Abstract
Wearable devices have emerged in the last years
with new applications that provide user convenience.
Healthcare, sports, safety are some examples of areas
in which wearable devices have been used. This paper
overviews wearable architectures found in the literature
and presents a novel wearable for monitoring ecological
environments. The wearable includes a Head-UP Display
(HUD) assembled with Google Cardboard API and sensors
connected to a development board. Our wearable device
provides several functionalities such as distance measurement
to objects and weather conditions monitoring. Camera
and green lasers combined with a digital image processing
algorithm are used to measure the distance to objects. We
different development boards to build the system.
