  • Abstract
    This paper reports on progress in the area of hardware for wearable computing. Our specific interest is in reducing conventional head-mounted display systems to eyeglass scale. We report here the successful demonstration of an ergonomic eyeglasses-based display. We present some of the general considerations in the design of such eyeglasses and briefly review our approach and initial findings.
