Wearable computers can be defined as computing devices, which are worn by users on their body . In order to be wearable on the body, state-of-the art wearable computers are usually of small size and very light. In contrast to other mobile computing devices, wearable computers can be used hands-free without users need to hold the device in their hands while using it (like it is needed while using smartphones or tablets). Thus, a hands-free user experience is a key factor of wearable computers. One main type of wearable computers are smart glasses. They consist of typical computer hardware like an integrated processor, a power supply and wireless communication technologies . These components are placed in a case, which has the shape of a glasses frame. Furthermore, the glasses frame usually has a built-in head-mounted display, which is able to show information to users directly in their field of vision. Thus, users can access those information immediately without further delay.
Following are the features of the Smart Glasses
• Drowsiness detection which can detect the closure of eyes while driving or performing any important task and raise an alarm to protect against any damage or casualty:
• OLED display voltmeter, which provides the opportunity to perform minor maintenance or repair at first hand without any delay.
• Wireless alert message/Wireless text message using OLED display in front of smart glasses in absence of GSM/Internet service. |
