Wearable is the gadget that can be worn down. This gadget usually has smart sensors which are connected to the internet/ network for data exchange. In 2000, the first Bluetooth wearable device was sold and in 2017 first Fitbit watch was launched. The famous Google glass launched in 2013, was the first voice-enabled head mounted display which combines the uses of Augmented reality and the ability to capture images. The wearable market leveraging wearable app development technology is growing as the number of gadgets worldwide is expected to jump from 325 million in 2015 to 830 million in 2020.

 Need and Rise of Wearable Apps & Devices:

 In today’s busy world, people want to track their daily activities to improve their lives. The wearable devices can be worn on the body as implant or accessories to use the wearable apps for various functionalities. Wearables are providing many services using IoT and Machine Learning technologies. Due to IoT, these devices can exchange data between the device and network. From physical fitness to fashion Industry, the use of wearable devices and wearable apps is increasing day by day leveraging wearable applications development services.

Wearable technology today has become as popular as smartphones, mobile apps, broadband, and computing.

 Wearable devices you get in today’s Market:

Big Legends of IT market such as Amazon and Google are now providing the support for these wearable devices. The basic SDK which can be fabricated to anything new is now available from different vendors. Some of the wearable devices you might have seen around you such as Health Band, Heart Rate Monitors, Smart ECG Meter. Apple in its series of smartwatches launched Apple Watch Series 3 which has built-in cellular for data and even phone calls. The Fitbit which becoming popular day by day is also a Wearable Architecture. This simple and stylish health band can track your health in real-time.

Given the way that a little gadget might be worn on a piece of the body not ordinarily in see or effortlessly open, the conceivable outcomes for a human-machine interface (HMI) is somewhat restricted—and unquestionably do exclude a huge show or console. For the genuine gadget, these restrictions may boil down to a few lights and several little catches, or on account of a smartwatch, maybe a touch show alongside a few catches. In numerous cases, physical catches in favour of a watch can be set to various alternatives with catch blends and the present capacity showed on the screen. This still doesn’t add up to a very rich user interface. The technology uses Phone as a gateway to transmit the data and the cloud services help to achieve different goals.

 Some Challenges which you can face while developing such a product?

 - Security might cause some problems by manipulating physical hardware.

- Battery life can cause some problem when the device is measuring data from many sensors.

 Some Solutions which Let's Nurture can provide in your product lifecycle:

 - Data can be made more secure by using encrypted algorithms.

- Battery life can be improved by using deep sleep modes and low energy solutions.

- Can convert the Bluetooth solutions to a more robust solution such as Wifi-enabled or Beacon powered solution.

- Help in providing the network connected solution such as Dedicated network where data is more protected.

 What can be done with data that have been collected from wearable gadgets?

 - Data analytics (e.g can give a different set of devices such as change battery of device in 15 days).

- Predictive analysis (e.g Health Care).

- Event Triggers (e.g Turn the Geyser On when returning from the workout).

 Wearable Future:

As the IT’s Calender Gartner cycle (Hypercycle of Emerging Technologies) predicts the Wearable technologies will be at a plateau in coming years so this is the right time for DevOps to dive into this market to get maximum returns.
