    Abstract: Certain embodiments provide a hearing testing system. The hearing testing system includes a transducer and an environmental sensor coupled with an acoustic channel. The environmental sensor is configured to measure environmental conditions of the acoustic channel. The hearing testing system includes a processor. The processor is configured to receive the environmental conditions from the environmental sensor. The processor is configured to apply, based on the measure environmental conditions, correction data to a transducer response to generate a corrected transducer response. In certain embodiments, the processor is configured to control a heating element based on a measured temperature to maintain a pre-defined temperature, or range of temperatures, at a testing probe.

    Abstract: The invention is directed toward a method of reducing motion sickness comprising the steps of introducing cooled gas into a user's ear canal to reduce the temperature of the user's tympanic membrane and vestibular system. The gas is circulated in the user's inner ear, and then exhausted to the atmosphere. The cooled gas induces nystagmus in the user, promotes vestibular desensitization and resistance to motion sickness. The apparatus contemplated for the prevention of motion sickness has an earpiece having a conduit that dispenses cooled gas into the user's ear canal. Gas is provided by a gas source connected to the earpiece with flexible tubing.

    Abstract: Provided is an ear drying device includes an adapter sleeve defining an outer surface and an inner surface defining a fluid chamber. A fluid flow is generated through the fluid chamber when the adapter sleeve is engaged with a hair dryer. An exhaust vent extends from the outer surface to the inner surface. An inlet vent extends from the outer surface to the inner surface and is spaced axially from the exhaust vent. The adapter sleeve is sized and configured to draw ambient air through the inlet vent into the fluid chamber in response to fluid flowing through the fluid chamber. A diffuser is disposable within the adapter sleeve and is sized and configured to direct a portion of the fluid flow toward the exhaust vent. An ear piece is engageable with the adapter sleeve and is configured to direct fluid toward the user's ear.
