Welcome to the OWCG website!
There is no single standardization organization related to wearable
computing.
ongoing standardization is spread over a wide range
of different standardization organizations
- addressing only isolated aspects of wearable computing
- as a part of a more general technological vision
- E.g. ISO and IEEE/ACM deal with aspects of wearable computing
and are major players in a particular technology sector
focused on technological aspects
- not following a broader more systemic approach
- different workgroups or special interest groups around
- helping to realize an overall vision
OWCG
as awareness and standardization organization
- Monitoring ongoing standardization activities
- Demand driven standardization
- Facilitate the establishment of applied Wearable Computing
OWCG
motivates cooperation between different stakeholders
- Solve difficult interoperability issues in wearable computing
- Bringing technology from lab and niche to an industrial standard
Technologies used in wearable computing
will become more and more important
Knowing and influencing standards is
crucial in determining whether a technology is adopted or not
