2.5 - 10 million people in Europe to develop HL because of Personal Media Players (PMPs)
EN50332-1 and -2 requirements for PMPs sold in Europe
WHO likely to follow suit
“Dangerous Decibels” US campaign
EN 50332-1, EN 50332-2Doesn’t work with ITU-R BS.1770
EN 50332-1, EN 50332-2High “pressure” needed to get enough output
PMPs and Hearing Loss
has had mandatory requirements since 2013: EN50332-1, -2TC108X/WG3 is making progress on dose estimation (phase 3)Dose estimation to reduce false warnings, to protect music heritageCurrently, exposure uncertainty can be 30 dB or more (1000 times)
Europe
Phase 1 and 2 implemented in IEC 62368-1, clause 10.6IEC
