Tympan is an open source hearing aid development platform. Our goal is to lower barriers for hardware and software development, and facilitate translation of these advances into use in hearing aids, cochlear implants, and consumer electronics devices. Tympan has been in development since 2016, and Rev C has been externally validated. Currently we are in development for Rev E, along with some tools for extending Tympan capabilities for experimental music, behind the ear hardware and more!
We developed Tympan because we saw and felt a need for accessible affordable alternatives to traditional proprietary devices, often costing thousands of dollars. Tympan open hardware and software is available for just a fraction of that.
We are committed to open source culture and believe that in doing so we can accelerate within our community research studies that facilitate the translation of novel algorithms into widespread use for people in need of these devices.
