Abstract
Headphones are provided having virtual controls displayed on a circular touch screen and integrated memory, the headphones comprising a arcuate headband, a receiver, a transmitter, and computer-readable memory. The headphones are adapted to interact with a wearer through the virtual controls, permitting a wearer to share media wirelessly, assign playback settings, and to accept wireless input from a remote data processing (DPD) device. The headphones may perform a hearing screen test to determine using tones at predetermined frequencies then to amplify frequencies at which a user experiences hearing loss during playback.
