Abstract:
1. A method in a wearable computer for providing information about a current state of a predefined group having multiple distributed members, the current state modeled with multiple state attributes that each represent an aspect of the current state, the modeling of the current state of the group using information from multiple remote characterization systems that each model a current state of one of the members of the group and that each include modules to supply values related to the current state of that one group member, the method comprising: receiving an indication of one of the multiple state attributes that model the current state of the predefined group; determining multiple of the members of the group that have current states that are related to the current state aspect represented by the indicated one state attribute; for each of the determined group members, identifying the characterization system that models the current state of that group member; repeatedly modeling a changing current state of the predefined group, by providing an indication of one or more of the generated current values of the indicated one state attribute so as to provide information about the modeled current state of the group.
