Now it seems that in the entire field of wearable devices, the idea is not a difficult thing, but the limitations of this kind of technology is actually limited raw materials, equipment and technology to form, in particular, many novel ideas also need better technology to implementation.
But now in the technology sector has been a lot of new technology allows these ideas gradually transformed into reality, as we continue to see before various new technologies, they will have a revolutionary impact on the future of wearable devices.
Flexible displays
In the field of smart phones, the display device is always one of the main factors restricting the development of smart phones, after all, in the current smart phone, the display hardware is actually the largest in the consumer experience plays an important role. So many smart phone manufacturers a big fuss on the phone screen constantly compete, is not surprising.
However, in the wearable device, the display device is also high requirements. Due to construction of the human body, how wearable device better fit aspects of human body is also a need to explore. After all, although the volume of smart watches and smart wristband not with, but to fit our wrist, is not a simple matter. Even if the material re-wearable device soft comfortable again, the display is a hard and flat, can not seem to bring the best experience.
While smartphone makers have begun to use a small range of flexible displays, but in contrast, is a wearable device arena they play a greater role. Compared with the monotony of the phone, and wearable looks for a variety of different parts of the design concept, we need to achieve flexible displays. But now, the vast majority of wearable devices on comfort and also not very good.
Flexible battery
In addition to the display, limiting the development of smart phones second major factor is the battery. And screen, as if the battery can also be designed according to the needs of the changing shape and they can make wearable devices become more comfortable. Of course, Samsung has now begun research in this area.
Solar energy, kinetic energy charging
In addition to the appearance and size of the battery problem, there is the use of time is too short to bring a lot of the same limitations. Wearable devices feature increasing even many of us have never imagined the new features, but the battery never seems to have no progress. But we are trying to track the activities of our day by a smart watch, even when you sleep at night sleep tracking, so you can not plug in the data cable to charge it, then all of this is pointless.
It seems that manufacturers are currently looking into a better way of charging, such as solar charging is a good method, after all, compared with the smartphone, wearable devices a greater chance of exposure to the sun; the other is using the energy generated by human activity itself wearable device for charging, but also a very good way, even through the absorption of the human body surface pores, skin temperature to transform the energy, we have seen a lot of reports.
Material sensor
Wearable device has covered the clothing sector, but this seems to be a lightweight fabric wearable device is a troublesome thing. A variety of related products currently on the market, according to the wearer to move from strength to automatically deform bionic bra can reflect body heat to keep warm and allow users to have covered nanowires clothes.
If the various sensors built into our preaching the fabric of clothing, then you can have played the role of track at any time, rather than all the time with a strap on the wrist. And clothing manufacturers even before the factory will be built-in sensor directly into the fabric, it is also easier for consumers to use. But for now, this process is still very long.
Graphene
Every so often, we are able to see the news about graphene technology. This magical moment there are material changes in the likelihood of our lives. Graphene is a nano-material, a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal made, it is the study of the display, the battery is the preferred material researchers even bionic implant in. It is very soft, transparent, harder than steel and more conductive than silicon. This ultra-thin material of a single atom as mentioned above can be embedded directly onto the garment, completely affect the apparel industry.
3D printing technology
3D printing technology has also produced a wearable device for significant impact, earplugs, artificial limbs, all kinds of strange wearable devices can become the target of 3D printing technology to produce, as long as there are 3D scanners and 3D printers, and even ordinary people have may be manufactured in a home of their own wearable devices.
