Abstract
Various implementations include control mechanisms for managing hearing aid usage. In some cases, an interface with a representation of the hearing aid in space is used to control audio functions in the device. In other cases, directionality of the device is controlled based upon the user's visual focus direction. In additional cases, the operating mode of the device is adjustable based upon the signature of a nearby acoustic signal.
