This application simulates auditory pareidolia in hearing impairment.
The phenomenon affects an estimated 16–24% of all hearing-impaired individuals.
You hear what the brain adds when sensory input is missing.

The simulation combines three components:
• Low-frequency tinnitus (125 Hz, as in Ménière's disease)
• High-frequency hearing loss (simulated through frequency filtering)
• Pareidolia algorithms (spectral enrichment, harmonic addition)

Choose between three everyday scenarios:
Waiting room, City traffic, Silent apartment.
Adjust severity from mild to severe.
Enable/disable individual components.

Safety disclaimer: This is an experimental demonstration tool.
Keep volume at 50–60% maximum (below 70 dB recommended).
Limit continuous exposure to 15–20 minutes to prevent auditory fatigue.
If you experience discomfort, ringing, or muffled hearing, stop immediately.
