    Abstract: A wellness evaluation system may determine, based on data generated by a first set of sensors powered by one or more batteries of one or more ear-wearable devices, that a user of the one or more ear-wearable devices is currently in an environment that includes human-directed communication signals. If so, a second set of sensors may be activated such that the one or more batteries provides an increased amount of power to the second set of sensors. Furthermore, the wellness evaluation system may determine based on data generated by the second set of sensors, whether the user has satisfied a target level of a wellness measure. If the user has not satisfied the target level of the wellness measure, the wellness evaluation system may perform an action to encourage the user to perform one or more activities to increase an achieved level of the wellness measure.

    Abstract: A wellness evaluation system may determine, based on data generated by a first set of sensors powered by one or more batteries of one or more ear-wearable devices, that a user of the one or more car-wearable devices is currently in an environment that includes human-directed communication signals. If so, a second set of sensors may be activated such that the one or more batteries provides an increased amount of power to the second set of sensors. Furthermore, the wellness evaluation system may determine based on data generated by the second set of sensors, whether the user has satisfied a target level of a wellness measure. If the user has not satisfied the target level of the wellness measure, the wellness evaluation system may perform an action to encourage the user to perform one or more activities to increase an achieved level of the wellness measure.

    Abstract: A system including one or more hearing instruments configured to be worn in, on, or about an ear of a user. The system is configured to: determine that the user may prefer either of a first or a second processing mode; apply the first processing mode and the second processing mode to generate a first output audio signal and a second output audio signal; cause one or more hearing instruments to output sound based on the first output audio signal or the second output audio signal; receive an indication of user input that identifies a selected output audio signal from among the first output audio signal and the second output audio signal; and apply a selected processing mode corresponding to the selected output audio signal to generate a third output audio signal; and cause the one or more hearing instruments to output sound based on the third output audio signal.

    Abstract: A method comprises determining, based on signals from sensors of hearing instruments, current values of context parameters; determining, based on the current values of the context parameters, that a current context of the hearing instruments has changed or is likely to change from a first to a second context of a plurality of contexts, wherein each of the contexts corresponds to a different unique combination of potential values of the context parameters; updating statistics of the contexts, wherein for each of the contexts, the statistics of the context include statistics with respect to time the hearing instruments spent in the context; and based on the determination that the current context of the hearing instruments has changed or is likely to change from the first context to the second context, initiating, based on the statistics of at least one of the first or second contexts, one or more actions.
