  This article introduces our vision for a new interaction paradigm: Heads-Up
Computing, a concept involving the provision of seamless computing support for
daily activities. Its synergistic and user-centric approach frees humans from
common constraints caused by existing interactions (e.g. smartphone zombies),
made possible by matching input and output channels between the device and
human. Wearable embodiments include a head- and hand-piece device which enable
multimodal interactions and complementary motor movements. While flavors of
this vision have been proposed in many research fields and in broader visions
like UbiComp, Heads-Up Computing offers a holistic vision focused on the scope
of the immediate perceptual space that matters most to users, and establishes
design constraints and principles to facilitate the innovation process. We
illustrate a day in the life with Heads-Up to inspire future applications and
services that can significantly impact the way we live, learn, work, and play.
