Wearable computing: a first step toward personal imaging
Abstract
Miniaturization of components has enabled systems that are wearable and nearly invisible, so that individuals can move about and interact freely, supported by their personal information domain. To explore such new concepts in imaging and lighting, I designed and built the wearable personal imaging system. My invention differed from present-day laptops and personal digital assistants in that I could keep an eye on the screen while walking around and doing other things. Just as computers have come to serve as organizational and personal information repositories, computer clothing, when worn regularly, could become a visual memory prosthetic and perception enhancer.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
