Abstract

Wearable Technologies represent an emerging theme. Probably the next emerging market where companies will focus. These devices are replacing entire categories of electronic objects in everyday life and affect the way we live, work and socialize. Among the many applications available, the author limits attention to the field of the smart video cameras. This chapter examines some of the most interesting applications of wearable cameras, with special reference to the Italian situation. In particular, the text traces a summary of the main applications in sports, spying, police, army, education, health, disabilities, and lifelogging. A part is devoted to “wearable extensions” and the concept of augmented reality.
