ABSTRACT ON CLOTH COMPUTING
There is a major movement going on in the electronics and computer industries to develop wearable devices for what’s being called Post-PC era. We are now at the dawn of that era and some of these devices are already making their way to the consumer market .Computerized clothes will be the next step in making computers and devices portable without having to strap electronics into our body. These digital clothes will able to perform some of the PC functions. These devices are small in size and portable. This apparel can be used to read our heart rate and breathing. The LED monitors could even be integrated into this apparel to display text and images.
APPLICATION
Wisely designed technology can properly address the concern for humanistic property, and therefore need not be focused on external control just like taming with a piece of itself!. In fact, the fundamental use of wearcomp may very well in personal empowerment of the individual. Smart computing will allow us to explore all potential of many modern technologies and ideas without wanting us to sacrifice freedom or privacy. Instead of current vision of smart floors, smart light switches, toilets, smart elevators, smart furniture and other smart technologies that watch us correspond to our actions, what we will witness is the emergence of smart people.
Mediated/augmented reality: - It is the ability of the computer to offer enhanced presentations of reality to the user. The application of the augmented reality lies in adding to your perceptual field. To aid in repairing a broken photocopier, an overlay of the internal structure of the photocopier can be put in the repairing person’s visual field, and thus can help him in his work.
