Technavio highlights augmented growth of IoT as one of the key drivers in the market
The growing need to remain connected has led to an increase in demand for more connected products. IoT is one such avenue that captures data from the surrounding stimuli and ensures that various products are connected. IoT and smart products have created revolutionizing expectations about data and connectivity while opening new channels of business value. One such channel is the creation of industrial wearables. Connected devices such as smart glasses, wrist computers, ring scanners, and wearable scanners are types of industrial wearables that are used by industrial workers across various end-user industries.
Connectivity costs and embedded sensors no longer deter companies from adopting the smart technology as the prices of hardware and electronics are falling in the global market. Connectivity solutions such as Wi-Fi, mobile networks, and broadband communication are ubiquitous and capable of supporting large volumes of IoT connectivity at a little incremental cost to companies and consumers.
According to a senior analyst at Technavio, “By promising data and by providing better safety and long-term cost savings through active prevention of accidents, a large number of companies are adopting sensors and IoT connectivity to yield greater value. Though these products measure and react, they ultimately protect the individual and prevent health issues and tragic situations in a more broader sense.”
The growth of the IoT market is creating opportunities for the integration of electronics and sensors in various products. Industrial wearable devices are one such channel of integration of sensors and technology, used to increase efficiency and productivity in industrial processes.
