Talk:Wearable computer

So, this is my first article. I'm somewhat new to publishing stuff in wiki's so I might need a bit help here.

I use Steve Mann's definition of wearable computers, because he is one of the most important people in the scene. I modified it a bit here and there, to make it a bit more readable by changing some words and updating it a bit to our time, as the definition was published in -98.

Am I doing this the right way? It's mostly taken from http://wearcam.org/wearcompdef.html which I'll add as a source as soon as I know how to. Is it right to use that definition like this and modifying it a bit? Also, as it's taken partly from his keynote, it's probably copyrighted, but it's ok to use something that short?

Differentiation from other computing

These are early morning comments after insufficient coffee, but how would you distinguish wearable computers from internal, biologically linked computers such as my cardiac pacemaker, or from an external-to-the-user ubiquitous computing model where the computing is not worn, but seems to be trying to produce a similar customized user experience? I don't think I've put it up on CZ, but I will look for some commentary I wrote on ubiquitous computing versus virtual reality; this is a complement and extension to that.

Do you differentiate this from personal area network?

Good start! --Howard C. Berkowitz 14:06, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
