Abstract
Developed by the Center for Robust Speech Systems at the University of Texas at Dallas, in collaboration with New York University and the University of Wisconsin-Madison, CCi-MOBILE addresses a critical challenge in optimizing cochlear implant (CI) fitting and enhancing sound coding strategies. Existing clinical CI processors and research tools often lack either the necessary computational power and flexibility or the portability required for real-world testing. CCi-MOBILE bridges this gap by enabling the implementation and evaluation of diverse real-time sound coding algorithms in both laboratory and real-world settings, including those requiring synchronized bilateral stimulation. Building upon previous publications, this paper provides new detailed discussion on parameter setting for stimulus generation with CCi-MOBILE and serves as a comprehensive resource for scientists and engineers developing novel real-time sound coding and signal processing strategies with this platform. As part of an ongoing development effort, future generations of CCi-MOBILE may offer additional functionalities beyond those described here.
