  • Abstract
    Speech recognition seems like an attractive input mechanism for wearable computers, and as we saw in this magazine´s first issue, several companies are promoting products that use limited speech interfaces for specific tasks. However, we must overcome several challenges to using speech recognition in more general contexts, and interface designers must be wary of applying the technology to situations where speech is inappropriate.
