Tympan Nyaa Update 

The hearing prosthetic project continues!

Ran into some delays in getting the miniaturized board ready before a conference, so I'm building out a very big hearing rig!

I'm almost done with the skeleton: a large, wide fabric covered plastic headband and a pair of felt ears with some heavy gauge gardening wire attached. I've glued the ears to the band and am in the process of sewing them down.

It's very important to me that the ears feel like one solid object, so I want to create as stable of a base as possible.

The tympan model d sound processor will fit in one ear, and a spare battery and amplifier will fit in the other. A transducer speaker will be attached to the headband, resulting in bone conductive hearing via cat ears! (though these are big enough they could pass for bat ears)
