CHICAGO, April 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- According to the new market research report "Wearable Technology Market by Product (Wristwear, Headwear, Footwear, Fashion & Jewelry, Bodywear), Type (Smart Textile, Non-Textile), Application (Consumer Electronics, Healthcare, Enterprise & Industrial), and Geography - Global Forecast to 2026", published by MarketsandMarkets™, the market size is projected to grow from USD 116.2 billion in 2021 to USD 265.4 billion by 2026; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 18.0% from 2021 to 2026. The key factors contributing to the growth of the wearable technology market include consumer preference for sophisticated gadgets, increasing growth prospects of next-generation displays in wearable devices, and the growing popularity of IoT and connected devices.

New application areas, such as medical surgery, are being found in wearable technology. Wearable devices are also used as internables/implantables. Internables or implantables are the advanced wearable technology used in medical applications. Internables or implantables are in the form of sensors that can be fitted into the human body to observe various health parameters.
