Description
Ear Phantom for R&D is a product with a precise anatomy of a human ear and it can be used for research and development of noise reduction equipment. This can be customized precisely to match your project needs as it can be used under guided ultrasound, X-ray, and MRI imaging. This could be your ideal tool to test and calibrate any hearing aids as well.
It can be fabricated as a stand-alone product or implemented to the full skull and/or head.
