The Well Mannered Wearable Computer

Personal and Ubiquitous Computing, 2002
In this paper we describe continuing work being carried out as part of the Bristol Wearable Computing Initiative. We are interested in the use of context sensors to improve the usefulness of wearable computers. A CyberJacket incorporating a Tourist Guide application has been built, and we have experimented with location and movement sensing devices to ...

Is There a Wearable Computer In Your Future?

1995
Wearable computers are beginning to appear in research environments and soon will be commercially available. We present several different philosophies behind wearable computers and then focus on a particular project at Carnegie Mellon University involving the development of a wearable designed for on-site maintenance of large vehicles. This computer is
