Wearable computing

Proceedings of the 2005 international symposium on Low power electronics and design - ISLPED '05, 2005
A variety of portable and wearable device form factors such as the VisionPad, WatchPad, WearableData, MetaPad, Personal Mobile Hub, and SoulPad have been prototyped at IBM Research over the last several years. Each of different form factors has some unique advantages and addresses different user needs.

Wearable Computers

2017
Wearable computers include a variety of body-borne sensory, communication, and computational components that may be worn on the body, under, over, or within clothing. These mechanisms have potential benefits for (a) human performance support, (b) cognitive and psychomotor learning, and (c) K-12 educational environments.

A Survey on Wearable Computers

Proceedings of the International Conference on Informatics and Analytics, 2016
Wearable computing is nothing but an attempt to embody Humanistic intelligence. The main feature of Humanistic intelligence is the constancy in the interaction between the human and computers. Wearable computer can act as a prosthetic and thus forming a true extension of user's mind and body.

Creating experiences with wearable computing

IEEE Pervasive Computing, 2002
Wearable computing promises to deliver a rich variety of engaging user experiences that enhance everyday activities and situations through context-sensitive media and interaction. A Walk in the Wired Woods illustrates how we might design such experiences and deliver them in collaboration with artists and musicians.

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 ...

Tactual displays for wearable computing

Digest of Papers. First International Symposium on Wearable Computers, 1997
This paper provides a general overview of tactual displays (i.e., devices that communicate to a user through the sense of touch) and issues concerning the development of such displays for wearable computing. A wearable tactile directional display is presented.

Wearable Computing for the Developing World

IEEE Pervasive Computing, 2005
The project was simple to describe: create a "world computer" that could assist the developing world in leapfrogging the industrial stage of economic development. The World Center for Computing and Human Resources carried out experiments with 6502 machines such as the Apple II, Atari 400, and Atari 800 and established a pilot project in Senegal. In the

A platform for wearable physiological computing

Interacting with Computers, 2004
Abstract As computers emerge, from the desktop and palm top, into everyday life, and on to our bodies there are opportunities to aggregate and present data and to realize and envision applications that have never before been possible. Tracking the physiological state of individuals, at resolutions measured in thousandths of a second instead of in ...
