The wristwear product segment is expected to cover the maximum size of the wearable technology market between 2016 and 2022. The factor for this growth is attributed to key industry players who are introducing products with advanced features to serve customers’ need of fitness and healthcare. Wristwear measures fitness and healthcare parameters, which includes heartrate, calories, distance travelled, and steps. All such parameters could be synchronized with a mobile to store data. Moreover, people could access the mobile through wearable devices with the help of wristwears. So considering all such developments, it is estimated that wristwear would gain the maximum size of the wearable technology market between 2016 and 2022.

In 2015, the Americas accounted for the largest share of the wearable technology market because of several factors. One of the most important factors is technological innovations and advancements, which led to the introduction of new products. The increasing demand from consumers and medical applications has also led to the growth of wearable technology market in the Americas.

Healthcare

Wearable technology plays a crucial role in remote patient monitoring. It enables continuous monitoring of the patient’s vitals and data collection, thus allowing doctors to look at data over a certain time and understand the patterns of the patient’s overall health. . The wearable device technology offers a supplementary source of information apart from the events narrated by the patient and the symptoms experienced for concluding the diagnosis of the patient. This application of wearable technology is critical when the patient is at a remote location or may not be able to directly provide information to the physician, such as in case of children, the elderly, or those battling mental health issues.

Skin patches are small adhesive devices attached to the patient’s body that detect body metrics such as heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure. Such wearable devices act as extensions of a smartphone. They gather data and transmit information wirelessly, thus making a clinician’s work more efficient and extending care outside the hospital environment.

Enterprise & Industrial Applications

Enterprise and industrial wearable devices include compact, mobile, and wireless computing systems that can be worn on the body as well as various image scanners that find applications in enterprise and industrial processes. Wearable computers, in the form of wristwear and fingerwear, are enabling devices in the logistics, packaging, and warehouse applications where they are deployed to increase workers’ mobility and productivity.
