Ubiquitous smart eyewear interactions using implicit sensing and unobtrusive information output

Abstract

Premature technology, privacy, intrusiveness, power consumption, and user habits are all factors potentially contributing to the lack of social acceptance of smart glasses. After investigating the recent development of commercial smart eyewear and its related research, we propose a design space for ubiquitous smart eyewear interactions while maximising interactivity with minimal obtrusiveness. We focus on implicit and explicit interactions enabled by the combination of miniature sensor technology, low-resolution display and simplistic interaction modalities. Additionally, we are presenting example applications outlining future development directions. Finally, we aim at raising the awareness ..
