摘　　要：信息技术在过去的几十年间飞速发展 ,根据摩尔定律所述 ,计算机的容量每隔 18至 2 4个月就会翻一番 ,进而实现计算能力在短期内的指数增长。可穿戴计算机 (wearablecomputer)是一种新概念的个人移动计算系统 ,应用潜力巨大 ,发展势头迅猛 ,它是伴随着计算机不断向超微型化发展应运而生的 ,也是“计算机应以人为本”这一理念的必然产物。它为计算机科学与技术提出了新的课题和挑战 ,将使人机关系发生重大变革。文中首先介绍了什么是可穿戴计算机 ,接着回顾了它的简短发展史 ,然后介绍了它的软硬件技术 。Information technology has developed rapidly in the last decades. Moore's Law states that computer capacity tends to double every 18—24 months, leading to exponential increase in computing power over brief periods of time. Wearable computer is a sort of new conceptual personal mobile computing system which has great practical potential and has been developing very rapidly. Wearable computer's emergence is due to the fact that computer has increasingly become super-micromation, and is the inevitable outcome of the concept —“computer should fit humans”. Wearable computer will lead to a great change of human—computer relationship and will put forward new issues and challenges in computer science and technology. This thesis firstly introduces what's a wearable computer, then has an overview of its brief history. The thesis also discusses the hardware and software technology of wearable computer, and in the end lists several applications of it and predicts its market prospect.
