Intelligent Wearable Interfaces (PDF)

A thorough introduction to the development and applications of
intelligent wearable interfaces

As mobile computing, sensing technology, and artificial
intelligence become more advanced and their applications more
widespread, the area of intelligent wearable interfaces is growing
in importance. This emerging form of human-machine interaction has
infinite possibilities for enhancing humans' capabilities in
communications, actions, monitoring, and control.

Intelligent Wearable Interfaces is a collection of the efforts
the authors have made in this area at The Chinese University of
Hong Kong. They introduce methodologies to develop a variety of
intelligent wearable interfaces and cover practical implementations
of systems for real-life applications. A number of novel
intelligent wearable interface systems are examined, including:

* Network architecture for wearable robots

* Wearable interface for automatic language translation

* Intelligent cap interface for wheelchair control

* Intelligent shoes for human-computer interface

* Fingertip human-computer interface

* Ubiquitous 3D digital writing instrument

* Intelligent mobile human airbag system

This book is a valuable reference for researchers, designers,
engineers, and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in
the fields of human-machine interactions,rehabilitation
engineering, robotics, and artificial intelligence.
