When it comes to wearable technology, there’s more to the market than Fitbits and Google Glass. There is a growing list of industrial use cases for wearables, be it in healthcare, logistics, or manufacturing. While several of these applications are gaining traction and making industrial processes easier, safer, and more efficient, others are hamstrung by network limitations, requiring either high bandwidth, low latency and jitter, or both.
As of 2019, the state of wearable technology in the industrial and enterprise world was primed for growth, with a market value of over $1.5 billion and projected increase of more than $3 billion over the following five years.
