Some Examples of Wearable Devices
2) This is what differentiates Wearables from other verticals of IoT and the next Big Thing
3) Market Segmentation of Wearables
Consumer applications are the largest component of the overall market. BCC Research published the most comprehensive study on the topic, projecting the market to grow from $6 billion in 2014 to $22.1 billion in 2018. The non-consumer market accounts for the rest: $3.2 billion in 2014 and $8.1 billion in 2018.
