The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from the research team said: One of the key trends for market growth will be decline in cost of smart wearable lifestyle device. A significant decline in the ASP of smart wearable devices in the developed countries has increased the adoption rate of these devices. In 2012, the ASP of most of the devices that were sampled was recorded to be $800, depending on the application. The amount has declined to $250-300 in 2016. The significant decline in the cost of wearable devices has increased the adoption rate of these devices both in developed and developing countries. Initially, the adoption of these devices was confined to developed countries because of the high cost. However, with the decline in cost, vendors have shifted their focus to developing countries to increase their revenue and market base. According to the report, growing use of smart glasses will be a key driver for market growth. Smart glasses are portable devices that provide real-time entertainment and gaming experiences to end-users. These glasses enable users to capture 3D images, stream virtual videos, and enhance their virtual gaming experience. Google Glass provides a platform for consumers to share their videos and pictures on social networking websites such as Facebook and Twitter with the help of pre-installed apps. It also provides Google maps. The adoption of smart glasses is high in North America and Western Europe. Further, the report states that smart wearable devices have design constraints, which is one of the significant challenges faced by the consumer smart wearable technology market worldwide. By using normal wearable accessories that include wristbands, watches, jewelry, and glasses, individuals make a fashion statement for their personal identity.
