Abstract
Wearable computing means a paradigm shift: instead of working at the computer users are supported by computing systems in their primary tasks. Thus wearable computing is ideal to develop new insight into the behaviour of the Concurrent Enterprise. Currently wearable computing is still a technology of niches and in a laboratory stage. However, with wearIT@work a project dedicated to applications was launched by the European Commission (EC IP 004216). The first 18 months of this project are over and demonstrators, evaluations and results are available. In this paper the concept of the project is briefly introduced and results are presented showing the impact of wearable computing for the Concurrent Enterprise. This impact is based on the cyclic and user centred design approach in developing the different pilot application demonstrators for the four application domains of maintenance, production, healthcare and emergency response.
可穿戴式计算意味着一种范式的转变:用户不再在电脑前工作,而是由计算系统来支持他们的主要任务。因此,可穿戴计算对于开发对并行企业行为的新见解是理想的。目前,可穿戴计算仍然是一项小众技术,处于实验室阶段。然而,通过wearIT@work,欧盟委员会启动了一个专门用于应用程序的项目(EC IP 004216)。这个项目的前18个月已经结束,已经有了演示、评估和结果。本文简要介绍了该项目的概念,并给出了可穿戴计算对并发企业的影响。这种影响是基于循环和以用户为中心的设计方法,为维护、生产、医疗保健和应急响应四个应用领域开发不同的试点应用示范。
