@purplemutantas Also, his wearable is built off of a Sony viao UX UMPC. So the computer it's self is commercial off the shelf hardware. The only thing he built was the keyboard and the vest that carries it all. The display in the video is a modified liquid image M1.
@DrakeMagnum The wearable Greg Priest Dorman has isn't any kind of a prototype. It's his every day use computer he built. Yea it's not fancy looking, but it works. I dig his homebuilt chording keyboard. I may have to make one for the wearable I am building. Which incidentally I will be using as a reading machine too.
@WizardJim It's a chording keyboard. It has 7 buttons. One for each finger and 3 for the thumb. If you google spiffchorder you can find the schematics for it.
The glove idea is clever to cut down on accidents on the road, but would you really want to be seen wearing that? It looks like something from the space age.. Maybe if it was less 'sci-fi' people would consider buying it more.
I just got a head mounted display to experiment with wearable computing. I wrote this comment from my wearable pc. It rocks
