Smart Eyewear – Where & Why
Abstract:
Smart eyewear has been on the market for a number of years, but has not taken hold as expected. This talk will cover such topics as: where smart eyewear is likely to have traction (e.g. professions with a need for low touch activities), where smart eyewear is “on hold” for now in society (e.g. consumer device used on a daily basis), and what makes a good application. Additionally, this presentation will cover areas where developing with smart eyewear differs from a mobile device, which is put away when not being used, or a smart watch, that can be ignored.
