The choice of wearing ear, etc., should be considered in favor of “speaking”, such as the choice of amplification and compression, frequency expansion and mobile technology selection, signal processing and speech recognition technology selection, high fidelity technology selection, The choice of compatible auxiliary devices, etc., must also consider the children’s lively and active sweating, curiosity, and the hearing aids as a toy for disassembly, no protection and maintenance awareness.
