Using wearable computing solutions in real-world applications

In this paper we report on the wearIT@work project. With the wearIT@work project the European Commission and 42 partners from 16 countries invested into a new technology empowering mobile workers. The first 42 months of this project are over and industrial demonstrators, evaluations and results and an exploitation strategy are available. Beside the four application domains of maintenance, production, healthcare and emergency response further domains like cultural heritage, a rural living lab for the prevention of environmental disasters and eInclusion are first extensions to new application domains. In this paper based on the results of the third development cycle of the project results and an approach of the exploitation strategy are presented.
