Clothing conveys a strong communicative message in terms of social signals, influencing the impression and behaviour of others towards a person; unfortunately, the nature of this message is not completely clear, and social signal processing approaches are starting to consider this problem.

Assessing the Wearability of Wearable Computers
2006 10th IEEE International Symposium on Wearable Computers, 2006In terms of mounting a computer on the body, the computer's weight, size, shape, placement and method of attachment can elicit a number of effects. Inappropriate design may mean that the wearer is unable to perform specific tasks or achieve goals.

In robotics, activity-recognition systems can be used to label large robot-generated activity data sets. It enables activity-aware human-robot interactions (HRIs). It also opens ways to self-learning autonomous robots. The recognition of human activities from body-worn sensors is a key paradigm in wearable computing.

Wearability in wearable computers
2008 12th IEEE International Symposium on Wearable Computers, 2008Wearability, or the relationship between a worn technology and the ability or desire of the user to wear it, is a key element in the successful design of wearable technologies. Wearability addresses the physical, cognitive, and emotional state of the user, and the impact of the wearable technology on the user's homeostasis in each area.

Seismocardiogram (SCG) is the recording of body vibrations induced by the heart beat. SCG contains information on cardiac mechanics, in particular heart sounds and cardiac output. In this paper we present a new wearable device for SCG recordings during long term monitorings, and the results of a validation test in 4 subjects. The system is based on the

Technological advances have increased life expectancy and improved quality of life for patients with heart disease. A new device, called the wearable defibrillator, is designed to provide monitoring and defibrillation capability for patients who have had an infarct and those awaiting heart transplantation.

Wearables are becoming the next Big Thing, and it is clear that they will become increasingly integrated into the Web of Things, instead of just being standalone resources that are not linked into the Web. Such a Web of Wearables will make wearables as easily accessible as other Web resources, allowing new classes of applications and systems to use ...

Early development of Wearables emerged through professional silos of computer science and fashion design and resulted in two distinct branches typified by an aesthetic approach from fashion and by a function and ocular-centric approach from science. Attempts at collaboration between these silos tended to bring the two methodologies into conflict and ...

"Is there space for wearables?"
Proceedings. Sixth International Symposium on Wearable Computers,, 2003The integration of man, a protective suit, and computer has been an integral part of the vision presented in science fiction movies and books since long before the Borg strode across the Star Trek screen. It is easy to envision using computers in countless ways to augment human perception, recall, and reactions to provide huge gains in personal safety ...
