I have sensoneural hearing loss as well and fyi Bose Hearphones do have something a little like this with directional noise cancellation that helps a lot. They are discontinued but you can find them refurbished.
- gertlex 2y agoMy phonak HAs have some directional noise cancellation (or biasing at least; I don't have rigorous definitions for these terms)... It helps but isn't great. Has a problem that I think the AI headphones wouldn't solve either: in a (non-quiet) group setting you still need to anticipate who's going to speak when and look at them for best results. The direction bit is just biasing to preferring forward stuff (via two mics on each ear's HA). Sadly, no backwards bias option for overhearing people behind you ;)

- richrichardsson 2y ago> Sadly, no backwards bias option for overhearing people behind you ;) Put them on "backwards"; left cup on right ear and vice versa: forward facing mics now face backwards ;)
- gertlex 2y agoIt's a bit physically trickier than that due to curved tubing and ear molds... but I could totally "try" it with friends, e.g. rotating the BTE hearing aid 180 so it's forward, and they'd have fun too.
- gedy 2y agoThe Bose have 2 settings for this, 180 degrees frontal, and a much narrow directly in front of you.
- esperent 2y agoMy Sony's have a "focus on voice" setting in the noise cancelling section of their app. Is it similar?
- gedy 2y agoI haven't tried those but sounds like possibly just adjusts frequencies vs using directional mics. Might be same as Airpods Pro which I should try.
