1. A wearable computing device for providing hazard warning information comprising:
- a microphone configured to detect audio data associated with a potential hazard;
a camera configured to detect image data associated with the potential hazard; and
a processor coupled to the microphone and the camera and configured to determine which of the detected audio data or the detected image data has a higher quality, and to determine whether the potential hazard presents a real hazard to a user based on the detected audio data and the detected image data such that more weight is provided to whichever of the detected audio data or the detected image data has the higher quality.

11. A wearable computing device for providing hazard warnings comprising:
-
an upper portion having a first end and a second end; a first lower portion coupled to the first end of the upper portion; a second lower portion coupled to the second end of the upper portion; at least one microphone positioned on the first lower portion, the second lower portion or the upper portion and configured to detect audio data associated with a potential hazard; a camera positioned on the first lower portion or the second lower portion and configured to detect image data associated with the potential hazard; and a processor coupled to the camera and the at least one microphone and configured to determine which of the detected audio data or the detected image data has a higher quality, and to determine whether the potential hazard presents a real hazard to a user by analyzing whichever of the detected audio data or the detected image data has the higher quality. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A method for providing hazard warnings to a user of a wearable computing device comprising:
-
detecting, by at least two microphones, audio data associated with a potential hazard and including volume information; detecting, by a camera, image data associated with the potential hazard; determining, by a processor, whether the detected audio data or the detected image data has a higher quality; and determining, by the processor, whether the potential hazard presents a real hazard to the user based on the detected audio data and the detected image data by providing more weight to whichever of the detected audio data or the detected image data has the higher quality. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
