Abstract
Wearable computing is capable of enhancing day-to-day experiences. It is being exploited by the military and by industry for its many advantages over conventional computing, such as hands-free operation and high mobility. This new style of computing has the potential to bring about a large-scale revolution in culture. That is, it can be used not just on the battlefield or in the workplace, but in all facets of daily life. We believe that it has the capability to enhance the quality of life for many people.
