Abstract
• The research focused on rapid growth in wearable
technology.
• To initiate the research, a preliminary search was done on
the internet to highlight trends
• Interviews were then conducted to gather primary
information from experts
• A deep analysis of material to collect detailed information
followed and results were summarized
• The research revealed tremendous progress in the wearable
technology
• Most innovations targeted to collect heart information to
determine heart performance during various activities.

Introduction
• There has been rapid technology across all aspects of
life.
• Many devices that could ease heart problems have
been developed but are less known
• This research explores some of these wearable
technology development
• Innovations in wearable technology have targeted
areas such as beauty, fashion and security

Purpose
• To Investigate the advancement of the
wearable technology
• To explore technological devices developed by
these technology
• To promote use of wearable technology to
enhance life

Methodology
• Information was collected both primary and secondary
sources.
• First, an internet search was done to identify trends in the
wearable technology
• Severable devices were shortlisted for research
• Interviews were done to selected developers of devices to get
primary data
• A second research was done by analyzing different materials
for details
• Results were summarized as findings

Findings
1. Implantables
Are divided into;
1)
2)
3)
4)

Artificial heart
Artificial heart valve
Coronary stent
Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator and
Cardiac pacemaker

Artificial heart valves.
• These valves are nonliving, nonresorbable materials
that restore properties of natural heart valves.
• They are implanted when heart valves are injured
• Injured valves may continuously degenerate leading
to serious heart problems (Henriksen et al…, 2018).
• The artificial valves restore normal functioning of the
heart.

Artificial Heart
• Artificial hearts were invented
to correct partial or complete
failure
• There are two types of
artificial hearts:
• Ventricular assist devices
(VAD)-correct partial failure
• Total artificial hearts (TAH)correct severe failure
• Both are implanted at the
chest (Heartfoundation, 2019)

Coronary Stents
• Coronary stents are metallic tubes
that corrects widened coronary
arteries
• They are expanded upon insertion to
fit the walls of the arteries (Henriksen
et al…, 2018).
• With time, tissues form around them
and thus become part of the arteries
• There are two types:
– Bare metal stents (BMS)
– Drug-eluting stents (DES)-release
regulatory medicine

Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator
• These are medical devices implanted in the abdomen or heart of
a patient suffering from arrhythmia.
• Patients diagnosed with arrhythmia have slower, faster or
irregular heartbeat or rhythm (Henriksen et al…, 2018).
• The disorder is associated with abnormalities in the heart’s
electrical system.
• The pacemaker works by sending timely prompt in the form of
electrical signals to the heart so that it can beat at the optimum
time (MedilinePlus, 2019).
• Cardiac pacemakers and ICDS can be implanted with a minor
surgery followed by brief monitoring of one to two days.
• After this monitoring to ensure that the device is operating
normally, the patient is then dismissed and is ready to resume
normal daily operations in just a few days

2. Smart clothing
• They are garments integrated with
sensors that detect and monitor health
condition.
• They are classified into;
1) Google's Project Jacquard
2) Ambiotex
3) AIO smart sleeve
4) Supa Powered Sports bra
5) Owlet Smart Sock 2 and
Hexoskin Smart.

Ambiotex
• Ambiotex is a wearable technology
designed to help athletes improve
their training.
• The ambiotex system is installed in a
device superimposed on a t-shirt that
collects signals from the body of the
wearer (Henriksen et al…, 2018).
• Ambiotex technology enables the
user to know vital details of their
performance in various activities such
as training. The information recorded
includes heart rate, stress levels and
the number of calories consumed
during the activity.

Google's Project Jacquard
• The Google’s Project Jacquard is
collaboration between Google and
Levi's to in an attempt to integrate
technology into cloth fashion.
• The two giants have partnered to
produce a denim jacket whose
microfibers have been woven with
the wearable technology (Henriksen
et al…, 2018).
• The project aims at transforming
cloths into interactive surfaces that
can help improve an individual's
lives.

Supa Powered Sports bra
• The garment is a bra that has an
embedded heart rate sensor that is
made of fabric.
• The technology uses a SUPA Reactor
that connects to a mobile application to
help the information collected for the
user (Charara, 2017).
• The Reactor is has a heart rate sensor
in its integrated into its cylindrical
volume.
• The reactor connects to the user’s
phone through Bluetooth, and the
information it delivers is visible in a
mobile application upon installation.

AIO smart sleeve
• AIO Smart Sleeve
monitors heart's
electrical performance
• It also alerts user upon
detecting heart
irregularities
• It includes small device
with sensors placed in
user’s forearm
• It relays data via
Bluetooth to phone for
viewing

Owlet Smart Sock 2 (OSS)
• The OSS is a sock designed for
child’s legs
• It aids in timely and efficient
monitoring of the child health
• The sock uses embedded
sensors to collect pulse signal
from the body
• It then relays information to a
base station for adult
monitoring
• It enables continuous
monitoring of child’s health
(Dangerfield et al., 2017)

3. Head mounted displays
• The head mounted displays
mount information on user’s
head
• There are two types: Virtual
Reality &Augmented Reality
• Glasstron
• Has two LCD screen that
create virtual reality and an
audio earphones to deliver
sound
• They enhance
entertainment experienc...
