Wearable device in a nutshell

What is wearable fashion?

Wearable fashion or wearable devices are smart electronic devices usually worn in contact with the skin. They have built-in sensors for detecting body signals. These signals are stored and then analyzed to give biofeedback to the wearer. Most wearable devices can read the heart rate, body temperature and many more vital signs to give feedback about the wearer’s health.

How does it work?

These wearable devices can monitor the changes in bodily functions. They measure and track motion, heart activity, brain activity, etc. This data is then communicated to other devices such as your mobile phone or computer regularly. This helps to free storage space in the wearable device. The most common type of wearable devices are smartwatches and they need to have a rechargeable battery and a charging mechanism.

The data you collect today will be vital for your health tomorrow!

This ability to collect and process vast amounts of data across a very large population can bring innovative changes to the field of healthcare. A miniature change in body functions measured over a long period of time can be analyzed using big data technologies and statistical methods. Analyzing this data can be used to predict the risks of getting certain diseases in the future.

This ability to collect data from hundreds of thousands of individuals of the same demographic can easily be used to predict the future health state. The more historical data you have, the more chance you have to predict and prevent any health risks.

Actionable data for a healthy happy life

The motive of wearable devices is not just to collect data. The main purpose is to analyze the collected data to give a result. This result should be of use to make decisions based on it. This is where mobile and desktop apps come in. These applications help you to visualize the data to get a detailed insight. Helps to track your progress to maintain your activity levels healthy.

Tracking, Guiding, Alarming,... and the list getting bigger

They are not just for tracking. Wearables can even help you to perform guided exercises and meditation. They can alert you when your body is experiencing abnormalities. If your heart rate is abnormal it will alert you to do a guided meditation to get it back to normal. This function can help immensely when considering group performance scenarios. Group dancers, sports teams, or solders on the battlefields can take synchronous collective actions based on predesigned guidelines.

Wearable devices come in many forms

With the advancement of technology, more usable and desirable designs have been introduced. The devices have lost their tech geeky look and sizes have become smaller and slim. The battery life has been extended for longer times, reducing the need to frequently charge.

These devices can take many forms like t-shirts, shoes, jewellery, etc. At present your smart jewellery can look bulky or geeky, but in the future, they could be weightless or without a shape. Till then let us help to style your wearable devices!
