Patches: Market Analysis and Forecasts
Smart clothing and body sensors can be considered the ultimate wearables, something that integrates into
your life as a garment, footwear, or a sensor device that can track or measure a specific physiological or
biometric attribute. Unlike fitness trackers, smart watches, or smart glasses, which have fairly well-defined
form factors and use cases, smart clothing and body sensors are seeing a greater degree of experimentation
and innovation in use cases. The applications for smart clothing and body sensors span multiple domains
including sports, consumer, healthcare, public safety, industrial, and enterprise.
The market for smart clothing and body sensors is developing rapidly, although the body sensors market is
likely to be larger in the long run due to a wider variety of device types and application markets. Healthcare is
expected to be one of the biggest drivers for body sensors, particularly connected wearable patches, but other
key application markets will include consumer, sports, enterprise, and industrial. Tractica forecasts that total
shipments of smart clothing will grow from 968,000 units in 2015 to 24.8 million units in 2021. Meanwhile,
body sensor shipments are expected to increase from 2.7 million in 2015 to 68.0 million units annually by 2021.
This Tractica report covers the global market for smart clothing and body sensors, including an in-depth
examination of market drivers and challenges, technology issues, and key industry players. The study provides
worldwide forecasts for unit shipments and revenue through 2021, segmented by device type, application
market, world region, and connectivity technology. Strategic recommendations are also provided for current
