This paper describes work in progress on wearable computing configurations which provide audio and visual output based on the position and orientation of the user. We introduce the ?eSleeve? - a wearable wrist computer with position and heading sensors combined with a user interface employing speech recognition and a small display.

Applications described include searching a database of locations, and implementing a minimal augmented reality system. The effectiveness of different approaches at conveying location based information is discussed and we also describe our continuing research into position based audio and visual interfaces.

Index Terms:
