1. Augmented reality glasses, comprising:
a microphone array configured to capture a plurality of audio signals, the plurality of audio signals including sounds from around a user;
an eye-tracking sensor configured to sense eye metrics of the user; and
a processor configured by software to:
apply a filter to the eye metrics from the eye-tracking sensor;
compute a focus point based on the filtered eye metrics and gaze data from other sensors of the augmented reality glasses;
combine the plurality of audio signals according to the focus point to generate a beamformed audio signal in which the sounds around the user are enhanced and suppressed according to their position relative to the focus point; and
adjust an output of an application based on the beamformed audio signal and a gaze direction towards the focus point.
