Designing Wearables: A Brief Discussion

Richard Hurford, Adam Martin, Jane McCann

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Conference contribution › peer-review

Abstract

This paper has been used to highlight our thought on some of the issues that are to be raised at the Design Workshop. Including brief discussion on; how design fits into wearable computing, how evaluations of design contributions can be made, guidance for designers and submissions, interdisciplinary working practices and their usefulness to wearable computing, and of design issues
applicable to wearable computing.

Our views are formed as designers and therefore will provide a insight for the traditional ‘non-designer’ wearable computing community. We hope that this paper will encourage further in depth discussion.

This paper is intended to contribute towards establishing a valid set of recommendations, which will be used to drive the issues and implementation of design within the wearable computing community.
