ABSTRACT:
An ear covering apparatus for improving the hearing of a person in a rearward direction is disclosed. The apparatus is shaped so as to have a front, a first side, a top, and a bottom and to be open at the opposite side and the rear. The apparatus is worn over the ear such that a concavity is formed between the ear and the apparatus. The opening at the rear is located behind the ear. Further, the apparatus is shaped so as to reflect sound from a rearward direction to the ear. The apparatus also employs a slot in the side for reducing air pressure within the apparatus and thus increasing the level of sound reaching the ear.
