A new wearable computing era featuring devices such as Google Glass, smartwatches, and digital contact lenses is almost upon us, bringing with it usability issues that conventional human computer interaction (HCI) modalities cannot resolve. Brain computer interface (BCI) technology is also rapidly advancing and is now at a point where noninvasive BCIs are being used in games and in healthcare. Thought control of wearable devices is an intriguing vision and would facilitate more intuitive HCI; however, to achieve even a modicum of control BCI currently requires massive processing power that is not available on mobile devices. Cloud computing is a maturing paradigm in which elastic computing power is provided on demand over networks. In this paper, we review the three technologies and take a look at possible ways cloud computing can be harnessed to provide the computational power needed to facilitate practical thought control of next-generation wearable computing devices.
