These devices include headphones, wristbands, and eyeglasses, as well as smart clothing and medical devices that are not widely available, and smart organs and implantable chips that may extend human capabilities in the future. By connecting with smartphones or the cloud for data interaction, many rich functions are realized.
2. Smart Wearable Market Development
The AMC model of China's smart wearable device market given by Shenzhen Smart Wearable Industry Association shows that in 2006, smart wearable products entered the exploratory period and began to explore user needs, try product forms, and build software ecosystems.
The most sensational product of this period is Google Project Glass, the AR augmented reality glasses released by Google in 2012, followed by 2 generations of products. The futuristic design and new interactive experience instantly triggered the market, but due to the immaturity of the technology, the shortcomings of the product were gradually exposed during the subsequent use, which ultimately led to the third generation of products "difficult to produce".
In 2016, the market entered the start-up period, the main smart wearable computing system platform and big data service platform is built, based on the health of big data service products gradually mature. With the release of Apple's smartwatch AppleWatch, the product form of the square dial has created a huge difference with the traditional round watch, attracting more consumers. And with the subsequent product GPS, cellular data, and health monitoring and other functions, led to the rise of the smartwatch market.
Into the last few years, smart wearable products ushered in a period of rapid growth, in which the relatively low-tech TWS headset has become the most important point of strength, and sales have risen year after year. And with the addition of active noise cancellation and other features, they have been recognized by more people and have become the main growth rate of consumer electronics products in recent years.
Smart watches, smart bracelets, smart glasses and other categories of products also maintained the momentum of growth. Among them, the combination of smart watches/bracelets and sports health monitoring functions has formed a unique differentiation feature and become a product sought after by many young people. It is widely recognized that it will be the main development direction of the smart wearable market in the future.
3, smart wearable future
The current smart wearable products, due to the limitations of the product volume, the vast majority of products need to be connected to cell phones, PCs and other terminal equipment, so as to realize the application of various functions and data processing.
But smartwatches have the advantage of a relatively large size compared to other smart wearable products, and can carry more firmware configurations. The touch screen makes human-computer interaction more convenient and intuitive, and its wrist-worn usage is also easier to control. As smartwatch technology continues to advance, the product is moving towards standalone use.
After becoming an independent terminal product like cell phones, smartwatches may gradually develop into the center of smart wearable devices, undertaking data processing and cloud interaction of other smart wearable products, and becoming multimedia access ports, which are more convenient for users to use.
Two, smart watches may become the center of smart wearable devices
1, smart watch introduction
Smart watch is a watch with information processing capabilities, in line with the basic technical requirements of the watch. The logic of smartwatch is more inclined to cell phone, compared with the traditional watch, in addition to having the function of checking the time and date, it also has an independent operating system, data processing center, as well as a large number of sensor units, so as to realize such functions as health and exercise detection, checking and receiving information, and answering phone calls.
The current smartwatch market products can be divided into three categories based on their functional positioning, which are children's smartwatches, adult smartwatches and elderly smartwatches. According to the form of product data interaction, it can be divided into three categories: Bluetooth version, Bluetooth/WiFi version and cellular data version.

Among them, smartwatch shipments reached 115 million, accounting for about 60%. And it is predicted that by 2025, smartwatch shipments will reach 258 million units. This is still only knowable branded product shipments, the full shipments will far exceed this figure.
Currently smartwatch shipments market share Apple AppleWatch is far ahead, Huawei shipments in 2019-2020 growth rate is huge, the current sales are in the second place, Samsung, Fitbit, Huami and Garmin followed.
Smart watch industry chain and key technologies
Smart watch industry chain is similar to that of smart watches, the upstream mainly includes the main control chip, sensors and algorithms, batteries, screens, etc.; the midstream includes the industrial design and process, hardware and software solution providers; the downstream is the supplier and the terminal brand manufacturers that the consumers contact.
At the key technology level, it mainly includes R&D and design capabilities, interconnectivity and algorithms. At present, smartwatches are already very mature in heart rate and blood oxygen monitoring. Algorithms have many manufacturers continue to follow up and upgrade, and the accuracy is constantly improving. In the smart watch, cell phone APP and cloud data interaction has also been relatively perfect.
But new health monitoring functions such as ECG, temperature, blood pressure and blood glucose are still supported by only a few products, and the data is not accurate enough to analyze the changes in physical condition through fluctuations. On the other hand, there is the issue of battery life, due to the size of the watch and the limitations of the battery technology, in so many all-weather monitoring functions, can reach more than 3 days of battery life products are good.
Smart watch market opportunities
Smart watch as a fast-growing emerging market, at present, although there are already such as Apple, Huawei and other head of the enterprise has a lot of shipments, but compared to the market capacity, the future still has a very promising potential for development.
For many other new smartwatch brands, as smartwatches are still in the early stages of development, enterprises engaged in this industry chain, in addition to the head of a few other companies are basically in the same starting line, standing in the industry chain and the key technologies we mentioned above, will usher in a new opportunity for development.
On the other hand, in addition to its rich functionality, a smartwatch also has the strong decorative effect of a traditional watch. Therefore, the product appearance design and product texture is also a very important point for smartwatches, and the ability to realize a very different product appearance can also be recognized by the market.
