Preliminary Considerations for Wearable Computing in Support o

چکیده
Preliminary considerations for a wearable computer system for astronauts on International Space Station (ISS) during extravehicular activity (EVA) are discussed. The proposed system acts as a client on a wireless network external to the ISS, and provides text, graphics, audio, and video to astronauts using a near-eye display. Primary design considerations include astronaut safety, comfort, ease of use, operational simplicity, and cost. Requirements are highlighted for electrical design, in-suit thermal issues, the space environment, and EVA displays and controls. A suit-internal wearable computer system prototype is proposed. Suit-external components include a camera, video processor, and wireless access point, which provides access for both the suit-internal wearable and other potential wireless EVA tools. Future plans include development and testing of the prototype system.

متن کاملA Wearable System for the Evaluation of the Human-Horse Interaction: A Preliminary Study
This study reports on a preliminary estimation of the human-horse interaction through the analysis of the heart rate variability (HRV) in both human and animal by using the dynamic time warping (DTW) algorithm. Here, we present a wearable system for HRV monitoring in horses. Specifically, we first present a validation of a wearable electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring system for horses in term...
متن کاملFramework for Ubiquitous Social Networks
This paper presents a novel framework for ubiquitous social networks (USNs). Instead of making virtual connections, on the basis of human social networks, an effort has been made to facilitate interactions among human social networks with the help of virtual social networks. The imperative domains that support ubiquitous social networks are highlighted and different scenarios are provided to pr...
