Changes of HCI Methods towards the Development Process of Wearable Computing Solutions

Logistics is a dynamic and heterogeneous application area for wearable computing. In this paper, wearable computing technologies are examined as basis for a support system for mobile workers at an automobile terminal under the new paradigm of autonomous controlled logistics. An appropriate wearable computing system has to fulfil different system requirements with respect to the mobile work process and the bodily conditions of the user. Therefore the requirements of wearable computing systems were defined in a participatory process with the users.
