Abstract

Techniques for calibrating listening devices are disclosed herein. The techniques include emitting a predetermined audio signal using an outward-facing transducer located on a first portion of a head-mounted device worn by the user, receiving the predetermined audio signal at a microphone located on a second portion of the head-mounted device, the second portion being different from the first portion, determining a transfer function for the user based on the received predetermined audio signal, and applying the transfer function to audio signals transmitted to the user.
