• The Humionics Society (HS) is a working group dedicated to the discussion and advancement of Body Wearable Computer technology. Proposed activities include the publication of a journal, the organization of special interest groups, conferences, seminars and tutorials. The Society operates without any discrimination on grounds of race, religion, nationality, or political philosophy.
  
• The HS was founded in July 1997 by Troy Bentley of NASA-KSC & Ann Trausch of NASA-MSFC to provide a forum for academics, industrialists, researchers and students to share and develop their vision of body wearable computers and their applications. The HS strives to foster an active membership through which it communicates and disseminates its collective knowledge.
  
• Members of the HS are encouraged to be proactive in influencing the society's professional development, through involvement in its internal administration, publications, conferences, special interest groups and interaction and affiliation with other professional societies.
  
• By joining the HS you will become a member of one of the most forward looking societies representing the interests of a community concerned with developing technologies. The HS will provide you with information central to the evolution of body wearable computer technology as a discipline, and its practical application. Through its information dissemination activities, the HS will help you develop and maintain contact with the scientific and technological developments taking place throughout the world.
