Abstract
This paper describes the wearable Remembrance Agent, a continuously running proactive memory aid that uses the physical context of a wearable computer to provide notes that might be relevant in that context. A currently running prototype is described, along with future directions for research inspired by using the prototype. 1 Introduction With computer chips getting smaller and cheaper the day will soon come when the desk-top, lap-top, and palm-top computer will all disappear into a vest pocket, wallet, shoe, or anywhere else a spare centimeter or two are available. As the price continues to plummet, these devices will enable all kinds of applications, from consumer electronics to personal communicators to field-operations support. Given that the primary use of today's palm-top computers is as day-planners, address books, and notebooks, one can expect memory aids will be an important application for wearable computers as well. Current computer-based memory aids are written to make l...
