Spatial hearing capacities of soldiers with acoustic trauma are evaluated in ENT consultations with routine tests (i.e. tonal audiometry, voice audiometry). While the results conclude that soldiers with acoustic trauma have sufficient abilities to carry out professional missions, soldiers report recurring complaints of sound localization (spatial hearing), i.e. difficulties in identifying the position of sound sources in their environment. However, there is currently no objective test to identify and objectify these complaints of spatial hearing. The investigators have developed a new approach (SPHERE) based on virtual reality and 3D motion tracking, allowing us to evaluate and record the spatial hearing performance of subject with hearing deficit. This system allowed us to highlight localization deficits in three-dimensional space. This project explores and quantifies the spatial hearing impairments of soldiers with acoustic trauma. The quantification of the spatial hearing capacities will allow to define a specific rehabilitation strategy of spatial hearing deficits.
