Future of Wearable Computing:


Wearable Computers would dominate in the near future, years ago you would not have thought that you could do some of the things you can do today as computers are getting smaller and more powerful they can be integrated into virtually anything.
Now you can class your mobile phone as a mobile computer as you can get phones that can be used take photos, surf the internet, msn messenger, mp3 player, video recorder, video playback, create documents, view documents, create games and many other things mobile phones are now more powerful than computers 10 years ago, you can do most of the things on a phone that you can do on a PC. This does not mean that the mobile phone itself will be a wearable computer in the future. We believe that all electronic devices will be able to communicate with each other and recognize who you are similar to minority report where eyes are scanned to welcome a person instead of scanning your eyes it will be scanning any electronic devices that you may be carrying, this would bring in to the picture security because then if you loose a device or it is stolen then if someone finds it they may be able to find out everything about you. It could also be used to track people this could work as a good and bad thing as if the police where tracking someone it could help but on the other hand if a stalker/murderer was tracking movements to find out when he can strike it could make it easier.

Below is a video of how wearable computers can be implemented in the future:
