Abstract
A light fixture and directional assistive listening device includes a portable lamp fixture, a parabolic sound membrane, and a light and acoustic transducer assembly. The portable lamp fixture includes a stand, a light socket, and a primary power cord. The primary power cord is electrically connected to the light socket through the stand. The parabolic sound membrane is concentrically attached to the light socket. The light and acoustic transducer assembly is electrically connected to the light socket and concentrically positioned within the parabolic sound membrane. When the light and acoustic transducer assembly is communicably coupled with an external audio device, the light and acoustic transducer is able to output greater clarity of speech and directionality of sound due to the configuration and positioning of the light and acoustic transducer assembly and the parabolic sound membrane.
