Abstract
The Internet undergoes a fundamental transformation as billions of connected “things” surround us and embed themselves into the fabric of our everyday lives. However, this is only the beginning of true convergence between the realm of humans and that of machines, which materializes with the advent of connected machines worn by humans, or wearables. The resulting shift from the Internet of Things to the Internet of Wearable Things (IoWT) brings along a truly personalized user experience by capitalizing on the rich contextual information, which wearables produce more than any other today’s technology. In this paper, after reviewing the relevant contemporary background, we propose efficient means for the delegation of use applicable to a wearable device. Our efficient solutions facilitate contexts where one can us this device to control the cursor of a computer device without the presence of a physical mouse.
