Wearable Technology Rises Abruptly After Smart Clothes Came in Fashion
Europe wearable technology market was valued at USD 308.69 million in
2013, growing at a CAGR of 42.1% from 2014 to 2019. Wearable
technology market is a niche market with current domination of a few
players. As the technology is new and there are few players, the
prices of the products are high. However, the applications of
wearable devices are currently spanning across sectors such as
fitness and wellness, infotainment, healthcare and medical and
industrial and military. Additionally, the applications of these new
technology products are expected to increase with further development
in the devices, over the forecast period.
The wearable technology market is segmented by application into
fitness and wellness, infotainment, healthcare and medical, and
industrial and military. Various products such as smart clothing and
smart sports glasses, activity monitors, sleep sensors, smart
watches, augmented reality headsets, and monitors in the wearable
technology market are further included under these applications.
These are further segmented into products with several features. For
example, outdoor activity watches have been segmented into watches
with altimeter, barometer and compass. Other products have been
further segmented and covered in the report. Among these, the fitness
and wellness segment accounted for the highest market share in 2012
and is expected to maintain its position throughout the forecast
period due to rising adoption of wearable technology products.

Germany acquired the largest market for wearable technologies with a
share of 32% in 2012. Technological innovations presented through
various conferences on wearable technologies have created awareness
and increased its adoption in the country. An example of such
conference is Wearable Technology Conference (WTC) in Germany
conducted by Wearable Technologies Service GmbH, a key player in the
European market. In addition, developments are taking place in the
field of self powering wearable devices in the country.
A large number of developments have been taking place in the wearable
technology market in UK. In 2014, Wearable Technology Show was held
in London which showcased innovative products in wearable technology.
Moreover, the UK show also saw an alternative to Google glass,
Optinvent Ora. These augmented reality glasses put a see through
screen which is three times larger than the Google Glass. Active
developments are also taking place in the field of smart clothing. A
UK based textile firm Intelligent Textiles develops electrically
active woven fabrics for commercial products ranging from body armor
to heated bedding and garments connected to iPods. Owing to all these
technological developments and new product launches, the demand for
wearable technology is expected to rise in UK in the coming years and
thus the region is analyzed to grow at a CAGR of 41.8% over the
forecast period.

Scandinavian region include three countries namely Denmark, Norway
and Sweden. Wearable technology market players in these countries are
involved in the development of new wearable products through
technical innovations. In Sweden, scientists are developing ways to
power wearable devices through blood. These devices will use
naturally occurring processes in human body to generate electricity.
The developments in Denmark and Sweden are steady however; they are
expected to increase with the entry of key players in these counties.
Thus, the country is analyzed to witness a CAGR of 43.1% over the
forecast period of 2014 to 2019.
