Wearable computers have special applications in many fields, and can be widely used in industrial, military, intelligence, news, medical, commercial, agricultural, financial and securities, emergency and disaster relief, and even daily life. Its combination with UC technology, intelligent homes, intelligent commerce, intelligent transportation, etc. will transform the future of human life into a highly digital and automated era.

1. Industry
This is one of the most promising applications, especially in outdoor, field, underwater and other special occasions, wearable computers can play a very important role.

(1) Installation and overhaul of large and complex equipment: The wearer can check the instructions, drawings and manuals online during the installation or overhaul process, and conveniently take the installation or maintenance process for remote monitoring, guidance and filing, thus ensuring correct operation. Boeing is trying to use wearable computers for aircraft installations, such as using HMD to virtually display the complex hydraulic system of aircraft and how electrical wiring is distributed throughout the fuselage, which is useful for proper and efficient system and line installation. AR and MR technologies have important and unique uses in installation and maintenance. The wearable augmented reality system can be used for aircraft installation and maintenance. It uses a high-resolution HMD with high-precision optics and head tracker to accurately overlay design drawings and engineering information in the user's "workspace".

(2) Inspection: The wearable computer can be used for inspection in a mobile environment, for example, to provide inspection mission guidance during routine inspection before the aircraft takes off; to collect multimedia information on the site during the bridge inspection and generate an inspection report. Some researchers in the United States are trying to use wearable computers for quality checks in food production. It will also play an important role in production command and dispatch for special occasions.

(3) Mining: The miner's cap is a typical wearable device that integrates the miner's lamp with the helmet. The miner's cap-type wearable computer can be used to guide workers in how to exhume and handle complex situations. The on-site mining situation can be transmitted to the dispatching room in multimedia form at any time, and the dispatching room instructions can be received at the same time. In addition, if a sensor for detecting gas is installed therein, an alarm function is provided.

(4) Field exploration: Using a wearable computer, it is convenient to call reference materials, remote communicate with experts, collect and process multimedia information on the spot, and transmit it in real time.

2. Military
This is another of the most promising applications for wearable computers. The main uses are: reconnaissance, combat command, communication, operation and maintenance of complex weapon systems, and simulation exercises. Depending on the application, the types of wearable computers are also diverse, with specialized wearable computers such as scouts, artillery, armor, infantry, logisticians, and pilots. In the future battlefield, every soldier wearing a wearable computer is a mobile point for acquiring, transmitting and processing information. Armed infantry, information armored units and informational artillery units with it can form a highly flexible battlefield distributed mobile information network. Modular, integrated infantry weapons centered on wearable computers can be combined as needed, with infrared night vision, assisted aiming, GPS, map browsing, communication and more function.

Wearable computers enhance the computing power of soldiers and combat groups, the ability to perceive the environment, the ability to effectively control resources on the battlefield, and the ability to remember and make decisions, and provide a mechanism for connecting wireless distributed data networks, soldiers create "data-richbattlefield environments" at this level. The ability to make the most of information allows soldiers to exercise, shoot, survive and collaborate better.

In short, the wearable computer will have a very important influence and effect on the soldier's combat capability, the performance of the weapon, the combat and command mode, and the formation of the future land information battlefield.

3. News interview
With wearable computers, journalists can complete multiple tasks such as interviews, filming, and communication. Journalists wearing wearable computers can see each other's vision and communicate in a multimedia way, so that they can collaborate remotely in a new way, and can easily "see and shoot" and capture some precious and special occasions in time. With special imaging technology of the wearable computer system, images with special effects can also be captured. The above functions can be achieved by the personal imaging system of Professor Mann of the University of Toronto.

4. Medical and disability help
(1) Monitoring: The wearable computer is equipped with various miniature bio-signal sensors, which is a wearable medical monitoring system, which can conveniently monitor the heart rate, blood pressure and breathing of the mobile patient, and promptly remind the patient and give guidance.

(2) Medical care: doctors, nurses and patients wear their own special wearable computers to form a dynamic network of diagnostic and monitoring information. In 1995, MediWear developed by the University of Oregon was such a system. A.P. Pentland of the United States also proposed the concept of "digital doctor" and tried to apply wearable computers to telemedicine.

(3) Disability help: Using the AR, AM and other functions of the wearable computer, it can help the memory or visually impaired, and can be used as a remote interface for people with disabilities.

5. Daily life
Wearable computers will also be used in daily life, integrating a walkman, mobile phone, video camera, digital camera, PDA, electronic tour guide, medical monitoring and other special features (MR, AR, CA and AC). It becomes new concept of personal information electronics. Daily wearable computers can bring more convenience and fun to people's daily lives. For example, the wearer can browse the Web and enjoy the Internet TV anytime and anywhere, and can adjust the feelings of reality to each other, and can remind and help each other. If the wearer is visiting a place of interest, his family can share the beauty with him via the Internet, and can talk to him and guide him to buy souvenirs. The wearable computer can also act as a remote mobile monitoring interface for monitoring home and office conditions and controlling related devices.

These are just some of the main uses of wearable computers. Currently, scientists are exploring wider range applications for wearable computers, such as navigation assistants, vehicle maintenance, space suits, flight suits, mountaineering suits, and diving suits. It is certain that with the deepening of research on wearable computer technology, various new-purpose products will continue to emerge, and its application fields will continue to expand.
