Wearable
Computing Systems
As a research unit
in a Department of Electronic, Electrical and Computer Engineering, we
have an interest in the hardware design of wearable computing systems.
Our projects employ a range of microcprocessors and microcontrollers.
For example, we have built various microcontroller-based systems with
various members of the 8-bit Microchip PIC and 16-bit Renesas (formerly Mitsubishi) M16C
processors (see here for examples).
Our high-end
x3 systems employ PC104 standard Pentium II and III processors.
Current research also
includes mid-range processors,
such as the Intel StrongARM SA1110 and XScale PXA255. The main aim
is to develop a platform that can be used for developing wearable systems.
