As technology’s space in our lives getting bigger, its size is getting smaller. So, can technology be with us from the cloths to accessories we wear? With wearable smart systems, this is now an ordinary thing.
Being one of the concepts came into our lives with Industry 4.0, wearable technology aims to make lives easier just like other smart systems. This technology being a part of digital age increasing technology’s position in our lives, is a hybrid system that includes many technologies.
One of the most common examples of wearables are digitl watches, AR(Augmented Reality) and VR(Virtual Reality) headsets, tracking devices. Brands like Apple, Samsung and Microsoft made innovative projects in order to provide technological easiness. For instance Apple Watch Series 2 is available from September 16, and in terms of pricing it unsurprisingly arrives at a variety of levels, with the cheapest model, the 38mm version.

The Apple Watch Series 2 is a high-end device – and now that it’s water-resistant, and has GPS and a bigger battery, it’s hard to believe it’s not thicker. Throughout our review there was never a suspicion that you’d be scratching this thing up, despite repeatedly picking it up and putting it down during activity. Also Google Glass offers an augmented reality experience by using visual, audio and location-based inputs to provide relevant information. For example, upon entering an airport, a user could automatically receive flight status information. Users can also control the device manually through voice commands and a touchpad located on its frame.
The Avegant Glyph is mediawear, a new category of personal entertainment technology designed with go-anywhere portability and amazingly precise video capability. Put it on, and you get the idea in seconds. It’s that intuitive. Avegant’s patented Retinal Imaging Technology uses advanced optics and an array of two million mirrors to project images directly to your eyes to recreate natural sigh. Another VR headset he Rift has a stereoscopic OLED display, 1080×1200 resolution per eye, a 90 Hz refresh rate, and 110° field of view. It has integrated headphones which provide a 3D audio effect, rotational and positional tracking. The positional tracking system, called “Constellation”, is performed by a USB stationary infrared sensor that is picking up light that is emitted by IR LEDs that are integrated into the head-mounted display.
These wearable solutions preferred mainly in security, game, health and sports segments, continues to grow just like the other new generation technologies. The implants that can be placed in body are also one of the most interesting products. Enabling continuous data tracing, these implants are placed into the body with surgery. Developed for disease like diabetes and blood pressure, this application is expected to be very dominant in medical sector. Showing many potentials already, wearables’ manufacturers include Oculus Rift, Avegant Glyph, Mira, Ear-o-Smart and Google.
