For instance, synchronization of watches with smartphones is an evolving technology with a slew of novel features being incorporated into the devices; the Internet of Things (IoT) is being integrated into devices to bring sophistication to them; Smart Shirts make tracking health-related metrics seamlessly. Eye-wear or glasses have been embedded with a calling feature to expedite and ease the task of receiving the phone.
The rise of social media usage and the underlying tendency towards remaining updated with its posts is driving the demand for this market. Increasing Convenience in the handling of devices is a reason why people use wearable devices. The Global Wearable Device Market is growing due to its increasing adoption of diverse applications. The number of functions performed by smartwatches is on a rising spree with heavy investments by companies in their Research and Development projects. The development of smartwatches has brought a radical transformation in the watch industry and made wearing smartwatches a status symbol.
The growing health awareness at the global level is contributing to the market growth in the forecast period.
