![D. Safety
This category includes wearables that are meant to offer a safe environment for users. A fatigue
monitoring system, for example, can alert drivers who fall asleep behind the wheel and tell their
employers. As another example, wearable devices can collect data on air quality in mines to ensure
worker safety and reduce hazards for miners and expenses for employers.
WEARABLE IOT CHALLENGES AND FUTURE POSSIBILITIES
1) Data resolution of wearable devices: Because it is critical that the wearable device be pleasant to
wear and consume a low amount of energy, they are typically tiny in size and have lower resolution
sensors than nonwearable equipment.
2) Power consumption: To minimize human interaction and for wearable devices to operate for long
hours without replacing or charging the battery, special considerations are to be taken into account
while designing the wearables
3) Wearability: Wearable IoT devices must be comfortable for the user to wear. It is essential that
they are light and built in such a way that they aren't disruptive to the user's typical activities. One of
the biggest issues is balancing the complexity of computations with the weight of the wearable. [109]
introduces the concept of smart clothing, or wearable 2.0, for human-cloud integration, which aims to
tackle the problem of discomfort caused by wearing many sensors in different parts of the body for
health care applications.
4) Safety-wireless technologies are used by all wearable IoT devices to communicate sensed data to
another node, gateway, or base station. Because the transceiver antennas are so close to the user's
body, this wireless communication may expose him or her to harmful radiofrequency radiation.
5) Security-wearable IoT device complexity can frequently be minimized due to lightweight and low-
power consumption designs. As a result, those devices may have fewer robust security features. One
of the issues with wearable IoT devices is implementing security policies while keeping the system's
complexity as low as possible. Wearables, in general, are simple targets for thieves due to weak
encryption and protection.
Conclusion
Wearable IoT can open up a plethora of new possibilities in a variety of real-world applications. This
report provides a survey of the most important research initiatives in the fields of wearables and IoT.
Following the identification of more than one hundred papers as relevant literature in this domain,
the papers were analyzed and classified into four primary clusters depending on their applications.
The methodologies employed for each cluster were also classified.
When an integrated IoT system is available, wearables offer a lot of potential. As a result, the actual
value of merging wearables with IoT has gone unnoticed. Cellular IoT can also revolutionize the

Wearable IOT classification To classify the applications of wearable IoT and finish this survey, the most recent research works, papers, and articles in this field were collected first. This effort is carried out by scanning databases such as IEEE Xplore and the digital libraries of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). The connected works are then classified into clusters based on their application, and each research paper is assigned to one of the clusters, as illustrated in Figure 2. It can be seen that some of the clusters have a greater range of applications, owing to their prominence. Aside from the primary clusters, other wearable IoT devices are employed in different applications, such as virtual games to improve the gaming experience, payment applications, and education. Investigating these other possibilities. Each category is described in the following sections by listing the most notable works released in that field. A Health The IoT health wearable technology is primarily used for remote patient monitoring, treatment, and, in particular, rehabilitation. The sensors capture health-related data, and the gadget may do just a little processing before transmitting the user's or patient's health data to the Internet for additional analysis. The item may also receive data to allow the user to make an additional choice. B.Activity recognition This category comprises apps in which wearables are worn during sports activities to record different elements of the user's or athlete's activity in order to improve his or her performance. This cluster's applications also address data collection for the recognition of human and animal everyday activities. Although activity recognition has certain uses in medical diagnostics and out-of-hospital healthcare, the applications in this cluster involve use cases that do not belong to health. C. Tracking and localization This category includes programs in which wearables are worn during sports activities to record various parameters of the user's or athlete's activity in order to improve his or her performance. This cluster's applications additionally tackle data collection for the recognition of human and animal everyday activities. Although activity recognition has certain uses in medical diagnostics and out-of- hospital health care, the applications in this cluster involve use cases that are not related to health.

Manufacturers and developers frequently concentrate on enhancing user interface design, offering user-friendly setup procedures, clear documentation, and proactive feedback management through updates and enhancements in order to address these issues. What specific features do users frequently mention as positive or negative in their reviews of fitness bands? Wearable technology allows us to track our fitness levels, track our whereabouts via GPS, and receive text messages more rapidly. Best of all, most of the technologies that enable us to do so are hands- free and portable, removing the need for us to take our devices out of our pockets. The primary reason smart watch customers acquired was for convenience, and more than a third (35%) purchased to support their smartphone addiction. In comparison, the capacity to self-monitor, together with concern for their health, was cited as a major reason by the majority (57%) of fitness band customers. Smart watches' disadvantages include their reliance on technology and the necessity for frequent recharge. They also have a shorter lifespan than traditional timepieces and can rapidly become
