Devices that can be carried in a pocket or a bag such as certain smartphones who come quipped with the same features may or may not be qualified as “Wearable Devices”.
Factors such as rising prevalence in chronic diseases, rising mortality rates, increase in lifestyle-associated disorders and rise in demand for remote-patient monitoring will drive the Wearable Device Market. However, factors such as data hacking and theft coupled with rising privacy and security issues will hinder the growth of the market to a certain extend.
