The Chirplet Transform
A generalization of the wavelet transform, useful for applications in image processing, imaging, radar, wearable radar.

The Design of a Wearable Computer
Dan Siewiorek brought wearable computing into the industrial and military world and created a well funded wearable computing research effort at CMU.

Humanistic Intelligence: WearComp as a new framework for Intelligent Signal Processing
Paper by Steve Mann published as the lead article in the proceedings of the IEEE depicting an early embodiment of Steve's WearComp invention.

Human Powered Wearable Computing
The energy consumption as it pertains to Wearable Computing is discussed in this paper. Provocative possibility of harnessing the energy expended during everyday activities in order to power up your computer is explored in detail.

Mnemologistics
Mnemologistic's is the art and science of reducing language and streamlining its logistics in order to make it more efficient. A great part of this involves an attempt to develop a comprehensive abbreviation system which leads to a better way to use a chord keyer.

Photoquantigraphy with automatic gain control
With AGC, the characteristic response function of the camera varies, making it impossible to accurately describe one image as a projective coordinate transformed version of another. Steve Mann proposes a solution to this problem.

Real-Time American Sign Language Recognition Using Desk and Wearable Computer Based Video
Two real-time hidden Markov model-based systems for recognizing sentence-level continuous American Sign Language (ASL) using a wearable computer are presented.

Visual Contextual Awareness in Wearable Computing
As processing power increases, a wearable computer can spend more time observing its user to provide serendipitous information, manage interruptions and tasks, and predict future needs without being directly commanded by the user.

Wearable Computing: A First Step Toward Personal Imaging
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.
