Wearable computers come in many forms, but are generally considered to be any interactive, wearable device for augmented reality or augmented memory.

Pioneering research in this field comes from the MIT Media Lab, especially under the directon of Thad Starner and Steve Mann (independently). More information can be found on the MIT wearables page. It includes some perdy pictures and a nice case study.
