health issues such as obesity, heart attacks, asthma, and diabetes. These wearable computing
devices are used to track various health parameters such as body temperature, blood pressure
levels, and the count of blood cells, which further helps users detect, diagnose, and monitor all
health parameters by themselves. Thus, growing demand for health monitoring in turn, is
expected to propel growth of the global wearable computer devices market.
High cost and safety issues are among the factors restraining market growth
Low consumer awareness and safety concerns regarding data security are major factors
restraining growth of the wearable computing devices market. Moreover, less battery back-up
coupled with high cost of wearable devices are expected to limit growth of the market over the
forecasted period.
Global Wearable Computing Devices: Key Trends
Advancements in sensor technology, is further increasing the demand for wearable computer.
Miniature sensors based on micro- and nano-fabrication technology, are often referred to as
MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical systems) and NEMS (nano-electro-mechanical systems).
Major benefits of miniature sensors include capacity to minimize power consumption of
devices. This in turn, is influencing increasing number of manufacturers to incorporate sensors
in their wearable computer devices. For instance, in September 2014, Apple launched the Apple
Watch, which can monitor health and fitness, track the wearer’s movement and heart rate. This
watch incorporated with suite of MEMS sensors, makes it possible to deliver health data and
vital statistics to the users. This data can further feed in to Apple’s Health app of iPhone and
iPad for analysing the resultant data .These factors in turn, help boost growth of the market.

Global Wearable Computing Devices: Regional Insight
North America held a dominant position in the global wearable computing devices market in
2017, and is expected to retain its dominance throughout the forecast period (2018–2026).
Growth of the market in the region is attributed to rising incidence of chronic diseases such as
obesity, diabetic, heart disease, and arthritis. For instance, according to the National Centre for
Health’s analysis, in the U.S., 37.7% adults and 17.2% youth were suffering from obesity in 2015,
the percentage increased to 39.6% adults and 18.5% youth suffering from obesity in 2016. Thus,
growing concern among people regarding chronic diseases has increased adoption of wearable
