing a pulse control signal, and a processor. The processor is configured to estimate whether the hearing aid is located at a left or a right ear of the user in dependence of the pulse control signal. A method of operating a bearing aid and a binaural hearing aid system is further disclosed.
