Market Overview:
The global wearable tech devices market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 16.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for fitness and wellness applications, medical and healthcare applications, infotainment and entertainment applications, and other applications. Among all types of wearable tech devices, smartwatches are expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period. This is due to their growing popularity among consumers for various purposes such as health & fitness tracking, notifications & alerts, music playback control, etc.
Product Definition:
Wearable tech devices are electronic gadgets that can be worn on the body. They are often used to track fitness data or monitor health conditions.
Smartwatches:
Smartwatches are wearable devices that can perform multiple tasks apart from just showing the time. They can be used to pay bills, make calls, receive and send messages using a variety of applications. The smartwatch is also considered as an extension to one’s smartphone and acts as a companion device for many of the apps available on Google Play Store or Apple App Store.
Smart Glasses:
Smart Glasses are wearable technology devices that provide users with enhanced vision. They work on the principle of near-infrared LED and a camera mounted on the frame of eyeglasses. The device enhances user’s peripheral vision, which in turn increases their accuracy while performing any task. It also helps them to see clearly during night time as well as in low light conditions.
Application Insights:
The fitness and wellness segment dominated the global wearable tech devices market in 2017, accounting for a revenue share of over 40%. The increasing use of wearable devices for monitoring physical activity, calorie burnt, distance covered and sleep patterns among others is expected to drive the demand. Furthermore Wearable technology helps in weight loss programs by encouraging users to walk more. Increasingly popular fitness tracking apps such as Fitbit OS, Garmin Connected Fitness & Health Devices enable users to keep a tab on their health and fitness with the help of smartphone applications.
Medical & healthcare was another prominent application segment that accounted for a significant share in 2017 owing to rising adoption of wearable technologies such as smartwatches and smart glasses that are primarily used by medical professionals or patients for accessing information regarding diseases or treatments from remote locations.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global wearable tech devices market in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its position during the forecast period. This can be attributed to increasing investments by key players in developing smart wearable tech devices and related technologies for use in this region. For instance, Google has been working on Glass since 2014, when it was first introduced as a prototype device. It was later re-launched as a product under the brand name ‘Google Glass’ with several improvements made to it since its original launch four years ago (Glass Explorer Program).
Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing development of smart wearable tech devices and related technologies such as augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR). Increasing penetration of smartphones coupled with rising demand for mobile internet access has led industry participants to develop new ways through which these gadgets can be worn around users’ bodies without being noticed or detracting from their normal appearance or functionality.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for wearable devices from the healthcare sector as they help in tracking and monitoring patients’ health conditions.
- Growing popularity of fitness trackers and smart watches among consumers due to their features such as calorie counting, heart rate monitoring, etc.
- Proliferation of affordable wearable devices especially in developing countries owing to the increasing disposable income of consumers there.
- Rising demand for smart glasses and augmented reality headsets from businesses for various applications such as training, marketing, etc.
