Already there has been a first wave of conventional wearable technology, notably a big market for electronics on the ear and wrist. The second wave is just beginning. It consists of web-connected and advanced technology watches, glasses, headsets, smart skin patches, virtual reality headsets etc. A third wave is planned involving e-fibers in e-textiles.
This webinar will cover some of the following research from our report “Wearable Technology 2014-2024: Technologies, Markets, Forecasts“:
• Conventional electronic wearables such as wristwatches already a large market: lesson on what gets commoditised.
• Why the new market is growing fast. Warning signs of excessive exhuberance.
• Opportunities for large and small businesses.
• Results of IDTechEx assessment of 550 manufacturers.
• Focus of work on e-fibers.
• Forecasts for all wearable electronics. Best sectors.
We will be hosting the same webinar twice in one day, so please join whichever session is the most convenient for you.
