The market segment for artificial intelligence (AI)-powered wearables will grow 376 percent annually in 2017 to reach 60 million units, according to a new Counterpoint Technology Market Research report.
Indeed, the introduction of artificial intelligence in wearables like smartwatches and “hearables,” or technically advanced, electronic in-ear-devices, will drive growth for the wearable segment in 2017, officials of the report said.
Commenting on the analysis, Parv Sharma, research associate said, “Wearables haven’t seen the expected momentum so far because they have struggled on the lines of a stronger human computer interaction, which can enable powerful experiences.
