Abstract
Infants, children and adolescents have specific needs reflected by their growth, activities and use of technology. We present their cognitive, emotional, physical, physiological, sensory, and social characteristics. Based on impacts on fundamental needs, we discuss dedicated systems exploiting wearable computers and the proper design of such systems. Our most significant contribution is to provide the first overview of young people´s specific needs in wearable computing.
