Where is wearable 
technology going? 
Growth opportunities in wearable technology are attracting new market entrants to an old industry (see right). 
But existing businesses and consumers are already discarding some products.

Wi-Fi backscatter,

of Washington, runs 
battery-free devices on 
energy harnessed from 
existing radio, TV and 
wireless signals

BP is issuing FitBit

Salesforce offers a 
'developer pack' to assist 
companies create apps 
that engage with customers 
via wearable devices 
Start-up TicTrac provides 
a single platform for 
syncing, tracking and 
anlysing all personal data 
from multiple devices 
Both Google Glass and the Apple 
Watch must be recharged every 
12 hours. For the sector to 
really take off, a new 
source of power 
is needed. 
Lithium-ion batteries 
found in wearable 
technology devices have 
been on sale since 1991. 
Performance has gradually 
improved but it may now be 
reaching its practical limit 
claim researchers at the 
University of California, 
Berkeley 
“The sector is shifting beyond external 
wearables like wristbands or clip-on devices to 
‘body-adapted’ electronics that further push the 
ever-shifting boundary between humans and 
technology.” 
World Economic Forum, Top 10 Emerging Technologies 2014 
Scientists 
are looking beyond the 
battery. Technology is being 
developed so that devices 
can "run" off their 
surroundings
