Average of binary vectors?

Maybe this is a bit off-topic but thought that someone in this group might
have experince with bit patterns.

Assume that I have N binary vectors (bit patterns) with length 192. How do I
find the "average" binary vector? Do I just add the binary vectors and
divide through with N? This would work for real vectors but does it also
apply to binary vectors?

And is it possible to measure the distance between to binary vectors, for
reals the euclidean distance could be used but does it make sense to talk
about euclidean distance between binary vectors?
