Europe Wearable Sensors Industry Overview
The wearable sensor market in Europe is expected to be moderately consolidated. With the ongoing innovations across Europe, companies are investing in developing wireless and wearable technologies that can be integrated into clinical systems, manufacturing facilities, consumer electronics or have military applications. Such initiatives are expected to increase the demand for the sensors during the forecast period.
For instance, 8sense is a wearable start-up from Germany that makes the world's first smart back sensor with a virtual coach. The 8sense system regularly gives feedback on the user's posture, combining position and movement analysis with real-time interaction and training. Designed to enhance and protect health and productivity, this attachable coach helps to sit more actively and informs about actual fitness levels in the office.
