Developers are provided with dedicated SDKs. This, in turn, can help advance personal health care to a new level, where IoT predictive algorithms can inform the user about emerging health issues in advance. As a result, the wearable can act as an additional endpoint in an Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem.
Many wearables also have communication interfaces, so sensor data can be easily transmitted to custom or dedicated cloud services (such as Microsoft Health) for storage or advanced processing. These wearables are equipped with various sensors, which monitor wearer’s health parameters in real time. Small wearable devices like personal activity trackers and smart watches (such as Microsoft Band, Android Wear or Apple Watch) are becoming more and more popular.
