  • Abstract
    Wearable computers offer many potential uses in field archaeology. Our paper presents the uses identified in a Field Archaeology Wearable Computing Workshop held at The University of Birmingham, UK, and describes the challenges and outcomes of a prototype system trialed with ´The Birmingham University Field Archaeology Unit´ at the Forum Novum archaeological site, Italy
