The transmitter, which was placed over the implant
just behind the ear, sends coded signals to the implant within the
cochlea. (Implant not shown.) If you ever wondered what speech would
sound like via a single electrode cochlear implant, wonder no more.
Here is a recording made by using an induction coil to pick up the
signal from the transmitter that is being sent to the implanted
electrode. Below is the link to the sound recording and below it is a
transcript of this recording. (Press your browser's back button to

23 second recording "This is a test of the House 3M
single-channel cochlear implant speech processor approved by the FDA in
1984. This recording was made through an induction loop receiver. It
would appear that the signal produced is analog."
