  1. 16. Determining UI design principles for Google Glass and other over-eye interactive device applications

    University essay from Institutionen för informationsteknologi och medier

    Author : Elijs Dima; [2013]
    Keywords : Human-Computer interaction; Google Glass; Application user interface; UI design; Wearable computing; HMD; Over-eye display; Head mounted display; Glassware;

    Abstract : Google Glass is a new personal computing device that employs an over-eyetransparent display together with voice-control in order to offer audiovisual informationto the device's users. Glass is also a new mediated-reality platform,fundamentally different from common computers and smartphones, and theavailable Glass application (Glassware) design guides do not fully cover human-computer interaction issues that are imposed by Glass' characteristics – issuessuch as optimum information density, use of colourization and positioningto separate information, optimum amount of discrete entities on display, and theuse of iconography.

  2. 17. Electrical Characterization of a Textile Sensor for Moisture Detection

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Institutionen Ingenjörshögskolan

    Author : Arun Swaminathan; Muhammad Babar Khan; [2011]
    Keywords : electrical impedance; textile sensors; MATLAB;

    Abstract : Electrical impedance is the frequency domain ratio of the voltage to the current. Electrical impedance extends the concept of resistance to AC circuits, describing not only the relative amplitudes of the voltage and current, but also the relative phases. READ MORE

  3. 18. Context-aware Wearable Device for Reconfigurable Application Networks

    University essay from KTH/Mikroelektronik och Informationsteknik, IMIT

    Author : Andreas Wennlund; [2003]
    Keywords : Context-aware; wearable devices;

    Abstract : Context information available in wearable devices is believed to be useful in many ways. It allows for hiding much of the complexity from the user, thus enabling simpler user interfaces and less user interaction when carrying out tasks on behalf of a user, as well as enabling network operators to provide a better interface to thirdparty service providers who will provide and deliver wireless services.
