Wearable Tech Value Chain

11.
A Wearable starts to act as a concierge for
your connected life: accessing a consolidated
view of who you are, your preferences and
shopping history by combining with other data
sources in real time.
As this lateral connectivity increases, one of
the biggest brand challenges will be privacy:
the ability to deliver a personalized experience
to millions of users while managing their data
securely.
This means allowing users total, highly
granular control over which data they choose
to share or keep private.

Identities, Permissions and Access Control
The only way to achieve this is by
using a data platform that is
specifically architected to control
access and permissions for each
data point associated with a
Wearable Tech product owned by a
user.
Brands will need an enterprise data
platform to enable this rich world of
lateral connections by accessing
personal data, with strict access and
permission controls, to deliver
secure and innovative service
experiences to consumers at scale.

In a Wearable Tech world, companies will win by
delivering more value through a better service
experience to customers. To do this, an enterprise
Internet of Things software system must be used to:
• Manage the identities of connected objects and
devices to form meaningful lateral connections with
wearable devices.
• Interact with applications to allow all device and
wearable tech providers and brands access to API
sets and wrappers for the master data system to
enable new connected applications and experiences.
This provides a world of rich, lateral connections
where brands will be able to access personal data,
with strict access and permission controls, to deliver
enhanced service and engagement experiences.

Apple Watch
On the timekeeping front, Apple has a Complications feature.
This shows you how information such as your alarms, the
weather, and when the sun rises and sets will appear on your
Apple Watch's home screen. Each icon will appear in a
corner of the main watch face.
Apple also emphasizes how tightly the watch will integrate
with your calendar and contacts, so that it shows you context-based
reminders.
Another great feature of the Apple watch shows how you'd be
able to start reading email on your watch and then launch
your full inbox on your phone.

Hexoskin: Arctic Smart Shirt
Designed to operate in low temperatures, it’s ideal for early morning jogs
or parts of the world where there’s less sunshine.
The shirt is able to collect 42,000 different data points per minute,
covering heart rate, breathing and acceleration, and everything is synced
back to the apps available for Android, iOS and the Web.

24.
The brand’s shirt and shorts, equipped
with 18 and 12 sensors, respectively,
monitor muscle activity, heart rate, and
breathing, and do not need to be
replaced.
The “brain of the system,” a device
called Core, fits into the arm or leg of
the clothing and connects all of the
sensors, sending the information to—
yes—an app that allows you to monitor
everything in real time.

Tech Enhanced Athletic Gear
The first intelligent yoga mat.
Embedded with sensors that link
to a smartphone or tablet, guiding
users through a series of audio
and visual indicators to facilitate a
detailed practice. By targeting
three key areas –alignment,
balance, and “perfect pose” – the
mat’s creators hope to help yoga
enthusiasts improve their
technique.
E-Traces- tech-enhanced pointe shoes
by designer Lesia Trubat that are
intended to help ballerinas improve
their form. The slippers utilize Lilypad
Arduino technology to record the
pressure and movement of the
dancer’s feet before sending a signal to
an electronic device that graphs the
data accordingly.
The tech-enhanced ball that
uses integrated sensors to
provide near-instant feedback
on speed, spin, trajectory, and
strike point, helping players
identify areas of improvement
with regard to power, bend, and
knuckle ball kicks.

you can’t snap your own photo and
when a wearable helmet camera won’t
do the job.
