As technology evolves, portable sensors are becoming more sophisticated, which leads to an increase in the range and precision of data collected every year.  A real gamechanger is the cloud-connected wearable. While the wearables made for consumers, such as smartwatches and fitness trackers, store data locally and upload occasionally, a cloud-connected device will send biometric data directly to the cloud, 24/7. This innovation offers a broad range of opportunities for healthcare professionals, athletics, and physically demanding occupations like police, fire brigade, and specific tasks in the manufacturing industry. In our whitepaper, we will take a closer look at these key application areas and explore how cloud-connected wearables can make a difference.
