Beyond Smartwatches: What’s Next in Wearable Innovation?
Wearing your smartwatch to sleep and lathering it under the shower has become tedious. So has glancing at it to check the time and candies. And who can be bothered wading through all the notifications? Is that an alert from my wife? Or from my mortgage broker? No thank you. I want something fresh. I want something with that unmistakable internet of things zing! Are you excited yet? Because we haven’t even got to the good stuff.
Imagine clothing that’s actually a complex system of sensors, actuators and microchips woven directly into the strands. Sounds like sci-fi, doesn’t it? Think again. It’s the next step in wearable innovation — and you’ll want to be sitting front row when it comes.
Except that, at that point, you’d most likely be thinking: ‘But isn’t that what smartwatches are? Isn’t our wearable-tech future already here?’ To which the answer is that, no, smartwatches are neat little gadgets around your wrist; they tell the time, they can track your fitness stats, and they serve up your notifications. They are nothing.
That’s where the second wave of wearable innovation comes in: ‘smart clothing’. It looks like fashion but adds smarts, doing everything from adjusting the temperature of your jacket to suit the weather, and tracking your gait and stride to offer advice on how to stand up straighter.
But it doesn’t stop there. We’re also seeing incredible advancements in wearable health tech. Forget bulky fitness trackers that you have to remember to charge every night. The future belongs to discreet, non-invasive devices that can monitor your vitals in real time, giving you invaluable insights into your health without disrupting your daily routine.
And let’s not forget about augmented reality (AR) glasses. Remember Google Glass? Well, think of that, but sleeker, more stylish, and useful. With AR glasses, you can overlay digital information onto the physical world around you, turning every street into a personalized navigation system or every museum into an interactive learning experience.
So, how do you get your hands on these futuristic gadgets? Well, the good news is that many of them are already in development or available for purchase. From smart clothing startups to tech giants like Apple and Google, the race to revolutionize wearable tech is well underway.
