Xiaomi Announced the Release of Smart Shoes in Association with Amazfit
In May 20219, Xiaomi and Amazfit announced the release of smart shoes. One of the factors that will probably open up opportunities for market players in the upcoming years is the focus on China by businesses around the world.
Increased Demand for Consumer Electronics to Drive Market Growth
Consumer good end users include smart watches, bands, clothing, and patches with embedded sensors, small portable devices, and mobile applications. Consumer applications for wearable sensors have increased due to rising consumer electronics spending, growing urbanization, and consumers' improving lifestyles, which have increased public awareness of health and safety. For instance, Nike, one of the market leaders in the fitness tracker industry, incorporates the most recent innovations into its manufacturing procedures and products.
Hardware and Software-Related Technical Problems to Limit the Market Growth
Like many new technologies integrated into one system, wearable gadgets have hardware and software performance issues that may limit their general adoption. Users frequently struggle with waterproofing since moisture from sweat or laundry can damage wearable gadgets. Due to their diminutive size, the devices' screens and displays might be modest, and their power supplies might be limited. Thus, the technological complexity of the hardware and software in wearable devices is a substantial barrier to the market expansion for wearable sensors.
Major Players Develop Acquisition Plans to Boost Brand Image
The leading businesses in the wearable sensors market plan acquisitions to improve their brand recognition globally. For instance, in January 2021, the Libre 3 System, a glucose monitoring device that can be used for up to 14 days, was on display by Abbott Laboratories. In 2021, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved Ava AG's wearable fertility tracker for women.
