Abstract.

Typical usage scenarios for wearable computers are support of users doing a certain task, e.g. aircraft repair or military applications. If the user is moving while using the wearable some restriction for the user interface apply. In this paper we present some of these restrictions and suggest a wearable user interface taking these findings into account.
