This could help those with diabetes. Alongside smartwatches, smart clothes hearables and smart rings, are also becoming more and more popular and prove to be more efficient in collecting information for research in clinical settings.

The technological advancements aren’t just limited to gadgets worn by the body. Insideables as well as implantables are also being created. At present these microcomputers, which operate inside your body have already been utilized to aid organs like the brain and the heart function. Insideables, sometimes called smart pill, have been thought of by many as the next stage following external wearables. They are taken as an elongated capsule that transmits the measured results, like glucose levels or images from the inside of the body to help diagnose procedures. Because implantables and insideables are still in the early stages of development they will revolutionize healthcare in the coming future.
