The increasing popularity of smart manufacturing is necessitating the demand for wearable devices to collect and transmit real-time data from workers to optimise processes, facilitate predictive maintenance, and improve decision-making. Reportedly, 49% of food and beverage manufacturers have adopted smart manufacturing as of 2023. As different sectors, including food and beverage, implement smart manufacturing, wearables tailored to meet the specific needs of different processes are witnessing a surge in demand.
The growing development of wearable exoskeletons (wearable robots) to reduce musculoskeletal injuries and lower worker compensation claims is boosting the industrial wearable devices market revenue. In June 2023, Comau and IUVO, in collaboration with Esselunga, developed a wearable exoskeleton to minimise lower back fatigue during repetitive and lifting tasks. Moreover, advancements in technology are also leading to the development of smart exoskeletons that can integrate with other wearable devices such as sensor-equipped garments and smart helmets to enhance the safety and productivity of workers.
With the rising trend of personalised safety, key players are creating industrial wearable devices that can track individual health metrics like blood oxygen levels, heart rates, fatigue, body temperature, and stress levels to provide personalised alerts to workers. Besides, the growing awareness regarding the impact of fatigue on industrial accidents is surging the demand for industrial wearable devices that can identify workers at risk of fatigue-related accidents.
