Wearable tech military classifications

Based on the type of product, the market for military portable sensors has been divided into sensors based on military clothing and sensors based on military devices. The sensors based on military devices consist of goggles, watches, key chains and bracelets enabled for health tracking. The segment with the highest participation of military portable sensors is that of sensors based on military devices. These devices consist of global positioning systems to track and display the position of personnel along with physical structures on the field. Also, war-based devices helped track soldiers ’real-time data.

Portable sensor market According to application, the watch applications sector is expected to maintain a large market during the forecast:

Portable devices offer a wide range of functionality, from simple functions like heart rate monitoring and calorie burning to advanced smart functions like giving data on smell, taste, hearing, and vision. Wristwear accounted for about 50% of the portable sensor market in 2015. Body clothing is further divided into clothing and underwear, armbands and leggings, smart socks, body-worn cameras, and chest straps.

Based on the region, the global market for military portable sensors is divided into Europe, Asia-Pacific, North America, Latin America, and the Middle East, and Africa. North America dominates in the market share of military portable sensors in 2016 and is likely to remain the same for years to come. As there is a greater need to improve military modernization efforts and significant investments to monitor and develop the health of the military, it is anticipated that the development of military platform data security is anticipated to feed the demand for portable military sensors in the coming years.
