چکیده

Wearable computing will change the current paradigms of human-computer interaction. With heads-up displays, unobtrusive input devices, personal wireless local area networks, and a host of other context sensing and communication tools, wearable computing can provide the user with a portable augmented reality where many aspects of everyday life can be electronically assisted. This paper focuses on several such situations, such as an academic or business conference, classroom note-taking, ooce communication, maintenance, or a visit to a museum.

Collaborative Augmented Reality: A Prototype for Industrial Training

In this paper, we describe a prototype of a collaborative industrial teletraining system, based on distributed augmented reality. Augmented reality typically interfaced by a wearable computer is a natural method to present computer-based tools by merging graphics with a view of the real world. Distribution enables users on remote sites to collaborate on the training tasks by sharing the view of...

WearCom: A Wearable Communication Space

Wearable computers provide constant access to computing and communications resources. We apply traditional virtual reality techniques to develop a wearable body-stabilized space which allows multiple remote people to communicate with a wearable computer user. By combining communication and computing facilities we are able to use spatialised 3D graphics and audio cues to aid communication. The r...

Augmented Reality Through Wearable Computing

Wearable computing moves computation from the desktop to the user. We are forming a community of networked wearable computer users to explore, over a long period, the augmented realities that these systems can provide. By adapting its behavior to the user’s changing environment, a body-worn computer can assist the user more intelligently, consistently, and continuously than a desktop system. A ...
