A System Design and Rapid Prototyping of Wearable Computers Course
This paper describes a custom design approach as applied to power management in an innovative course on rapid prototyping of computer systems at Carnegie Mellon. We emphasize the importance of the choice of user interface modalities on power consumption of wearable computers. The paper identifies the major components of power consumption in a wearable computer, and evaluates their respective co...
متن کاملHuman Design: Wearable Computers for Human Networking
Computer technology has mostly focused either on the isolated individual, or has treated the person as a clueless extra wandering in a computer-controlled environment. Researchers seem to have forgotten that people are social animals, and that the quality of their lives is defined by their roles in human organizations. Instead of inventing technology for the individual as an isolated entity, wh...
متن کاملA multidisciplinary course in rapid prototyping of wearable computers
The paper describes a multidisciplinary, systems building course at Carnegie Mellon University. Over the last eight semesters that the course has been taught, teams of undergraduate and graduate students have designed and fabricated seven new generations of wearable computers, using an evolving artifactspecific, multidisciplinary design methodology. Between the first and last generation, the el...
متن کاملErgonomics of Wearable Computers
Wearable computers represent a new and exciting area for technology development, with a host of issues relating to display, power and processing still to be resolved. Wearable computers also present a new challenge to the field of ergonomics; not only is the technology distinct, but the manner in which the technology is to be used and the relationship between user and computer have changed in a...
متن کاملApplication Design for Wearable and Context-Aware Computers
This paper describes a taxonomy of problem solving capabilities for wearable and context aware computers developed from our iterative design methodology, with a wide variety of end users, mainly mobile workers. The taxonomy is illustrated by wearable systems evolving from basic stored information retrieval through synchronous /asynchronous collaboration within a team, to context aware platforms...
