“…As shown in Figure 1, the authors literally brought sensing into the human body, aiming for robust and reliable recording of relevant biosignals, with potential applications to direct health monitoring but also to implicit interaction. Fang et al 2 presented FLECTILE, an approach to produce three-dimensional-printable soft actuators that can be used for a wide range of wearable computing scenarios with potential to direct interaction, for example, in clothes. R€ oddiger et al 3 explored in detail and systematically the new field of "earable" computing in which sensing and computing platforms are integrated into platforms that are worn around or in the ear.…”

“…Representing the best breakthrough sensing platform that is expect to support multiple new wearable applications in the future, the first award went to Likun Fang, Tobias R€ oddiger, Hongye Sun, Norbert Willenbacher, and Michael Beigl for their paper "FLECTILE: 3D-Printable Soft Actuators for Wearable Computing." 2 Representing the best example of a well-tested population-specific wearable application, the second best note award went to Navid Amini, Jung S. Lim, Farnaz Mohammadi, Clinton Thodos, Benjamin Braun, Hassan Ghasemzadeh, Melissa W. Chun, and Kouros Nouri-Mahdavi for their paper "Design and Evaluation of a Wearable Assistive Technology for Hemianopic Stroke Patients." 18 ISWC 2020 features short contributions of wearable computing (briefs and notes).…”
