A few years ago, not many people knew what it means for us to wearable devices, but in 2015, wearable devices are everywhere. Regardless of whether you are paying attention to this field, I believe you must have heard of products such as smart watches and Google glasses, and some people even have one or the same.

Recently, the number of smart watches and smart wristbands has exceeded our imagination, but most of the products that appeared in 2014 are not too beautiful, and the square design does not seem to have any beauty. The appearance of round smart watches like ASUS ZenWatch, Moto 360, LG G Watch R, etc., indicates that products in this field will become more and more fashionable. The Apple Watch smartwatch, which Apple is about to officially unveil, is also beginning to ignite the flame of competition, and the products of the entire industry will become more and more beautiful. This year, even very beautiful and fashionable products have been created for female users.

At the same time, the fitness content of fitness tracking devices is getting higher and higher, which is also due to the fact that the price of various components such as heart rate sensors is getting cheaper and more accurate.

However, wrist-worn devices and smart glasses are not the only product types we are looking forward to in 2014, and smart jewelry and smart clothing are also emerging. Even many high-end fashion companies have joined the ranks and want to join in the fun.

Regardless of your support or suspicion, the great development of wearable devices has become a trend, and will become ubiquitous and practical like a smartphone. So in 2015, wearables will also usher in five trends, and here we can take a look.

Glasses are smarter than smart

Smart glasses

Google Glass is almost disgusted by every bar customer and non-technical enthusiast in San Francisco, but it is undeniable that it is Google's search giant that has started the trend of smart glasses. Although Google has faced difficulties in the field of smart glasses, this has not prevented other technology companies from entering the field. Many manufacturers, including Sony and Vuzix, have launched or are developing their own smart glasses.

Although these smart glasses don't look very refined at present, at least the design has already made a lot of progress. Google Glass currently offers an extra range of stylish frames to choose from and even collaborates with the famous fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg. In addition, Jins Meme from Japan has introduced a product that is no different in appearance from ordinary glasses, and also has very advanced features. Jins Meme smart glasses can even monitor your attention at any time to prevent danger from falling asleep while driving. The glasses will be officially unveiled at CES 2015.

We hope to have smart eyewear products that are as attractive and attractive as Jins Meme in the future.

Technology companies have launched smart jewelry

After the wearable devices began to show explosive growth, a large number of small crowdfunding projects began to appear on Indiegogo and Kickstarter, all about jewelry products. For example, Ringly, Mota SmartRing and Cuff have all succeeded in crowdfunding, which proves that perhaps female users are not interested in many clunky smart watches, but if you change into beautiful jewelry, it is another matter.

Recently, even Intel joined this wave and launched the MICA smart bracelet in cooperation with Opening Ceremony. This bracelet has a sleek look, with a snakeskin version and even a gemstone, as well as a number of smart watch features.

With the addition of Intel, other well-known technology companies are likely to also be involved in smart jewelry. Even if they don't do that, small companies such as Ringly, Mota, and Cuff will be able to expand the smart jewellery market next year.

Built-in sensor in the garment

Once upon a time, smart clothing was actually a very small group of people relying on technology sports equipment. But in addition to OMsignal, HexoSkin and Sensoria launched smart sweatshirts, sports underwear and other technology sports equipment, more companies are targeting smart clothing to the general mass market.

Nowadays, 3D printing smart clothing has been unveiled, and fashion brands including Ralph Lauren and Victoria's Secret have begun to show their smart clothing in a high-profile manner. We have seen such things as changing colors through embedded LEDs to show current moods, fabrics woven into fibers, and garments that can detect current air humidity. Smart clothing will become more attractive in 2015 and will be more practical.

Know your body better

Almost all of the early fitness wristbands were not able to accurately calculate the number of steps of the user. Now the accuracy of these products has already made a qualitative leap. Even Olympic athletes and coaches began to use these products in training to improve themselves. The level of exercise. These advances have benefited from improvements in sensors, improved algorithms, and heart rate monitoring.

Intel's recently announced Basis Peak smart watch and Microsoft Band fitness wristband can provide very accurate and comprehensive fitness and health indicators, which also proves that products such as sports wristbands have entered a golden period of development. Fitbit's new products with built-in heart rate monitors will be officially launched next year, and we believe that other similar products will follow suit. In 2015, through these devices, we will know more about our bodies.

In addition, some entry-level products with only basic functions will be getting lower and lower prices, so even ordinary people can easily understand their health indicators. Sorry, it’s not so easy to eat potato chips without any fear.

More products for women

In fact, as of now, most wearable devices are targeted at men. Many companies, even taking into account the needs of women, are at most a "unisex", by the way. So far, these products have not grasped the essence, and by 2015, everything will change.

In fact, now we have seen many crowdfunding projects begin to focus on the fashion elements of the wearable device concept, and the most concerned about it will undoubtedly be the Apple Apple Watch smart watch that will be launched next spring. Since the official release of Apple Watch in September, the exposure has already earned enough attention, not only on Paris Fashion Week, but also on the cover of the Chinese version of Vogue fashion magazine in November, and was carried out by many fashion media. Report. Therefore, other manufacturers must have noticed that Apple has targeted a female user group that is ignored by itself but is very capable of spending.

Competitors such as LG, Samsung, and Asus will increase their investment in the wearable device market in 2015, and will also introduce more beautiful wearable devices, including one or two smart watches for women.

There is no doubt that 2015 will be the year of wearable devices, and which kind of products will become the mainstream of the market, and whether the products of the manufacturers can be eaten by men and women, the good show has already begun.
