Though called a smart ‘shirt’, it looks more like a vest than a shirt, and can be worn under normal clothing. It keeps track of heart rate, respiration rate, temperature, activity and posture.
3. The cuff that does a bit more than being just a wearable.
We all know that a cuff is an accessory. As the name suggests, it is supposed to be worn as a cuff on the arm. The use of a cuff, however, stands out as it promises to do more than just being a wearable. Whenever the wearer of the cuff is in danger, he or she can press a button-like thing on the cuff and the person who is listed as the emergency contact shall be alerted on their smart phone. The location of the cuff-wearer will be transmitted to the emergency contact via GPS. This can be helpful in the case of women and teenagers.
4. Smart watch
A smartwatch is like a smartphone on your wrist. It can receive voice commands, use applications and perform other functions. While there are plenty of smart watches in the market one of the recent ones is the Moto 360.
5. GPS watch
A GPS watch is not really a watch, but it’s a GPS receiver that is strapped onto the wrist in the way a watch is. It receives GPS signals and functions as a portable GPS without having to rely on a device such as a mobile phone. They are mostly used for sports or fitness purposes.
