With an increasing demand for
specific applications and eliminating dependability on smartphones,
manufacturers aim to develop independent devices.
Wearable technology, also known as wearables, are accessories

to perform operations, such as real time data monitoring, logical calculations,
network communication, and others. It is usually used in integration with
smartphones to obtain better results. The wearable technology market will be
shaped in the future depending on how consumers use it with smartphones or adopt
it as an alternative.
