New Hearing Sensor

I would like to invent a brand new hearing sensor.

When we have this new sensor inside our body or skin, we do not need to hear the sound through our ears any more. This new sensor will locate at our skin of arms or around our neck. A new type of speaker like a sticker will be invented. We can stick it on our skin, get the audio signal through this new type of sticker speaker, and perceived the presence of sound through our new hearing sensor which are on our skin.

The sound will not vibrate through the conduction to the cochlea, and then perceive the corresponding sound frequency. This new type of sensor will break the conduction sound wave vibration way, the sonic vibration data will transfer into digital signals and sending this digital signal through the sticker speaker to our new hearing sensor. The new hearing sensor will re-crack the digital signal from the stick-type speaker and convert it to the sound information which our brain can accept and analyze and sense.

The sound will be translated into the electrical signaling through the MHR chemical element and trigger the brain to react.

Here I made two mode through processing, to illustrate the idea how this new sensor will translate signal.

Sound is translated into the MHR chemical element.(Using processing to build the mechanism).
