چکیده
Typical usage scenarios for wearable computers are support of users doing a certain task, e.g. aircraft repair or military applications. If the user is moving while using the wearable some restriction for the user interface apply. In this paper we present some of these restrictions and suggest a wearable user interface taking these findings into account.

Human computer interfaces for wearable computers: a systematic approach to development and evaluation
Over the last decades desktop computers for professional and consumer applications have become a quasi standard, both in owning them and being able to use them for various applications. Recent years are, however, dominated by a new trend in computing: The mobile use of computers. The research presented in this thesis examines user interfaces for wearable computers. Wearable computers are a spec...
متن کاملGeneration of Device Independent User Interfaces
It is inevitable that in the near future, mobile phones, PDA’s, remote controls, wearable computers and other new portable devices will continue to keep our hands and pockets busy. Internet access, home-device controlling, learning and teaching material, interpersonal communications, entertainment and business applications will be ubiquitously accessible and not farther than a mouse / button “c...
متن کاملA Toolkit for Context-aware User Interface Development for Wearable Computers
This paper proposes the design and implementation of a toolkit for creating wearable user interfaces with reusable components. The toolkit is based on a model-driven approach that builds on an abstract model of the required user interface for an application. By using available context information of a wearable system, the toolkit supports context-aware user interfaces that adapt themselves.
متن کاملDevice Independent User Interface Description for Wearable Computers
This report discusses the aspect of user interfaces on wearable computers. Today wearable computers can be of very different size and capabilities. The way of communicating with the user also varies for different devices. This paper looks into several different approaches of describing a user interface that is independent of the underlying device and architecture.
متن کاملEvaluating of Wearable User Interfaces: How to Simulate a Primary Manual Task?
We introduce an apparatus capable of simulating real-world primary tasks typically encountered in wearable computing. The apparatus allows for controlled and reproducible primary task simulations in laboratory experiments while retaining the properties of wearable computers being used in mobile environments different from the desktop. The paper discusses the construction of the so-called HotWir...
