Abstract

Smart watches allow instant access to information; however, the visual notification is not always reachable depending on the forearm posture. Flexible and curved display technologies can enable full-wrist circumference displays that show information at the most visible positions using pose awareness.

Highlights

  • Wearables attached to a user’s body as everyday objects, like a watch, a shirt, shoes, a bracelet, and so on, allow the user to be monitored and/or informed anytime, anywhere

  • Fujinami placement of information display within the whole wrist circumference by taking into account the device posture. We believe that this approach will result in fewer interruptions to ongoing tasks. With this goal in mind, we propose here a method to identify the most visible position on the wrist from among ten candidate positions based on the forearm posture

  • The highest percentage of “4” rating, which indicates the best visible position for the users, is 48.0 %, which appears in postures 6 and 13, while the lowest percentage (14.0 %) is found in posture 17

Summary

Introduction

Wearables attached to a user’s body as everyday objects, like a watch, a shirt, shoes, a bracelet, and so on, allow the user to be monitored and/or informed anytime, anywhere. For example with vibrations, can draw the user’s attention without distracting the eye These vibrations distract the user from ongoing tasks because he/she needs to turn the watch display to his/her face to obtain information details. To overcome this limitation, flexible and curved displays have been drawing attention for using with wrist-worn devices [6, 30, 33, 39, 42]. This motivated us to investigate a method to adjust the EAI Endorsed Transactions on
