Much like glasses, a tie, or even a watch, the wearables are designed to be discrete and should be able to fit in like a tie with your wardrobe. A wearable computer should act as an extension to a users body or mind. these computers are designed to interact with the user based on the context of the situation at hand. Wearables have many functions like a normal computer depending on its design. They can be designed as clothing, to monitor your heart rate or even used as augmented memory, such as when you enter a room, the wearable would be able to sense who is in the room and your past history with them.
