Book synopsis

ProgrammingGuide for Wearable Computing: Architecture, Algorithm and Examples gives expertise in proven techniques for writing the front end,middleware and back end software for the wearable computing ecosystem. Sample projects and the available code librariesare explained in detail to illustrate how the innovative newapplications can be built from the available devices, libraries andinfrastructure already present in the industry. §Wearable computingis the emerging computer solution market segment where the devices are verysmall in size, ultra-low in power consumption and fashionable in design, sothat they can be worn by people on the go constantly and provide all kinds ofsmart assistance to the user beyond what the mobile phones can do today. GOOGLE glass, Apple iWatch and Sony SmartWatchare just three of the examples available today. More devices and back endservices will be emerging in the next few years. § ProgrammingGuide for Wearable Computing starts from an overview of the devices and libraryinfrastructures available, with text aimed both for technologists new to the business, as wellas new-to-topic, experienced market players.§Then the book illustrates a sample architecture based onwhich different developers can coordinate all the components in the ecosystemthat are vendor-neutral and device-neutral, but can be tested using readilyavailable sample equipment. §Based on this accessible architecture, sample projects are expanded onthe front-end components, middleware components, and the back-endcomponents, so that the reader receives a concise but comprehensive introduction to wearable-device development.§Acomprehensive list of references is given, providing next steps on the path to learning in this emerging and highly visible new field.§
