 WHAT IS WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY ?

• Wearable technology (also called wearable gadgets) is a

category of technology devices that can be worn by a
consumer and often include tracking information related
to health and fitness. Other wearable tech gadgets
include devices that have small motion sensors to take
photos and sync with your mobile devices
 The Man behind wearable tech
• Took off in 1981 when Steve Mann invented the
6502-based Multimedia computer that could be
worn as a backpack and had photo, video text
capabilities
 IMPORTANCE OF WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY

•Wearables are
compact
•Smart
•High
operational
efficiencies
•Ubiquitous
connectivity
 DESIGN ELEMENTS OF WEARABLE
TECHNOLOGY

HUMAN CENTERED DESIGN

This practice is critical to the success of wearable devices—
design thinking must be embedded in disruptive strategy and
innovation, with a focus on optimizing the customer
experience.

CONSISTENCY OF DATA
The data from the wearable experience will need to be integrated more
broadly in an interoperable ecosystem, rather than acting standalone.
USES OF WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY
HEALTH CARE
• Measures parameters like heart rate,
body temperature etc
• Improves medical diagnosis
• Health care costs reduced

GOOGLE GLASS
Google Glass is Google's wearable computer that a person wears like a
regular pair of prescription glasses. Google Glass is best described as
an evolution of the smart phone — a way to freely access data
without needing to look at a handheld device.
