2. ABSTRACT
Wearable computer is a portable computers
that is included into the space of a user, this can be worn
anywhere around the body and can be hands free use.
Particularly it is a device that is always with the
user, the user is able to enter commands and execute a set
of entered commands while the user is walking around or
doing any other activity.

4. INTRODUCTION
 In this, wearable computers differ from PDAs (personal
digital assistant), which are designed for hand-held use.
 Wearable computers are usually either integrated into the
user's clothing or can be attached to the body through some
other means, like a wristband.
 They may also be integrated into everyday objects that are
constantly worn on the body, like a wrist watch or a hands-
free cell phone.
 A small portable computer that is designed to be worn on
the body during use.

7. History of wearable computers
 Wearable Computers were first introduced in the 1500's
with the pocket watch.
 In 1967, Hubert Upton developed a technology which
allowed the person wearing the glasses to lip read, this was
using the LED device.
 Even in the 1980's and the 1990's wearable computers
were being created.

8. HOW IT WORKS
 Some wearable computers use “keyers” (key switches
mounted to a grip, rather than to a board, as with a keyboard)
and trackballs as input device.
 Many try to use more intangible means of input like gesture,
speech recognition or context awareness.
 The output may be presented through displays, lights,
sound or even haptic interfaces(touch screen).

Examples:
 Water turned into fire
 Simple objects become dangerous
 Mime(multipurpose internet mail extension) wearing small
wearable computer in pack pack
 flat panel display is connected for audience to use

18. Applications
There are several applications of WC
 Augmented memory
 Finger tracking
 Face recognition
 Visual filter
 Navigation
 Repair instruction
 Communication management
 Remote sensing and maintenance

19. The Advantages of Wearable
computers
 Enhanced Communication
 Able to use wearable computers to complete daily tasks
such as a computer which tracks the movements and habits
of a person.
 Flexibility
 Freedom
 Work from anywhere
 Convenience

20. The disadvantages of Wearable
Computers
 Equipment can be heavy, Expensive
 Some Wearable Computers can consist of a lot of wiring
 Can cause irritation in heat, Side-Effects such as Headaches
 Can be used to gain an unfair advantage over others
 It may become easier to get data on an individual if the item
is lost/stolen

21. Conclusion:The use of mobile and wearable computers
as actual “tools” on the construction site will
enable interaction with smart infrastructure
systems in the future. But to reach this goal,
we face some challenges that have to be
solved.
