Global Wearable Sensors Market Growth
Wearable sensors are electronic devices that are worn on the body or integrated into clothing or accessories to collect various types of data from the wearer's body devices. These devices track and analyse physical, chemical, and environmental parameters. They are capable of real-time information tracking and take the non-invasive approach.
The wearable sensors market demand is being driven by the rising implementation of the products in the healthcare sector and the heightened awareness about fitness among people around the world. Fitness trackers and real-time monitoring devices equipped with sensors for heart rate monitoring, step counting, and sleep tracking are being widely adopted.
Global Wearable Sensors Market Analysis
The integration of wearable sensors with artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies has ushered in a new potential for the wearable sensors industry growth. These advanced technologies enable the analysis of intricate patterns in activity data captured by wearable sensors to identify potential fall risks among elderly individuals and analyse the effectiveness of rehabilitation programmes.
The wearable sensors market dynamics and trends are growing due to ongoing advancements in sensor technologies. Innovations like miniaturisation have greatly enhanced the functionality of wearable sensors, leading to the creation of more advanced, faster, and feature-rich wearable devices.
Global Wearable Sensors Industry Outlook
According to the Government of India Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology, in India, the electronics manufacturing sector has seen substantial growth in various verticals, including wearables and hearables. In the fiscal year FY21-22, the production of wearables and hearables, this segment experienced significant growth, reaching USD 0.25 billion.
As reported by the State Council of the People’s Republic of China, in Q3 2023, China's wearable device shipments increased by 7.5% year on year, reaching 34.7 million units. Specifically, ear-worn devices saw a 9.8% rise to 19.24 million units. Smartwatches increased by 5.5% to 11.4 million units, while wristbands grew by 2.2% to 3.98 million units, further driving the wearable sensors market revenue as these devices track physical activities such as steps, distance, calories burned, and exercise performance, providing valuable insights and feedback for fitness objectives.
In Australia, in 2022, 5.6% of young people met the physical activity guidelines, more than doubling from 1.9% in 2017–18. Males aged 15–17 were more likely to meet the guidelines compared to females, with 9.9% versus 3.7%. For adults aged 18–64, 22.4% met the guidelines in 2022, up from 17.0% in 2017–18. Over half (56.4%) engaged in 30 minutes of activity on five or more days, and 26.6% performed strength or toning exercises on at least two days as reported by the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
According to the World Bank, in 2023, the population aged 65 and above has increased to 23% of the total population in Germany, 22% in France, and 24% in Italy. The ageing population boost the wearable sensor industry revenue by increasing demand for health monitoring, chronic disease management, and personalised care, driving the adoption of wearable health technologies.
Ongoing innovation and miniaturization improve sensor functionalities, resulting in more sophisticated and feature-packed wearable devices, thereby accelerating the growth of the wearable sensor industry.
