Wearable Sensor Market Dynamics

Increasing Awareness about health and fitness and rising adoption of smart wearable devices are some of the major factors driving the growth of the global wearable sensor market in wearable devices. Daily Physical activity is an important factor in mental fitness and disease prevention, and also linked with many chronic diseases and their risk factors, like, cardiovascular disease, type II diabetes, certain cancers, injury from daily work and chores, high blood pressure, and high blood cholesterol. For example; according to World Health Organization; around 85% were people death are caused by due to heart attack and stroke as well as 17.9 million people died from cardiovascular diseases in 2019. Whereas, over-exercising has created risks related to health to avoid this over excising the number of companies launched number of wearable devices which are inserted with the various sensors. And, the number of wearable devices are added features like heart rate counter which indirectly help into the healthy heart. These wearable devices are used for tracking information on a real-time basis. They have motion sensors that take the snapshot of your day-to-day activity and sync them with mobile devices or laptop computers.

In addition, growing adoption of smart wearable devices is one of the major factors driving the growth of the global wearable sensor market in wearable devices. In the last few years, people are more aware of connected devices and turning towards internet adoption. Due to the increasing penetration of the internet and social media, the demand for wearable devices demand is rising. Additionally, several companies are investing in the new wearable sensors. These sensors are growingly sued into the textiles and clothing to monitor the health and wellbeing of the patients and send back information to the hub station in real-time. For the last few years in the market number of startups set to enter the market. Moreover, nowadays some wearable devices are high in demand like smartwatches, fitness trackers, head-mounted displays, sports watches, smart clothing. For example; about one in three Americans at least tried digital health products such as a Fitbit or smartwatch (34%) or have tracked their health statistics on a phone or tablet app (32%).

However, stringent rules and regulations and health concerns may restrict the market growth. Despite increasing research and development activities to develop more innovative product offerings may create more opportunities for the further growth of the market.
